JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY President............................ Carl Jones Vice-President......................Verner Martin Secretary ..................................Alice Magato Treasurer...................................James Swisher Reporter ..........................Lucia Conkling In September of the year 1932, we, a large group of wide-eyed, frightened sailors, merged from a small vessel, called the “Grades”, and ascended the gang-plank of the large ship, “1936”. Realizing what a long voyage we had ahead of us, one that required courage and might, we bravely found our cabins—preparing for what might come, in the four ports of our journey. During the first quarter of our trip we encountered many storms, but by the cooperation and loyalty of all passengers aboard, our ship reached our first port—“Freshman City”. From “Freshman City” the crew pulled up anchors—and off we sailed to “Sophomore City”. On this trip we faced many more hardships than before, and sometimes we found it hard to keep smiling. Some of our crew became discouraged and deserted us, yet “on” sailed the Ship “1936”. Two long years have elapsed, and now we’ve anchored our “ship” in “Junior City”. The third year is almost gone. With pangs of regret we shall soon sail on, because only one more port is to be made on this journey—“Senior City”. We, the crew of the “1936” of V. H. S., shall emerge from this “ship” into a still larger one, the “World”, proud and full-fledged sailors. On we shall sail . . to other and larger ports . . yet we will know our happiest four years were spent on the “1936”. LUCIA CONKLING, ’36. —Page Twenty-nine—
