SENIOR COMMERCIAL Class History Three short years ago, on a fine morn- ing in September, 1924, nineteen eager students hled into the Coliseum. Shy and bashful we entered the first room, which we soon learned to love. Busy every moment with Shorthand. Typing and Bookkeeping, we soon forgot the time, and June found us off our guard. In September 1925 we entered these same bright school rooms. A number of Classical students had decided to change their course, and we were now thirty. The most sorrowful events in our hap- py year was the departure of our beloved Father O,Rourke and the death of our Vice President, Bernard Rush. Early in the year we gave the junior Party, which was a marked success, due to the co-oper- ation of both schools. In our reception for the Seniors, we surpassed decidedly any previous activities of the earlier years. We then looked forward to vacation and to the joy of our Senior year. At last the longed-for day arrived. We re-entered the old hall for the third time, not as followers of the school but as lead- ers. VVe began the year by welcoming the Freshmen with a school party. In October we took up our work in basket- ball under the guidance of Miss Sullivan and our work in Dramatic Art under the supervision of Mrs. Ezra Greenslit. We wish to thank Mr. Gill for his patience and kindness in teaching us Commercial Law. VVe all appreciate Mr. Gill's inter- est in St. Thomas High School and his giving so freely of his valuable time and talents. Now it is almost time for graduation and our departure from St. Thomas High School, and we are looking forward to the new things life offers. R. Hibbard and M.
