Senior Class History In September, 1933, we entered High School, but not as the common shy green Freshiesf' We were Freshmen, to be sure, but our boys were smeared with black and our girls were blushing pinkly. We have never been timid, but instead we have always been quite sure of ourselves, and have been accused of being cocky once or twice. Be that as it may, we made a good beginning by selecting Lloyd Hawkins, president, Amelia Royer, vice-presidentg and Ward Britton, secretary and treasurer. Under the guidance of Mr. Conder and Mrs. Faby, we had some grand parties and a weiner roast, and at the end of the year we selected as May Queen Attendants, Audrey Lanam and Juanita Miller. On becoming Sophomores we were a little surprised that we were exactly the same except for being a bit closer the end of our high school career. At our iirst class meeting we elected Jack Money, presidentg George Flood, vice-presidentg and Robert Royer, secretary-treasurer. This year we took part in a Sophomore-Senior Hallowe'en party, with Mr. Tolbert and Miss Barnett as our overseers. Mary Nash, Lloyd Hawkins, and Lois Franklin placed in local County Latin Contests. The honor of May Queen Attendants this year was given to Lois Franklin and Alverta Richardson. With our Junior year arriving, we were immediately confronted with the problem of raising money for the Junior-Senior Banquet. With Mrs. Conder and Tab as our sponsors we first elected our class officers, Ken- neth Johnson, presidentg Red'i Sink, vice-president, and Juanita Miller as secretary-treasurerg then proceeded with our plans. At the first of the year we sponsored a show at the Tivoli and a little later we sponsored an-S other. Under the direction of Mrs. Conder we put on a play called Girl Shy, which attracted a large audience. With these activities we collected enough finances to put over a very successful J unior-Senior Banquet. This year as Attendants to the May Queen, Maxine Highet and Wilma Starnes did quite well. As we entered our last year of high school we elected Jack Money for the second time as President, Charles Winders, vice-presidentg and Helen Corns as secretary. With Miss Douglas, Mr. Proffitt, and Mr. Spangler as our leaders, we have been raising money for THE SPENCERIAN, which, we feel, will be a huge success. The honor of May Queen was bestowed upon Dorothea Summers. Her attendants were Juanita Beauchamp and Rachel Wallace, Seniors, Yvonne Mallalieu and Esther Rubeck, J uniorsg Jeanne Fish and Vera Guy, Sopho- moresg Lillian Allee and Evelyn Jones, Freshmen. Now, as the end of our high school career draws nearer, we can look back on the many happy incidents of the past four years that we realize are gone forever. We have always been a comparatively small class, but we know a much larger class couldn't love our dear old Alma Mater better than we. We shall look back upon her as the place where we spent the happiest years of our lives and where we met most of our friends and teachers. Although we are all eager to show the world what this small but mighty class can do, there is much regret in our hearts at the thought of leaving our beloved Spencer High School. ' X JUANITA MILLER

Class Will We, the Class of '37, knowing that the completion of our four years in the dear old Alma Mater is near at hand, make our last will and .testa- mentg hereby revoking all former wills heretofore made by us, if there be any. We, the Senior Class, realizing our superiority over all other classes that have graduated from S. H. S., extend our deepest sympathy to our beloved instructors upon losing such a brilliant group of young men and women. We hereby regretfully and reluctantly leave our carefree manner and our I'l1 get by attitude to the Juniors. We sincerely hope with the use of these qualities they will outgrow their baby ways. To the Sophomore class we leave our desire to get ahead and all our high ambitions. To the Freshmen we leave our dignity, intellectuality, wisdom, aggres- siveness, and initiative. We hope that these characteristics may overcome their procrastination, inapplication, and frivolity. To our sponsors, Miss Douglas, Mr. Spangler, and Mr. Proffitt, we extend our appreciation for the good time they have made possible for us and for the careful guidance of our class. To Mr. Graves we leave this edition of THE SPENCERIAN, so he will have a chance to look at the pictures of the brilliant class of '37, We wish to leave Miss Brown our record of having so many brilliant Latin students and thank her for the marvelous patience she had with us. To. Mr. Spangler we leave our waste paper, so that he may continue to pick it up as long as he remains with the dear old Alma Mater. To Mr. Ault, better known as the Little Professor, we leave our Physics books and our ability to get along without knowing anything. To Mr. Hubbard We leave our deepest appreciation that he kept the as- sembly so quiet that we Seniors could study better and broaden our great minds. To Mrs. Marshall we leave all our shorthand books that she may have proof that she had the honor of teaching such a brilliant group of S. H. S. students. In the hands of Mrs. Waymire we leave the tender care of the future cooks and housewives of Spencer. To Miss Cunningham we leave our thanks for making so many of our students into great artists. To Miss Corbin we leave the directing of our future operettas and our hope that they will prove as successful as The Gypsy Troubadourf' To Miss Douglas we extend our appreciation and thanks for the splendid directing of the Senior play and leave her the task of directing another play next year.
