SENIOR CLASS HISTORY ’Twas a bright and shining morning, that fateful day of September 12, 1931, when forty-seven somewhat bewildered and maybe a little frightened student Arabs mounted their camels for the first stage of their journey across the desert of high school life. We went through the “green” stage with flying colors. Our scholastic standing was, or at least we thought so, better than the average. With Freshman enthusiasm we participated in as many outside activities as were offered us. We were well represented in both basketball and football, and many of our members took part in the Glee Club and Dramatic Club. We made our presence known to our upper classmates, if by no other method than the noise we made. Then we reached our first oasis—vacation. Three months later we resumed our journey with vacation just a pleasant memory. This second stage of our journey, our Sophomore year, was marked by success in athletics and other outside activities. During this year a Modern History Club was formed, with Miss Kley as director. A banquet was held in the High School Cafeteria. We now looked with patronizing air on the “freshies” and began to feel that we had made great progress. At the end of the term, we celebrated its closing and the coming vacation with a picnid at Greenville Park. At the beginning of our Junior year, our caravan was reduced to just forty-one, but we went proudly on. This year we selected our class rings, and continued our success in our studies. As the year neared its close, we gave a reception for the Seniors and were well satisfied at its complete success. —Page Fourteen—

Now we are finishing the last part of our journey. There has been “plenty” of hard work, but we feel that our efforts have not been fruitless. The pleasures we have had in High School will always be the most pleasant of memories. Our last effort was the publishing of an Annual. We strove to make it the best ever published in V. If. S., and we are certain that our efforts have not been in vain. Now the end of the desert is in sight, for Graduation is not far off, with our number just thirty-nine. We close our trip with a smile, and yet a tear, but not without due gratitude to the teachers who have helped us attain our goal. —LENORE WEBSTER, ’35. —Page Fifteen—
