IIIIIIII' 'll' 'I T H E T I G E R I' 'll' 'llUII' IT Seniors coinhine-d their efforts to sponsor tl1e Faculty Reception. Then the Junior party. Following this the annual Junior play, Green Stockings, was presented in November. This was a very able effort on the part of the Juniors, and was directed in an effective inanner by Miss Fetherston. Then in May came the first chance at the annual Junior- Senior Prom. They inade a real job of this and had an all around good tilne. This third year was really one of enjoyinent for the class. All were looking at the world through rose-colored glasses. Then for the third time, they watched the Seniors pass forever out of the life of P. H. S. Sadness was in all hearts, for they knew that the next time it would be their turn. The last year, joy and sorrow alternated in the souls ot' the eorning graduates. Per- haps they'd graduate, perhaps they wouldn't. Either way had its sorrow. This last year, the Class was a dignilied, understanding group. For their leaders, they chose the following: President, Dick xViLlII1il1'liQ Vice President, John Scott, Secretary, Violet Beezley, Treasurer, Art Rapp. This year they were the leaders, hut soon others would take their places. This was a year ot work for all. Everyone was busy, for having charge of the production ot' the Tiger,'l the Senior play, parties and the Prom, there was much to he aceoinplished. lt was a joyous year for all, even though they were about to he graduated, Ht either for work or more education. Then on that eventful day ot June 10th, 1932, the Class ot' '32 took their leave ot good old Princeton High. But in the language ot the circus, 'tthe show nnist go onwgand so it goes on . . on . . forever on. ' X272 7 1 R. Page Twenty

Fil 'IIUII' 'll' 'I T H E T I G E R I' 'II' 'IIUII' Illfi Senior Class Historq X2 'Twas a day in September in '28 The first day ot' school at Princeton High was about to get started, when lo and behold! Approximately eighty lf'reslnnen were to be seen battling valiantly in an attempt to get into the spacious zuiditoriuin first. Oh yes, they were finally calmed down, but it took real courage and bulldog tenacity to manage. lt seems as if these green yearlings should have been at least awe st1'uck at being in high school, but outside of losing themselves in the corridors, they acted very much at home. They struggled tln'ough the first few days of the old grind in excellent order, but then came the time for class elections. The great political minds of the class combined their several talents and succeeded in electing Gail Castner as President, Evelyn Al- paugh as Vice President, Kent Cain as Secretary, and Kathleen Moran as Treasurer. lVhat rejoicing and gaiety now that the terrific strain of campaigning, voting, etc., were over! Now, the class could get down to business, and it did. They staged a Hallowelen party under the direction of Miss Howard that was a classic in the art of entertainment. Right up to snuff those dumb 'tFreshies, for they even danced at this first function. lt looked like the material for a snappy class. They struggled through the year with some semblance of brilliancy, and gladly watched the Seniors take their parting in June. The next year was a different story. The lowly, nntamed Freshman was a dignity now . . . someone to be looked up to . . . someone to be respected . . . a mighty person- age of intellect and knowledge, for wasn't he a Sophomore? This time, the class assem- bled with all due dignity, and without clamor or furor, to again elect leaders of the motley outfit. This time the high and mighties elected were: President, Bruce Grant, Vice President, Lester Peterson, Secretary, Aldean Duffield, Treasurer, Deah Enyart. Once again, now that leaders were in charge, concentration of activities was started. An all school picnic started things off with a bang. Then the party, the annual Sophomore banquet and various minor functions helped to liven things up. Big things were begin- ning to be expected from this determined bunch. Then once again June came, and with it, of course, another Commencement. This time, the Seniors were bidden good-bye with just a bit more sadness and respect, for it would be only two years before they would be saying farewell to dear old Almah Manta. The return to school in the Fall gave the group a new lease on life. Now they were upper-classmen. All respect and obedience was due them. Maybe they didn't get it, but at any rate they thought it was due them. For the third time, all were assem- bled to ponder on the candidates for election to official capacities. They selected a mot- ley bunch composed of: Audrey Anderson as President, Dick lvitllllilfli as Vice Presi- dent, Lester Peterson as Secretary, and Minna Lue Hoover as Treasurer. Robert Bur- gess was chosen as Cheer Leader. Things were one great big' social whirl in this third year. First the gang'l and the Page Nineteen
