 AURORA 19 2 7 The Gym Exhibition gave another chance for the Juniors to excel and again we did not disappoint the audience. On Class Day for the Seniors we were given the ‘'Horn which has been handed down every year for over thirty years to the following class. Due to trouble arising over the “Horn” this year, this fine old custom was ended, which we and alumni of the school deeply regret. June twenty-sixth soon came and we left our school for the second time to enjoy the freedom of two months vacation. 1926-1927 On September seventh, we came back for the third and last time to dear Old Saginaw High with only one hundred and forty-one left in our ranks. Having grown a little older and we hope, a little wiser we resumed our studies in the building that will long be remembered in after years. At our first class meeting we elected those few students to the offices of our class, who, we knew, would make our third and last year the most suc- cessful of our High School career. They were honored as follows: President...................John C. Mulholland Vice-President Betty Curtis Secretary...................Rosemary Cornwell Treasurer.................................Vaclav Vanek Rosemary Cornwell Student Union Council -J?ck f ' ancis Hazel hrost William Witheridge ‘‘A Full House was staged this year as the Senior Play. The very capable cast certainly held the audience and attained a real success. On February fourth, the first musical comedy ever attempted in Saginaw was presented by our High School. We held the honor of having all the lead- ing characters chosen from the Senior Class. The comedy was entitled “Leave It To Jane”, and was played before a very appreciative audience at the City Auditorium. The Senior Party held the interest of many, but most of them were mid- year students who were graduating in February. Due to the eighty minute periods and many added outside activities not many Seniors were able to take part in the Gym Ex., but the few who did surely helped to make it a success. Many changes have been wrought in S. H. S. during our stay here, but the most important of all is the Student Union Plan which our class helped to make a success. It is June sixteenth. Graduation Day. Tomorrow we are Alumni. ROBERT EARLE BOYSE, RETA MORDEY. Page Ttccntgscvcn

AURORA 19 2 7 History of the Class of 1927 1924-1925 -H ) I'-''' e tl,e Class of l')27. entered Saginaw I ligli School on September (LaL third, we were no doubt the greenest class of Sophomores that ever entered the school, in one respect, for we had spent our Freshman year at the new Central Junior High School and knew nothing of the ways and traditions of our new home. Nevertheless we soon showed we could learn quickly. From an army of three hundred and forty-one we elected the following officers to guide us through the year. President...........................Jack Francis Vice-President.......................Tom Preston Secretary........................William Simpson Treasurer..........................Norma Osborne Student Council.............. Katherine Sommers (Louis Butenschoen March twenty-fourth claimed the attention of every Sophomore, for it was then we had the “Zenith'’ of our social events, known as the “Sophomore Spread’’. Many of us were glad when spring vacation rolled around, but Old Father Time moved so quickly that we were ,80011 back in school with only two months before the end of June. In June some of us participated in the annual Gym Exhibition for the first time, and then is was not long before the ending of our Sophomore year. 1925-1926 Our army of three hundred and forty-one had dwindled to one hundred and eighty when we came back for the second time on September ninth. At our first class meeting we again voted for those who, we thought, were capable of leading us through our second year. They were elected as follows: President Vice-President Secretary....... Treasurer...... Student Council John C. Mulholland .....Vincent Nasl Louis Butenschoen Mary Etter J Beatrice Schrock ..(Merle Baum We chose for our first dramatic offering to Saginaw High School a farce comedy, “What Happened to Jones”. Judging from the reception the audience gave our play, we scored a big hit both financially and dramatically. Again spring vacation rolled around and we were released from the ties of our studies and the gloom of the class rooms. Nevertheless we were just as glad to get back as we were to be dismissed.
