Those Seniors who had important parts in the opera “Katinka,” were: Everett Hale, Gladys Doty, Horace Harby, Jack Neville, Elliott Bogert, Della Wasson, Ann Hartelius, and Verna Knight. We feel that we have been equally successful both in scholarship and extra-cur- ricular activities. Grateful classes are forever wont to sing praises to their advisors; but we could sing “laudamus te” “ad infinitum and not adequately express our gratitude. Thank you, Miss Gleditzsch. PAGE 13
