CN C' Jlle Centennial .Jiger 1858-IQ58 CLASS GF 1938 One hundred years ago today an ambitious little unincorporated village replaced what is now known as the city of Princeton. Rather insignifi- cant though sure of importance and growth, it be- gan the steady climb to the top. Four years ago an ambitious little group of incorporated Freshmen took the place of those who are now known as Seniors.'l We, too were rather insignificant but were eager for our ascent to the high crest. Life was new to us and oh so grand! With so many rooms to remember, so many Sophomores to avoid and so many things to look forward to the Freshies began worrying about burning the candle at both ends I Realizing such possible pit-falls the problem of organizing presented itself as a gift bestowed only on these favorite bewildered children. Because of his tower of strength and protective abilities Homer Raker seemed the best head of the house for this huge family. To reign and assist him with such charges Betty Horton was chosen to mother us. Though we seldom heard the minutes Max Kasbeer had unlimited abilities as our secretary to say nothing of the great financier, Walter Neill. Miss Turner and Mr. Lowry were given the honor of being our god parents. The second step of the small village came some- time later when it became an Incorporated Village. Likewise the Freshmen advanced a year to the class of Sophomores, those people who know what its all about and enjoy letting the Freshies know it. With the departure of Miss Turner, Miss Cecile Malsbury moved in step with Mr. Lowry to con- trol the lusty troup and Carolyn McManis received the robe of Presidency with james Tedrow for stooge or in her absence the title of Vice President, Secretary john Swan, a man of affairs, and Jeanne Kasbeer to play with the coins. This year's most important event was the Sopho- more banquet. The theme was the song Beautiful Blue Danube which was sung by our own Shadow Cable and also songs by Margaret Simp- son. Parties seemed gayer and more grown-uppish as we became a year older. Now it was a city with the aldermanic form of government. On and on the village goes with few faltering steps and eyes ever upward. Three years in high school seemed to have made us a bit trying. It seemed we had worn out first Miss Turner and then Miss Malsbury, but now Miss Bell with an I-can-take-it look in her eyes lifts the burden from Mr. Lowry who has had to grin and bear it faithfully these past years. Francis Bouxsein played his master hand at President with john Cable as Vice President, Marjorie Thomas, Secretary, Carolyn McManis, Treasurer. Bringing to the surface our talents the juniors presented in November, 1937, The Whole Town's Talkingl' under guidance of Mr. Frank P. Delay. Thoroughly assured of our position in so- ciety the class dressed formally to attend the junior-Senior Prom, a marked gala occasion. At last it seemed the village had succeeded, for in March it wore its honor and advancement full upon its breast as flags adorned its streets and pride filled its heart. It is now under commis- sion form of government but is still as ambitious as that unincorporated village a hundred years back. So, too, must all good things end and hearts grow heavy as the close draws near. Now we are Seniors and the years have fled since that first September morn in 1934. To lead us this last year we looked to Martha Zearing as President and Dallas Prather as Vice President, Marjorie Thomas Secretary, and Loretta Brown Treasurer. Miss Bell and Mr. Lowry receive our admiring devotion for their faithful and helpful service. The Senior play, The Ghost Flies Southl' was directed by Miss Constance Nicholas and was a success from the minute the curtains opened. Visions of a cap and gown meet our gaze as the last junior-Senior Prom we shall attend passes. The Baccalaureate, and lastly it drifts from a vision to reality as Commencement looms forth. Hearts are fainter, school days sweeter as the classes intermingle, for the Commencement dance. The 'lTiger is published and the days ahead are quite as bewildering as when we took our first Freshmen steps. Fond memories are tied with pink and blue ribbons and laid away to always be re- membered. AJ we wel, Wfe 11111.17 part, Eye! are wel, Sad om' hearty. -MARGARET SiMPsoN
