SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the autumn of the year 1933, when all was bright and cheery, the Senior Class of 1937 began their life in the high school building (changed to a great capitol building) at Warrensburg. We then considered ourselves high officials, as do all beginners just learning. Jitn Robbins was chosen president, Bill Perkins, vice-president and Aldene Lehn, secretary-treasurer. The rest of the members were used as our Supreme Court, passing all laws such as parties and picnics, but when the examination questions came it took us quite a while to decide—but it was passed by all persons. In the fall of 1934 we resumed our duties with a slight change in officers. Annabel Faith replaced Bill Perkins as vice-president. We sent our Representatives to different meets and they brought back their share of the honors. As the life in the capitol goes through the same process from year to year, so did our imaginary government. The third year at the White house was somewhat changed. One of the important bills which was passed was the decision about our rings. Others were the Junior-Senior Banquet and the play ‘‘Huckleberry Finn”. As a few members of the Supreme Court retired we had to get along the best way that was possible. We entered our last year of rule in 1936, which was being the greatest of our high school career. We have had representatives in basketball, softball, and the operetta. We are all working on our last two bills before our term expires—the Cardinal and the class play, “Pigs”. We are all looking forward to our Inauguration Day when we will commence our new lives in the world. JIM ROBBINS.
