History of the Class of '33 With many achievements added to the history of the school, the class of 1933 bade farewell to Roosevelt. Following the tradition left by preceding graduates, this class when juniors, sponsored the three athletic dances, thus firmly establishing this custom. When the inter-class track-meet was held in l932, this group showed good sportsmanship by cleaning the fishpond as the penalty for defeat. When the Senior Play, The Patsy,U was given, these juniors selfishly perhaps, but looking forward to their Prom, sold enough tickets to warrant a third perform- ance. The officers in the junior year were as follows: Oakley Hunter, president, Robert Blau, vice-president, Laurell Arnold, secretary-treasurer, Paris Thomas, yell leader, Thomas Boyd, sergeant-at-arms. November fifth was a big night in the Senior Calendar. After many discussions involving a decision between a Prom and a Dinner-Dance, the Prom finally won out. Dorsey Dwelle, the Senior Class President, had serious difhculty in making the boys get their Udatesn. As a result, an edict was issued that this would be the last Prom given, unless the next class made a special request. For the Prom a futuristic silver deer motif was used with blue, coral, and black as colors for the favors, programs, and decorations. The Jazz Orchestra bought some new numbers for this special occasion. The Prom over, the January class was then faced with the problem of choosing a Baccalaureate speaker. Dr. Leonard Oschsli was the one chosen. A class of forty students graduated on the twenty-sixth of January with the motto: Let us be seen by our deedsf' The student speakers for commencement were Dorsey Dwelle, Hugo Kazato, and William Otto, Jr. Rev. Luther E. Stein addressed the graduates on The Great American Sneeru. He began his speech with the remark, I don't see why you have an outside speaker when you have such splendid orators here in your own school. lt was with this idea in mind that the June class decided to have only student speakers. To he what we are, and to become what we are capable of becoming was the motto of the largest class to graduate from Roosevelt. Commencement took place on June seventh. The speakers were Lowell Firstenberger, Oakley Hunter, Edwina Riley and Alvin Walker. Saluting a class flag of orchid and green, the class said adieu to its Alma Mater, wishing its successors the best of luck and happiness. Twenty-one
