MAROON AND GRAY SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September eighth, 1923, about forty tiny scamps tumbled out of the door of the Primary Building and made a dive for the cannons. Remember those cannons? The one on the left was strictly reserved for girls and that on the right for boys. The one who gained the seat of honor on the nose of the cannon was king,' of the occasion. Climbing the golden trail, these forty young hopefuls have at last reached the goal. Twelve long years full of happy memories. The years between that first day of school and September eighth, 1931, when we entered High School, were spent in growing, learning, and preparing for the best days of all, our High School days. Upon entering High School, our already swollen ranks reached 134-the largest class ever to enter High School. We made our start in a brand new building and with new advantages. Our Freshman year saw girls privileged for the first time to participate in sports,-volley ball, baseball, and hockey. Another new thing for us was being joined with the seventh and eighth grades into the Iunior High. Iohn Ritenour was elected president, Iean Rountree, vice presidentg and Helen Underwood, secretary-treasurer of the infant class. Rodney Hoy received the O. W. Houts prize for excellence in shop, and lean Rountree received the A. A. U. W. scholarship award. Ray Warnock, president, Mary Madison, vice president, Helen White, secretary, Dorothy Heeter, treasurer, headed our Sophomore year. In football we boasted four lettermen: Walter Mitchell, Ray Warnock, Bower Moore, and Charles Mothersbaugh. Walter Mitchell was the only letterman in basketball. In the reading contest we were represented by Mason Whitmore, Arthur Ieffrey and Barbara Hanson. We received further distinction when Vivian Doty won the Sophomore extemporaneous speaking con- test. lean Rountree and Robert Hasek were awarded the P. T. A. scholarship medals. Robert Hasek also received the A. A. U. W. scholarship award. Our last year as undergraduates proved the class's ability to take the task of being Seniors. For officers, we elected Don Duncan, president, Ray Warnock, vice president, Mary Madison, secretary, and lean Rountree, treasurer. The two Iunior issues of the Piper were edited by Robert Hasek and Marjorie Govier. The annual Iunior Plays, directed by Mrs. Ridenour, were very successfully presented. They were, Six Who Pass W'hile the Lentils Boil,', The Boot, 'LWhere the Cross Is Made, and The Rehearsal. The Iunior Prom was acclaimed the most beautiful and most successful Prom ever given in the High School. For the Iunior Shakespearean read- ing and declamatory contest, Rachel Bechdel and Ray Fishburne were selected as the win- ners. Robert Hasek again won the A. A. U. W. medal in his Iunior year. The D.A. R. American History prize was awarded also to Robert Hasek. And so we spent the happy years from cannon climbing to Commencement climbing. How well we trod the final steps up the hill is recorded in other parts of this book. Ezglz teen
