Swatam Township High School-THE SWATARA SWATTER 5 Senior Qlass History QUR one great High School Task, Enter to Learn, being completed, we start on our next great task, L'Leave to Serve, with renewed vigor, strength of mind and willingf ness on our part. The records during our entire High School Career clearly spell success, indicating that each and everyone has done his or her best. We are justly proud of this fact and have great faith in believing that the members of our class are bound to make a future success of themselves. It was not all Smooth Sailing, as one might think: We had our Ups and Downs in our school and social affairs, together with arguments and misunderstandings among ourselves. But it was due to our cleverness in dealing with such matters that made peace reign supreme, it was this fact that made it possible for us to have such an outstanding good record as shown in the paragraphs hereto following- Early in September, 1926, our classmates then a group of young sturdy knowledge seeking pupils from all sections of the Township entered the New High School Building as Freshman. At first Cas is common among all Freshmanj we were shy, bashful and forlorn. We possessed a fearful attitude toward our upper classmen who quite often treated us with burning initiations and other nasty tricks. But regardless of this fact we were quite active in all sorts of school affairs and school events. We had 4 members on THE SWATTER Staff. In basketball we had 5 boys and rr girls on the Junior Varsity. Our Sophomore year was even more successful than the Freshman year. This year the boys and girls were no longer shy, bashful or forlorn but were romantic, daring and chivf alrous which was clearly displayed in our response to the calls for football, basketball and other athletic and social events. In football fthe Hrst in the history of our schoolh, we had r 1 brave and hearty boys respond. In basketball we had r boy and 4 girls on the Varsity teams, and 2 boys and 5 girls on the Junior Varsity teams. We also had 3 members on THE SWATTER Staff. During our Junior year we were more inclined to realize life's work that lay before us. We were less 'kchildishn and more studious in our manners and attitudes, as the real purpose of a High School Education was just beginning to dawn upon us. This year we gave our first play entitled L'The Winding Road, which was a great success to us, and likewise a recreational service to the public. As to athletic events we had a greater showing than before. This year we had 2 boys and 6 girls on the Varsity Basketball teams. In football we had claim on 8 members. In baseball we had 5. We also had a good showing on THE SWATTER Staff to which we attributed 8 members. Our last and Senior year was in one way our saddest and in another way our happiest year. We felt sorry toward leaving one another, while on the other hand we felt happy to realize that we were grown up and prepared to face our future task that lay before us. This year we gave our second play entitled The Silent Shape, which also proved a success. In athletics we had 5 boys out for football. In basketball we had 5 boys and 7 girls. While in baseball we had 5 boys. We also had 8 members on THE SWATTBR Staff, We Hnished High School by having 51 members in our class who fought and plugged their way toward their one great goal of Learning.
