QUE ADWNISTVQQTCDVQS Give us swell year HANKS, faculty! We've had a Hswellv year working with you: we're really sorry itls closing. Many of us will be back with you again next year, but we'll never forget this winter. The semester started off with a bang at the general school election when we se- lected our student officers for the coming year. The next happening was the All-School Party-the biggest event of the year. Many of you teachers worked hard, planning and helping to give this party, and we all want you to know what a really grand time we had. The booths sponsored by the various clubs were full of entertainment, and danc- ing to the music of Charlie Bray's orchestra was all that could be desired. Next came mid-term finals and report cards! Most of us didn't like these, but we managed to live through them. liven those whose grades were not as good as they wished, realized that it was their own fault and not that of their teachers. Miss Ewing worked long hours at this time, recording grades and enrollments. Then came the evening for which we had all been waiting with bated breath. Wliat was it? That's easy-the junior-Senior Prom. Faculty members were instrumental in making this such a big success. The chorus was excellent, and the dancing and card games were so well planned that the party never coming to Topeka High again this spring, and school was closed in the afternoon so that both teachers and pupils could attend. This year marked the 800th anniversary of the founding of the first secondary school. Under the direction of Miss Ethel Frizell, a pageant was presented by various departmental heads, in celebration. A large crowd of Topekans attended and the pag- eant was voted a great success. Another event which commemorated. the Tercentenary was the Open House, also under Miss Frizell's direction. At this time Topeka parents were invited to visit the school and demonstrations of work were given in the classrooms. Tpeka High had two big plays this year besides those presented by the regular dra- our grati- matic organizations. NVe owe tude to Miss Gertrude XVheeler for direct- Both were ing the junior and senior plays. excellently done. And now this year of work and fun is drawing to a close. Graduation exercises will be held in a few days and the school year of 1934-35 will be ended! Thank you, teachers, for your interest and aid in school affairs and for the way you have helped to engender school spirit in Topeka High. MISS LAURA L. EWING C. H.
