DEAR ElAEy . THE ECy THE GIEL September 12, 1927—Our first day of school. Some girls cried. Sissies! September 10. 1928—After one year of school the boys are still as dumb as ever. Why don’t they wise up? September 9. 1929—Pick up a 1930 annual and look at the lovely pictures of Sayers. Wow! What a setup. September 10. 1930—Remember the tears shed by our class when Miss Cooper’s room moved to the big building? September 11, 1931—This year the fight for the playground between the boys and girls caused lots of trouble. Some trouble makers we are! September 12, 1932—Most of our boys’ basketball careers are beginning this year. Thanks, Mr. Davis, for your kind cooperation. September, 1933-June, 1934—Boys, do you remember the glass S pins the girls vamped from us? Were we suckers! September. 1934-June, 1935—What a year this has been! Boys in one room, girls in another. Did the boys get hooked! September 14. 1935—Our high school careers are about to begin. What do they hold in store for us? November 15, 1935—The boys were undefeated in football this year. Congratulations, boys and coaches. April 3, 1936—Mr. Johnson, our new English teacher, produced a class play. June 6, 1936—I’m sure the boys are all looking forward to the rest of our high school days. This first year has been full of fun and frivolity for all of us. We are planning big things for next year. September 28, 1936—A great day has arrived for the boys. Jane Taylor has been imported from Grandview. Let’s get more like her. December 28, 1936—We beat Grandview 23-22. 'Attaboy, Faught; you showed them. February 13, 1937—Ah! Our Sophomore Flop initiated North Hall. Where were all the lovers? Boys, we need more romance. March 20, 1937—Arlington becomes State Basketball Champs. Class B. Wood work. What about a holiday, Mr. Jones? On our first day of school Marjorie Sanborn went home at recess with a case of homesickness. The girls welcomed a newcomer, Laura Lee Pfenning, bangs and all. In the third grade already. Ross, don’t you know it isn’t nice to sneak up behind the girls and kiss them? For a good, hearty laugh, look at the 1931 annual to see all the little, pretty misses. At last we’re grown up. Just think! Going to school in the BIG building. The girls certainly had something on the boys this year. We never had to stand out in the hall during our morning story—at least, hardly ever. The girls can really be proud of themselves now, wearing those S pins. How can we girls get anywhere this way— or is it the school’s idea to put all us girls in one room? High school at last! Let’s hope we have all been repaid for our hard work. Won’t those gold footballs look nice dangling from our chains? The majority of the girls haven’t changed in the past four years, but judging from her class picture, it’s a good thing Flo is an exception. Remember those bangs? Our freshman year completed and all is still well— few hearts broken and those were easily mended. Mary, Sue, and Paddle are all making more competition. It isn’t fair—we girls have a hard enough time as it is. We girls helped to win that game—I’m still a little hoarse from cheering. Our first social activity and what a flop—we do mean that Sophomore Hop. Music, atmosphere, what more do you boys want? Boys, we are honestly proud of you for your achievements in basketball. We knew you could win that Class B State Championship. Page Thirty-two
