THE SQHIAN1930 CLASS WILL STUDIQNTS, FACULTY, AND FUTURE Slixlolzsz XVC, the immortal class of january, 1930, being about to pass out of this institution of learn- ing, in the full possession of an intelligent understanding of all that was taught, and some that wasn't taught, and realizing the sore need of' help for the future Seniors, do hereby make and publish this, our last will and testament, hoping that this dear school may proht by our experience. PART l Item- I Our Senior dignity we hand down to our rightful successors, the Class of June, 1930. May they uphold it forever with all seriousness and gravity, endeavoring to realize its vast im- portance, in spite of their natural light-mindedness and irresponsibility. Item I1 We will to the june Class our Chapel seatsg and may they endeavor to lill them as ad- vantageously, as promptly, and as faithfully as we have done. We hope these seats will inspi1'e them to loosen their tongues Cas if they aren't loose enough nowlj for it seems that they are very shy about their class yell. PART H The following may seem but triiling bequests but we hope they may be accepted, not-as worthless things carelessly thrown away, but as valuable assets. to those who may receive them, and as a continual reminder of the generosity of heart displayed in the bestowal. 1. John Beckman wills his power of ruling the class with an iron hand to ,lutz Mihalik tmay the June class have as many geniuses at arguingl. 2. Virginia Shelley's cheerfulness we leave to Mabel Solomon. 3. Russell Keller and Rebecca Rlclfee will the Manhood and Womaiihoocl cups to any Senior boy and girl that may qualify. 4. Herman Klein wills his ability to do a thousand and one tasks and still lead the class honor roll to whomever wishes it. 5. Joe Amrein and Paul Stark will their ability to pick out good-looking girls to Paul Chapman and Bob Roush. 6. Carl Larson leaves his bashful ways to Vernon Sir Louis. 7. Paul Fegancher's habit of forgetting to shave is left to Lewis Hartz. 8. Freda Cutright wills her secret of keeping slim to Leitha Harr. 9. Harry Gerinls reputation for making every cent count is willed to Harry Coorsh. 10. Frank Yehl's ability to graduate in six years is left to Gene Fink. 11. For live dollars Gil Voorhees will leave his baby Lincoln to Andy Royka so that she will not have to walk home in the snow. 12. Bennie Kosich wills his ability to convince the teachers wrong is right and black is white to Claude Drybread. 13. Bill Hieber wills his flat tires to Don Sours. Besides these gifts we leave, not of necessity, but of our own free-will, our blessings, tender memories of our pleasant associations together, our apology for anything we may not have appreciated in the past. and a pledge of friendship henceforth and forever. NVe, the class of january, 1930, bid the principal, teachers, and students a most regretful farewell. CSignedj CLASS OF JANUARY, 1930. XVe do hereby constitute and appoint Miss Martha Blaider and Mr. R. G. Anderson as executors of our estate. lYitnesses : WK O. MacBRAIR K. L. BURRELL. page forty-two

THE SOI-IIAN---i19w30 CLASS PROPHECY Here in the crystal, as it slowly clears, I see a mammoth circus, with its billowy tents and busy side shows. A deep-voiced gentleman named Bennie Kosich is the barker. At one side of the show in the small office of the president and general manager, our old class presi- dent, john Beckman. Under the big canvas cover Kellie Profich, Frances Pansler, and Alice Kelly have gained renown as aerial performers. A very industrious salesman by the name of Donald Hardesty is endeavoring to sell the spectators peanuts and popcorn. Don always was a high-powered salesman, with that grim determination to make a sale. Ah, he has a customer, who is buying peanuts for the family. It happens to be Mr. and Mrs. ,Iac Beighey Qformerly Margaret Derhammerl and family. I see another picture-this time a prominent night club and cabaret. The owners are none other than Carl Larson and Bill Macliirair. Sam Thomas is also employed here as Chief Bouncer. The place is rather dull this evening. Mary hlcQuaid and Iaul lfegancher. popular dance artists, are the featured attractions at the club this week. ln one corner of the club there is a large party going on: its members are Kenneth NYoods. Sara Smith, Helen Bricker, Frank Yehl, and Alice Klinger. I see Hollywood, The crystal shows a former schoolmiate, Annabelle Dietz, now a famous movie actress. In her latest picture she sings the theme song, 'Alle may be bred in old Ken- tucky, but he's only a crumb to me. Donald Schlemmer is now editor of one of the Movie- Star Magazines, and is one of the most popular men in llollywood. The crystal turns a little and I see a large room furnished with furniture imported from England. On the door is written, Russell Keller. He is president of a large manufac- turing corporation. I-le is dictating a letter to his secretary, Virginia Shelley, who was an old school flame of his. Mr. Keller's wife tformerly Mardell NVeinl and several old classmates of theirs come to call. Rebecca McKee, who- is doing feature-writing for the Beacon Journal, calls on him for an interview. Velma I-itz, Thelma Lewis, Gerald Richards, and James Schindewolf all call and discuss those happy days spent at South High. I learn that Joe :Xmrein and Paul Stark are the proprietors of a very popular Ladies' Shoppe. Gilbert Voorhees and Herman Klein are famous aviators, and each owns his own plane,- at least they have paid the lirst payments on them. Kathryn Xeiheiser and Freda Cutriglit have a dancing studio. Their specialty is teaching football players to dance. Eugene Sumerix is the owner of a circuit of theaters. Faye Prentice is contemplating swimming the English Channel on her back. Catherine Porter and Eva Mendel have opened up a beauty parlor in New York. Lucille Swigart is doing practice-teaching in a little rural school in Kenmore. Pearl Camp has at last found her man, and is keeping her home nice and cozy for him. John Rellett and Harry Gerin have joined the police force. Paul Bennett has also been very successful. He has 5.000 men working under him.-but then, I see he is working on the top floor of the R. F. Goodrich Company. Norman Xlvilhelm, through very hard study in preparing for the ministry, is now pastor of the Furnace Street Mission. Mary Facsko is head nurse at the City Hospital. Ina Crawford and Careta Rogers are head saleswomen at Kresge's Five and Ten Cent store. Kenneth Burrell is now coach at the jail University, and Ruth Rosenthal is head of the music department. -loe Ambrose has taken a trip abroad to see if there is anything in the Scotch jokes he has heard. Catherine lmmel, Marguerite Hess, and Isabel George are members of Flo Ziegfeld's Chorus, 1936. Mary Vinay and Elizabeth Heineman are doing missionary work in Chicago. ,lames Brown is mayor of Barberton. Elizabeth Rorostyan is happidly married and takes in sewing to occupy her time. Frances Thompson and Agnes Connor have discovered a very easy way to re- duce, in six lessons. For the last time the crystal slowly clouds and my reading comes to an end. But the precious memories of happy days spent at dear Old South High will be imprinted forever in the minds of each and every one of the Class of january, 1930. page fm tv 0110
