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.

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.

These two students maintained an average of 96.23 and 96.l3, respectively, during their four years in high school. Alice Stewart came in third with an average of 96.

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. Stewart was a mem- ber of the football, basketball and track squads during all four years, and held several positions of leadership. He was class president in both his freshman and sophomore years, as a junior was vice president and later president of the Boys' Club, and held the office of president of the Associated Student Body for both semesters of his senior year.
