er Ame EReU Ems ©2 Rats On the eventful day of September |, 1930, there entered the portals of the West Grade Building, 35 adventurous little men and women. Much to Miss Callahan's relief they turned out to be nicer than usual and she passed them on to Miss Newcomer with a sigh of accomplish- ment. Miss Hamman taught them reading, writing, and arithmetic dur- ing a tedious third year. And then through the fourth and fifth grades, Miss Dirrim and Miss Bonfiglio wielded their efforts on the hapless youngsters. By 1935 Mr. Gurtner had a fine class of 36 brilliant, studious children. In the seventh year of progress, the class moved from the west building to the East High School. Their junior high teachers were Mr. Barr and Mr. Bowers. At last in the fall of ''38'' they entered the freshman class of Waterloo High School. And who is there among them that does not remember freshman initiation? They sponsored two parties their fresh- man year; a skating party and a Hallowe'en party at Norva Strows. Danny Gratz was class president and provided enough humor to make up for all his blunders. Then in the sophomore year, Roger Nelson supplied the class brains as the president, shouldering all responsibilities and fulfilling his duty to the best of his ability. Miss Parks did a splendid job of keeping these boisterous pupils under control with Mr. McClain assisting whenever it was needed. Juniors at last! One more year to go. During this year Miss Snyder was blessed with the class. It might be added that very little effort was expended in the way of mischief. Jack Albright had the honor of class presidency. This was the year that the poor juniors gave a banquet for the seniors. It, in itself, was a wonderful affair but, oh, the moring after the night before! Now this group of industrious pupils has attained the peak of its per- formance, and, in a way, very sorry that it has. Ronald McIntosh has guided us through our senior year in grand style. As a class, it has been together for twelve years, with some going out of the group and some coming in. Many of these pupils are going on to greater achieve- ments and it can be promised that the class as a whole wishes that it could start all over again, having the fun it has had during these twelve trying years.

Albright to get his ‘Famous Team,’ Ackerman letting off her steam. Bowers, sometimes we think she's daff, Bainbridge and her tittering laugh. Bowman's salesmanship coming forth, Brandon's heart bouncing back and forth. Buss's love for Rex we see, And Carroll, moving lazily. Duncan's shy and bashful way, Eberly's love for Bob to stay. Jim and Art, their hay to bale, And Danny's questions that never fail. Aggie's eyes smile up at you, Lowell's facts are tried and true. Marie, who loves to laugh and tease, Jessie, who tries so hard to please. Kester, the lover of the class, While all but Gail does Ronny pass. .Myers, the boy who always sleeps, Luella, a friend to have for keeps. Jackie, Lois, and Norva too, For of all the mischief that they can't do. Helen, who likes the navy way, And Starkey wasn't here that day. But on to Ellsworth, his love for books, And Thomson, see how shy she looks? Whitbey who betters her typing skill, And Dotty can, she has the will. Roger, the editor of our book, Oh! And Hefty (a babbling brook). Now don't get mad and go away, There is still a little left to say. The teachers taught us all they knew, So it looks as if our class is thru. But though we leave, you know our best, Time alone, will tell the rest. —Maurice Starkey Page 19
