ageiial positions are held by June 1912 folk. For instance, basketball was managed last year by Ralph Richardson, this year by Walter Prien. The man- ager of the 1912 baseball team is Walter Brown, while Leo Van Derhoff is track captain. Speaking of managers, Leland Stilwell is this year s manager of the musical clubs in which there are many June 1912 people. The glee clubs and orchestra will lose many members in June. Especially will the orchestra feel the loss of John Vonhold on whom it depends for much solo work. Another school activity in which the class has been well represented is the chess club, perhaps the youngest of our school sports. And last but most assuredly not least let me mention the many 1912 people who are members of the debating teams. They are Earl Allen and Lee Waldron, members of this year’s team which won the Lafayette debate; William Miller, Walter Prien and Walter Coapman composing the team to debate East High and Walter Miller, Arthur Miller and Felix Elliot who were members of the 1911 teams. Also Elizabeth Garbutt and Elizabeth Levis represented June 1912 on the girls’ team which won back the Delta Phi trophy cup from East High. Last year that redoubtable Miller trio was victorious over our sister school and this year the team again won a notable victory over East High. If mention were made of each member of the class who has been promi- nent in some particular way, there would not be space enough to print the names. For every man of us has done something to add to the renown and good name of our class. No doubt the class has its bad qualities (we wouldn’t be human if wc were perfect), but they are so overshadowed by the good qual- ities that wc quite lose sight of them. The scholarship of the class has been by no means neglected. Indeed it is far above the average. There are more people in this June 1912 Class who are graduating with the class in which they began their high school career, than in any class that has been graduated in several years. And for this we must thank the faculty, individually and collectively, for surely it was due as much to their efforts as to the natural abilities of the students, that we are graduating in four years, instead of five or----! For its memorial, the class is leaving money sufficient to erect the foun- tain so long projected. Many of us remember Mr. Finch who built the founda- tion for it and every member of the class certainly counts it a privilege to be able to bring to completion the plan of one whose memory is precious to the school and alumni. June 1912 is happy to be so remembered. DOROTHY CRAGG OWEN. 17
