The Chaos 17 mwt (EksB Bisinrg President Donald Cornwell Vice President George Ballinger Secretary Julia Randle Historian James Hopkins Sponsor H. P. House Pour short years ago, we, the Senior Class of 1924, entered High School. Most of us had vague ideas of the work which would be re- quired of us. The office was an awe inspiring place to keep away from. After a few weeks of routine work the sharp edges of the Freshmen were worn off, and school proceeded smoothly until Janu- ary, when we Freshies received our first impressions of finals. Maurice Hammond was elected class president, and did much to help us get a good start. Almost before we were aware of the fact school was dismissed for the Summer. After three short months had passed we were back in the old building again. This time we had some one to look down on, for we were Sophomores. Our class was beginning to be noticed, because of the athletes and scholars who were shining forth. Max Robinson was elected class president. After tcjlipg two yeajs w:e reached the exalted position of upper classmen. Maurice Hammond, proving himself a popular and able leader, was again chosen class president, and helped to put over one cf cur most successful years. The success of the prom was largely due to his unceasing efforts. LaVerne Paulus, having developed into a star, was elected captain of the ' 23 basketball team. At last we are Seniors. After three years of arduous toil we have reached the coveted portion of the north side of the assembly. Donald Cornwell was elected class president, and showed himself to be a popular leader by guiding us safely through our last year. Our class has produced its share of leaders: football, basketball, and track cap- tains, Chaos and Rensselaerien editors, a yell leader, class executives, and a Sunshine Society president. And now my friends we are out in the co ' d, cold, world.
