THE CHAOS ---■ CLASS WILL Being of sane mind, but expecting to soon depart from this school life, we, the Senior Class of 1932, wish to express our desires as to the dis- tribution of our possessions among those who have yet to live some months in this stormy existence. With our last breath, we entreat those concerned to respect our desires and fulfill them to the best of their ability. I, Phyllis Daugherty, do bequeath to Leota Masterson my petite being, with best wishes. I, Elsie Axen, will my blonde locks and green comb to Madelyn Spain, hoping she will profit from them. I, Gaylord Hershberger, bequeath my snappy playing on the hard- wood to Tom Yeoman, hoping he may be as successful with it as I was. I, Helen Hilliard, do bequeath my lack of avoirdupois to Elizabeth Ramey, for I know how much she has envied me for it. I, Robert Clouse, do will my ink-stained fingers to my successor in the print shop, and also a tube of ink remover, if he can find it. (I never could.) I, Virginia Shindler, do bequeath my sunny smile and shiny nose to Lucille Smith. (Remodeling done for a small sum.) I, Marcella Grant, leave my geometric ability to any student of Euclid and Miss Spencer who wants it and can use it. I, John Sage, bequeath to any or all Juniors the natural ability of all Seniors to talk long and say little. I, Francis Morrissey, will my hot cracks to Jess Blankenship. I, Kathryn Baumgartner, do will my brown eyes and the active use of them to Janet Sigo, on the condition that she give them back to me for use at school next year. I, Monica Smith, give my speedy fingers on the ivories to Bebe Wash- burn. This additional ability should make her capable of even greater accomplishments and accompaniments. I, Everett Morton, bequeath to Laurence Bauman my sweet and serene temper. I, Frank Kepner, do bequeath my farming experience and agricul- tural knowledge to Ellis Kelley. I, Mary Jeanette Myers, will my oratorical capabilities to Frances Murphy, and my uncovered talents to Jean Smith. 1932 Page twenty-two
