Besides representing his class as salutator- ian, he was also the boy selected to receive the Layhue Memorial for l932, an honor given each year to the boy and girl who have best shown the qualities of scholarship, achievement, honor, obedience, attitude, effort, generosity and regard for others. lda Thomas, as the girl chosen to share this honor, will also have her name en- graved on the Layhue Memorial loving cup. She too was prominent in school activities during her high school career, playing on the main squad of the girls' basketball team during her last two years, and this year holding the position of secretary of the student body, president of the Girls' Club, as well as president of the Girl Reserves for one term. Vivian Sailor and Stewart Schatz were chosen by the student body and faculty to have their names placed on the Lester Mitchell Memorial award. This is a bronze plaque, containing the names of the two seniors who are voted as having the most pleasing and helpful personalities in the class. These students have also contributed a great deal to school life. Vivian won her letter in girls' basketball and was editor of the Spartan News.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY First Semester Offices Second Semester john Poolman President Kenneth Cain Charles Pasquier Vice President john Poolman Elizabeth Kelley Secretary-Treasurer Elizabeth Scrimger HE Senior class of l932 has just completed its last and most successful year in Sumner High School. The first big affair put on by the class of '32 was the annual Senior Ball held in Cuill's Hall, December 4, which proved to be an enjoyable affair. lts setting was a picturesque winter scene. Snow and Christmas greens carried out the decoration motif. The chairmen of the committees were: Elizabeth Scrimger, general chairman, Vivian Sailor, invitations, john Poolman, decorations, Mildred jansen, refreshments. Another successful enterprise was the Senior Play, The Youngest, which was presented in the new senior high auditorium, March 29, under the skillful direction of Miss joan Bailey. The play, which dealt with family life, was said to be one of the best ever given in Sumner, and drew a full house. Richard Winslow, the youngest, was always ruled by his older brothers and sisters. When Nancy Blake came to visit the Winslows, she undertook to make him over. How Richard finally came into his own completed theaction of the play. The cast was composed of: Emma jean Ryan, the heroine, Erma Engle, the sophisticated older daughter, Doris Sprouse, a funloving young girl, Pauline Keblish, the maid, Helen Roberts, mother of the family, john Poolman, the youngest and much abused son, Bill Dudley, the Beau Brummel of the play, Stewart Schatz, a solid business man, and Howard Schrengohst, the son-in-law and family lawyer. Student body officers taken from the seniors included: Stewart Schatz, president, Ida Thomas, secretary, Mildred jansen, business manager, Charles Pasquier, vice presi- lContinued on page 421 .. .. . azwuniti CAST OF SENIOR PLAY.
