Ruth Wilson, Leota Wallace, Dorothy Zanders, lda When our Class of '26 entered Rantoul High. we numbered thirty-five. We entered with a determination to help make Rantoul High one of the best in the state. We organized during the early part of the year and elected Doris Brown as president, Mae McCain as secretary-treasurer, and Miss Fuller as our class advisor. We were active in all school activities. W. Mulliken and K. Morgan were the basketball players: R. Starkey and M. Ainsworth were the tenor singers in the boys' chorusg and we all took part in the literary program when called upon. We had two important parties during this stage of life. The summer vacation seemed rather short, but in the fall of '23 we re- turned to dear R. T. H. S. with a stronger determination than the preceding year. We chose Merrill Ainsworth as president, Myrle Meneley as secretary- treasurer, and Miss Fuller as our advisor. Bill went South and Myrle quit school, and we chose Ida Zanders and Gertrude Drinkwalter to take their re- spective places. We had more people on both the literary and athletic teams this year. Out of the many that were in the preliminaries, lda was the only one to represent our class in the county meet. Each class gave a stunt, but none excelled the one we gave. We received a skin engraved in ink, which may be seen to-day hanging on the wall in the corridor. We had a great many social events in this year, the first being a party held at John Meuser'sg next we had a party at Lena Susdorf's. Soon after this we had another party at Ruth Gordon's. To close the school year properly, we had a party at Crystal Lake Park, the Wednesday following the dismissal of school. The same group entered, with a few new ones, prepared to assume the responsibilities of a junior Class. The new ones were Ruth White, Pauline Swearingen, Evelyn Carr, Charles Condit, Lee Sheuring, Olena Cole, and Eva Mae Gerdes. ' The last big function of the year for which every junior lives was the Junior-Senior Banquet. The RECl':'.PTlON was held April twenty-fourth in the First Methodist Church. The Juniors entertained the Seniors in a very pleasant and enjoyable manner. The room was beautifully decorated and a very good program was given by the juniors. Next year we expect to return as the Senior Class of '26 to assume the re- sponsibilities of the Seniors. We are going to do all in our power to build R. T. H. S. and make it a better school. -PAGE TWENTY-FOUR-
