The Roundup 1937 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Class Officers Paul Linke-----------------------------President Jean Anderson -------------- Secretary-Treasurer Jean Stratton--------------Class Representative Miss Josie Lacer Hays Sponsor. On September 5, 1933, over seventy greenhorns enrolled as Frosh in good old R. H. S. On September 8, without the supervision of the Sophomores, we whitewashed the “R”. Miss Hays was chosen as our class sponsor. Our big activity of the year was our dance, which proved very successful. Thus, we completed our first year of high school. When we became sophomores, we had a great feeling of superiority over the Freshmen; however, time soon carried away that feeling, anil we went to work in earnest. We are proud of the fact that, as Sopho mores, we organized the first Chess Club in Rawlins High. Also during this year several of our class members made a good showing in high school athletics. Adding to our accomplishments of that year, we held a Christmas dance, which was very lively and which had an excellent attendance. As Juniors, we entered a new life—we were upper classmen. This year was to be a busy one for us, as we had many new duties to perform. One of the main events was our Junior “Follies,” which was enjoyed by the students and by the community very much. On the evening of May 25, 1936, we were hosts at the Junior-Senior Prom—banquet and dance— and this was a delightful success. We fulfilled our duties as upper class-men well, doing our best to set a good example for the lower classmen. At the end of the year Frank Miller was elected Student Body President, and William Felton was elected Editor-in-Chief of the “Exhaust” and the Annual. When we, the class of ’37, entered our Senior year, we felt very proud and grown-up. Looking back over the three previous years, we see that we have accomplished many things, and, looking ahead, we see many, many, more things that we are still to accomplish. In the last part of March, the old and original members of the Chess Club initiated the new members and turned the club over to them. On April 30, we held Senior Day. In the afternoon, we gave a very amusing and interesting assembly, which was based on the different sections of a newspaper and which had the students of the class illustrate the various divisions; and that evening we had a most enjoyable dance. The decorations were very elaborate and added attractions were the confetti, serpentine, and favors. The class play, “I’ll Remember You,” was given on May 10, and was a most successful presentation. Now, as we journey on to the new and higher things in life, we hold in our hearts a deep and everlasting remembrance of our high school days. As a good-bye, all of the classmen wish to say, “Thank you, Miss Hays, our sponsor, and all the rest of the faculty for the splendid interest and guidance you have given us through these memorable years, and may your lives be filled with great blessings; and also, farewell Rawlins High!” —Paid Linke, President
