Cro S11 ODAY, as we stand on the threshold of life, we pause to reflect on the memories of yesterday which make up the history of today. dp — | In the fall of ’36 as bewildered Freshmen we began our high school career together. Termed obstreperous, we were soon tamed under the sponsorship of Miss Eleanor Blum, Miss Edna Henderson, Mr. Aubrey Bass, and Mr. Elbert Wright. We organized as a class with Frances Richardson, president. Our second year found us with quite a few new students, and one of these, Mildred Manahan, became our president. That year we selected Ann Lindsey as our mascot. The year passed swiftly for us and ended in the spring with a delightful picnic of lasting memories. Our Junior year found us excited to be upper-classmen, and again Mil- dred Manahan was our able president. A trip to Washington, D. C., spon- sored by the Seniors was an opportunity of which many of us took ad- vantage. In the spring we presented the annual Junior Play, “Who Wouldn't Be Crazy.’’ The success of this dramatic venture enabled us to give the Seniors a reception later on and to present a gift to the school. We departed at the close of the year ever conscious of returning in the fall. With both joy and sorrow in our hearts—joy because it would mean the success of one phase of our youthful lives, and sorrow because it would mean a separation of paths for us all, and the end of our days at Chester High School, we returned. For three years we struggled with our aspirations of becoming Sen- iors and at last we were! We turned our attention first to elections, and chose for president, John Jones. We observed Class Day by posing as well- known characters—either real or fictious. In our midst that day we will always remember Hitler, Heidi, Jack and Jill, and all the others. From this we turned to the Class Play which our sponsors, Miss Gladys Moses and Miss Nancy Creath, helped to make a success. “whe Retle ctor. . page twenty-four
