COLORS: Orchid and Sand FLOWER: Orchid Chrysanthemum HISTORY OF CLASS OF ’33 If you can for the space of a few minutes look back once more to the year of 1921 —we'll endeavor to picture for you our struggles, pleasures, and sorrows, those twelve years following that great occasion, the first day of school. In 1921, a class of thirty-eight pupils entered the old red South School to begin their long struggle for an education. It seems that our class must have grown considerably from that first year in both number and intelligence, until at length we had completed our elementary education, and entered upon four years of High School. We know all of you Seniors will agree with us, that our Freshman year in High School was the happiest, most exciting time that we ever hope to again experience. We entered High School with the largest class on record; we were one hundred twelve in number. A great deal of credit, goes to our Freshman Class Adviser—Miss Helen Bechtolt. She helped our class through their first green year, and saw us acquire enough wisdom to be classified as Sophomores, ready for what ever might be our fortunes. Our second year seemed to be at hand before we realized it. Miss Wendt-land was our Adviser. What would we have done without her? She always seemed to keep a fresh supply of clever ideas on hand for our pep meetings. Yes, we know that we didn’t carry off the Loyalty Banner that year—but we did have the honor of winning first place on our table decorations—in both our first and second years. During all of the rush that always seems to follow exams, and preparation for Loyalty Feast, a very great shock was in store for us, that was indeed to bring grief to the hearts of many of our fellow class mates, Wilbert Wolters met with sudden death, icontinued on 26] [15]
