11 5 si as t it We Q Q A W. W Class History iii production, A Scream in the Dark. Afteriq-r'i'ine months of sailing, we landed safely in l Sophomore Bay for a brief period to take on ,fuel and overhaul our vessel in preparation ,for further voyages. V' QQZQ August 30, l937, our ship sailed proudly out of the bay into the high seas in quest of more knowledge. For thisi voyage, we had selected Miss Stairrett and Mr. Barnes to serve as pilots, Bob Lowther captain, Jim Wooten, co-captain, Lola Mae McClure, ship's recorder, Virginia 'X Byrd, ship's purser. On this trip the passengers again enjoyed the ship's orchestra, band, drum corps, glee clubs, and as recreational enioyment, our passengers joined in the sports provided as: football, bas- ketball, and volley ball. The dramatic production, Cyclone Sally, was the outstanding event of this voyage. We landed safely in Junior Harbor where we were dry docked for repairs. On September 6, l938, after all necessary repairs had been made and our ship had been refueled, we set off on the third and more hazardous lap of our voyage. For this trip out we selected Miss Stairrett and Mr. Rankin as pilots, Barbara Dardenne, captain, James Wooten, co-captain, Irene Oliver, ship's recorder and purser. Before we were many days out, one of our most dependable men, Bob Podgorny, was lost at sea. We did not give up the voyage, but resolved to follow the high ideals and ambitions that he had placed before us to Keep on Keeping On. As our seniority increased, so did our interest on board ship. For on this trip we furnished many members for the orchestra, boys' glee club, girls' glee club, band, drum corps, football, basketball, volley ball, baseball, track, scholarship contests, and music contests. Three of our member's names--Mona Clare Gibson, Harold Lyons, and Dean Shirley-were placed on the ship's honor roll. . The chief dramatic entertainment of this voyage was our play, Mama's Baby Boy. Six bells and the Junior-Senior banquet was served to the retiring members, the seniors, and now our ship is again dry docked and ready for its major voyage to Senior Island.
