Pot 0 Gold HlSTOIlY---GLASS 0F JMIIIARY, 1937 By WAvA ALTHAUS The Iirst mid-year class, consisting of about one hundred students, entered South High in January, 1931. After the first few weeks of confusion, we settled down to our regular routine. Miss Ethel Asher, our supervisor, aided us. We were never organized alone until our senior year but were combined with the regular classes. Our elections were also held with the other classes. As eighth graders, occupying three home rooms. we became thoroughly es- tablished at South. Mrs. C. E. Gaskins, nee Miss Elizabeth Harter, supervised us and assisted in the election, in which Carl Spahr was chosen vice president and Jack Ciriflith, reporter. We felt very grown up in our Freshman year and were proud that in the election of officers, Robert Workman, one of our group, was chosen president. This year 'Miss Helen Shanahan was our supervisor. During our Sophomore year many school activities were open to us. Our class was well represented in sports, cheerleading, dramatics, and music. In the election, under the supervision of Mr. C. E. Sinclair, one of our members, Eu- gene Feigh, was chosen reporter. In our Junior year the class consisted of about thirty students. The term passed swiftly and uneventfully under the direction of Miss Marie Bowlus. We aided the regular junior class in presenting the play, Digging Up the Dirt. Members of the cast from our group were Jack Grifhth, Howard Burnette, and Frank Ley. We also assisted the other classes in sponsoring a magazine cam- paign. and with the proceeds from this and from the play, we entertained the Seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Prom at Shawnee Country Club on May 29. At the beginning of our last school year, guided by Mr. C. E. Ciaskins, our class was organized, and for the first time we chose our own oflicers. who were as follows: president, Robert Workman: vice president, Carl Spahr: secretary, Wava Althaus: treasurer, Eugene Eeigh. We sponsored the Sophomore-Junior-Senior dance held April 24, 1936. We gave no play. but our class was represented by Eugene Feigh in the Senior play put on by the class of '36. At the annual carnival Robert Miller reigned as king. William Tonelf had the leading role in this year's operetta, Hollywood Bound. The president appointed the following committees for our final affairs at South: announcements-William Toneff, Wayne Swick, Wava Althaus: class day-Kermit Miller, Eugene Eeigh, 'Howard Burnette, Wava Althaus. Ruth Swaney: memorial-Jean Bice, Wayne Swick, Robert Miller, Vernon Patterf son: dress-girls, Jean Bice, Ruth Swaney: boys, Carl Spahr, Jack Curiffith: class will?Wiliam Toneff, Carl Spahr: prophecy-Ruth Swaney, Robert Workman: history-Wava Althaus: poem-Robert Workman, William Toneff. We made our last informal appearance at South on Class Day, January 21. On Sunday, January 24. we attended Baccalaureate service, and on Wednesday, the 27th, a dinner at Lost Creek, followed by a theater party. We received our diplomas Thursday, the 28th-Commencement night at Memorial Hall.
