Senior Class History Hur class of lfliil in its four years in the High School has been drawn more closely together than any other class that we know. As we think of those Freshman days when we were one hundred and llllle strong, scattered over four report rooms, we realize how fully we have become identified with each other in the course of our lite together. .ln 213, the new Senior Room, this last year ot our days in high school. are left only forty-six brilliant students who have striven for eleven years to reach the twelfth and last grade. VVe seven who, starting into Kindergarten together formed the nucleus of our group, added ten to our number in the first grade. 'We greatly regret the loss of so many during the high school years. but such things cannot be avoided. From those dear old Freshman days until the very last of our school life we have shown our loyalty to the school and our class. VVe accomplished this in several ditt'e1-ent ways: - Our debaters upheld the school in both our Junior and Senior years. Last year we reached the county semi-finals-this year the hV6St8I'11 Pennsylvania semi-finals. llesides debaters our class boasts of an orator and a clarinet soloist, both of whom are champions of Allegheny County. A reader representing our school, too, has added to our reputation. Dramatic ability is very prevalent among us. The successes ot many of the school plays were due to members of our illustrious class. As salesmen we cannot be surpassed. We were once rewarded with a half day 's vacation tor selling the most tickets in the school. Then, too, we made the Sewihi ol' this year possible by our determined efforts. During the football season ot our Junior year, the girls earned seventy-six dollars selling hot dogs. This is the very best record known in the school 's history. The success of our Prom was inevitable, because we had no financial worries. Probably all our successes are due to the fact that taken as a whole we are a very intelligent group. This was proven by our intelligence tests grades, which ranked higher than average high school classes. Now that ctmmniencement is upon us, we find that it has not the lure and excitement we expected. On the contrary, it is with regret that we leave the life ot' which we for so long have been a part.
