SENIOR CLASS HISTORY September 1920 marked the advent of the illustrious class of ' 24 within the portals of our dear old Wabash High School. Dignified Seniors now, but then we were unknowing, trembl- ing, little, innocent youngsters. The usual welcome administered to the in- coming class by the enthusiastic up- per-classmen served to instill in us the proper appreciation for the privi- lege of acquiring a higher education. After madly rushing through the cor- ridors to our various classes and for a few days, struggling nervously to open stubborn lockers, we began our studies with a zeal and earnestness that was not to be daunted. During our first year in high school we prov- ed to the satisfaction of all that we were able to hold our place admirably with the upper classmen. The next fall we returned to school with renewed zeal for the advanced studies of Sophomores. Early that year we selected such attractive class pins and rings that immediately they proved to be the envy of the en- tire school. How quickly time flew, for now we were upperclassmen — Juniors. Every day was crowded with the increased duties of our class work. The crown- ing event of the year was the never- to-be-forgotten Junior and Senior banquet at which we royally enter- tained our honored superiors. Long will the remembrance of this social success stand out in the mind of every Junior and Senior. At last, we have attained the dis- tinctive title of dignified Seniors. With our honored position in school comes heavier work of various activi- ties — the publishing of the Annual and presentation of the Senior Play. During our career in high school many have proved themselves capab- le of high scholastic honors, for every six weeks the names of several mem- bers of the class of ' 24 have appeared in bold relief on the honor roll. Speaking of athletics — the class of ' 24 has produced undoubtedly some of the school ' s greatest athletes. What would the football team have accomplished without Capt. Schultz? Always have the girls of this class shown unflinching loyality to school athletics. It is a Senior girl who or- ganized and is president of the Boost- ing Belles, the fairer sex organization sponsoring loyalty to school athletics. Likewise the Leather Lungs, a similar organization of boys, is headed by a Senior. Throughout our years in high school our origin al class has gradual- ly decreased in numbers, but still we are the largest class ever graduated from W. H. S. Some have withdrawn to larger schools, while a few of our most fascinating girls have joyfully embarked upon the tempestuous sea of matrimony ; still others of our number apparently disregarded the efforts and requisites necessary for standard class work. Nevertheless we have enjoyed our years in high school and tried to imbibe the funda- mentals of good citizenship and clean living.
