CLASS HISTORY '33-In the fall of ,32 we embarked on the second unit of our High School career. This proved to be nine months full of adventure and fun, as well as a little education. In our first class meeting of the year, we elected a new faculty advisor, Miss Stone. She has proved very faithful and we have enjoyed many happy experiences with her. Early in the year we were talruu to the woods where all enjoyed the warm welcome of our sister class, the Seniors, the games, and the delicious hike supper. A few weeks later we enjoyed the hospitality of the Dowley home at a Hallowe'en Party. This gave us quite a thrill-especially when Mr. Dowley performed some of his amazing umagicv stunts. This was followed by a thrilling sleigh-ride in February. So far we are thoroughly pleased with our progress in High School and only pray the remain- ing years may be used to the best advantage to please our teachers, ourselves, and Him, without whom we cannot be prepared for life. ROY KELLEY. CLASS HISTORY '34-The Sophomore Class began the year with practically the same per- sonnel as ended the Freshman year except for a slight loss which was easily made up by addi- tional members this year. We are indebted to Dean and Mrs. Updyke for their interest and co-operation in making our school-life enjoyable. Although we are noted for our scholarship, still there are occasions when we throw off heavy responsibilities and engage in fun. Who would doubt it to see us playing 'iSkip-to-My-Loun, that new game. One of the many interesting occasions of the year which we enjoyed especially, was the outing given us by the Seniors. The hike to Kelley,s grove, eats, and the Uoperaticv talent in the enter- tainment were all remarkable. In basketball we compare favorably with the college students having beaten the College Sopho- mores recently. With such a fine record as we have had the past two years we can expect to come out victors in the end. RUTH KELLEY. SOPHO- MORES 1933 Velma Williamson Ruth Baker Treat. Ist Sem. Marjorie D.

The Junior girls won the basketball championship that year and the unior boys oh well Along toward the last of the year we held the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. The Seniors were invited to the dining-room which had been converted into an Old Inn. They dined in soft lamp light, and a brick fireplace and guns on the walls really gave the place an ancient feeling. When we left Spring Arbor we were tl.e better for having been there. Only by attending such a school and actually coming under its influence can one realize its real value to the world. RALPH LOWELL. CLASS HISTORY '34-We started in the fall of ,33 with sixteen Royal,l Juniors. Again Miss Stone consented to take the management of this fun-loving class. In October we took our sister class-the Freshmen-on a hike which was enjoyed by all. Right now we are looking forward to the ugrandv time when we shall entertain the Seniors at a Banquet next spring. We are having great fun in athletics this year. We are hoping either the boys or girls will get a championship. It hardly seems possible that we are just one year from the time when we will be wearing caps and gowns and that we will soon be leaving our Alma Mater we have learned to love. May she be to others even more than she has been to us. RUTH A. BAKER. Page Twenty-six

In spite of the fact that we were just Freshiesn, we congratulate ourselves in the wisdom we showed in selectin Dean and Mrs. U d ke as our class advisors. g P Y In October we had an enjoyable time at the hike given us by the juniors. The eats, games, and program were enjoyed by all. Shortly after the beginning of the second semester we decided we wanted a sleigh-ride. My how good the steaming supper tasted after the cold ride. An enjoy- able evening was spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Conner. Wlmile we have enjoyed the social events of the year, we have also taken advantage of the splen- did spiritual privileges. Many inspiring noon prayer meetings were held by our class during the year. We are glad we have One in whom we can trust to guide us on our path of life. EVELYN VOLLER. CLASS HISTORY '34-When we entered the portals of S. A. S. we felt a certain responsibil- ity stealing upon us which we hope to carry with us during our stay here. Though only Freshmen, eleven in number, we intend to support the ideals of the school and prepare ourselves for service. Miss Knowles, a much beloved member of the faculty, kindly consented to aid in the guiding of our steps through high school. Early in the fall our sister class, the Juniors, invited us to Woefle's woods where we all had a jolly good time together. We have entered several athletic activities of the school which have proved helpful as Well as enjoyable. We are just beginning and lcnow that there will be many discouraging things to face and many steep places to climb, but we are glad to know also that One has said, Be of good cheer I have overcome the worldf, WILLIAM G.
