gli PURPLE App GOLD SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the autumn of 1918 the memorable year that the Armistice was signed We entered the Sullivan High School as Freshmen. Never had a greener nor fresher bunch entered but we were intelligent, capable and energetic. We were properly initiated by the usual stunts, trips to the graveyard and hair-cutting. Our Freshman year was a year of beginnings in which we laid the foundation for great doings. Nothing in particular did we accomplish with the exception of furnishing much needed amuse- ment for the upper classmen. The most promising feature about our class was the spirit shown in entering in all school activities and our efforts to become as wise as our elders. At the very beginning our plans were so often frustrated by the teach- ers and upper classmen that we found it necessary to form an organization. Tom Hoke was chosen president, Georgia Lord, vice-presidentg Eva Boss- tick, secretary, and Harry Lowry, treasurer. We were Well represented in all athletics this year. The next year we put away childish things and along with the hard work of the Sophomore year we dreamed of our future and coming glories. During this year we did as all Sophomores do-rested on our oars, gath- ering strength for future trials. In fact We rested so long 'and leaned so heavily on the oars that there was some doubt as to our ability to reach the port, and the Junior boat. Our greatest ambition was to win recogni- tion from the noble Seniors, our benefactors and protectors from the Juniors. Our class organization consisted of Harry Lowry, presidentg Lois Lindley, vice-president, and Keith Bittle, secretary and treasurer. Our only social affair was a class party at the Gymnasium. In athletics we were represented in Inter-class Basketball, Inter-class Track and in Girls' Basketball. We became Juniors and suddenly our sphere of influence widened. Through the biggest and most important year of our High School career we were guided by Lois Lindley, president, Helen Bland, vice-presidentg Willard Wiltse, secretary and Harry Lowry, treasurer. The energy we displayed in the work in the classroom was carried on in every phase of school life. At this time our teachers began to believe that we were going to make a stir in Sullivan High School and become leaders in all activities. We had four men on the Football Team, and two on the Basketball Team. From our number was chosen the president of the Athletic Asso- ciation, Harry Lowry, the Captain of the Track Team, Glen Stanbaugh, and the Captain of the Girls' Basketball Team, Norene Marshall. In oratory we were represented at the South Central Meet by Harold Love- laceg in the Bays Oratorical contest by Harry Lowry and Mildred Thomas. On the Annual Staff' Qve were well represented, having six members. Our 22

Jim PURPLE QQ-COLD greatest honor was the winning of the E. D. Maple silver loving cup by Glen Stanbaugh as a recognition of superiority in grades, sportsmanship and athletics. Our ability in the social world was shown when we entertained the Seniors and Faculty at the Gymnasium. At last we have reached the goal. We are Seniors feeling all the dig- nity carried with that term. Our president is Willard Wiltseg vice- presi- dent, Mildred Scully, and secretary and treasurer, Earl Carty. In the class are twenty-two boys and thirty-eight girls. We are honored by being the leaders in all school activities. With the exception of one, the entire Football Team was made up of Seniors. Norene Marshall was again elected Captain of the Girls' Team and we have three boys on the Basketball Team. We were honored when our famous quarter-back, Max Dugger, who starred in so many games, was chosen Captain of the Wabash Valley Football Team and again when our all-round athlete, Glen Stanbaugh made the Wabash Valley Football and Basketball Teams. We have a good representation on the staff, four mem- bers including the editor-in-chief, Mildred Wolfe. With pleasure we review the past, with hope we look forward to the future trusting, that-come what may we shall be able to stand as good representatives of a good high school.
