THE SENIOR CLASS On a bright sunny day in the Autumn of the year, twenty-one ambitious seniors - to - be knocked upon the doors of War-rensburg High School for admission to take the necessary instructions for the completion of their four years, course. They assumed their duties on September 2, 1935 with high hopes and cracking smiles. Eleven days later they were organized so they might be able to cling more closely together. They held much confidence in their former president, Dick Gilman, and therefore he was reelected. Jewell Shephard was elected vice-president with Irma Good, secretary; and Philip Bauman, treasurer. Mr. Serkes and Mr. Henry were chosen as advisors. The class jointly held several ocial activities.. An educational tour of St, Louis on October 5, 1935 was made- A “Good Times College” party was held in the home of Helen Sib-thorp on November 16. On January 27, the Seniors under the supervision of Gordon Bat-chelder held a surprise party on Anna Marie Bales. Several Seniors thought they did not have enough to do by just carrying on their school studies so they joined the several activities open to anyone. The Operetta, “Love Pirates of Hawaii”, contained eight Seniors. At the close of the first semester Virginia ToPon resigned her duties here but we gained our usual size when Edward Loomis decided to come. The Senior play, “Big Hearted Herbert” was a great success. We wish to thank the Juniors for our enjoyable time at their party, the banquet. Lester Wickiins ’36 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY In the spring of the year in ’43 Of the class of ’36 you’ll see Many changes have taken place, When with my class. I come face to face. Gordon Batcheldor and Anna Marie In Holy Wedlock have taken a spree. They own a farm away out West In search of gold I hear is their quest. Dick Gilman’s fame seemed rather unsure Till he started the manufacture of Freckle Cream Cure. Did you ever hear of a Fuller Brush Man? It seems that Bob Combs has, joined the clan. At school he talked little which just goes to '-how you That you can’t tell a person by the front he shows you Mrs- Miles Chappel, the former Miss Irma Good Gave birth to red-headed twins, it is understood. Lester Wickline? Well I should say He is one of the leading men of our day. By leading I mean he led a large band That played in a night club until they were canned. William Glosser is doing a service for humanity He owns a Medicine snow called Cure, Kill, or Calamity. Helen Sibthorp plays with a circus in Boody —13
