. In athletics we were distinguished by Myron Cox and Raymond Hart on first team foot- ball, and also by Myron Cox, Leland Walker, Clifford Currott and Nick Mangutz in baseball. Now you see, as Coue says, Day by day, in every way, we were getting better and better. III. Now, we were Juniors, and what a class, still traveling fast on the road to progress. Gain- ing? Yes, you bet, as will be shown by the following: For our class officers we elected: Henry Snyder President Avery Dice Vice President Roswell Burrows Treasurer Mildred Reins Secretary Miss Clarke Class Advisor During the course of this year we were very active and succeeded in many worth while attempts. Our first activity of the year was the Junior Play given February tenth. From this we obtained means enough to enable us to join with the Seniors in giving a joint Junior-Senior banquet. Another of our social events of the year was the Junior Hop, given March 27 at the Annex. This was one of the most successful parties of the year, not even the dignified Seniors could beat us in this line. The banquet which closed the social season was also a successful event, here again we showed our ability as a class, by keeping the old memorial horn from the anxious Sophs. Ray Hart, captain-elect of the next year ' s football squad, Nicholas Mangutz and Myron Cox upheld the honors of their class in football. George Needham, Russell Norton and Hugh Bloomfield were substitutes. Wallace and Arduino Ardussi, Kenneth Schurr, John Cronk, and George Kaiser were on the second team squad. Others who distinguished themselves in athlet- ics were Clifford Currott, William Dembinske, Frederick Galarno, and Junior Lewis. Now with t his record, if we don ' t show ourselves to be the best Senior class in history, it surely won ' t be because we haven ' t the material. IV. At last we know that we are not to be disappointed, for we have all finally obtained our goal, that of becoming an envied, dignified Senior, and also because we shall be able to show the Alumni that we are the largest graduating class to leave Arthur Hill to date. We began to realize upon coming back for the last year, that we must set a good pace for the under-classmen, so we immediately set about to elect our class officers. We chose to represent us for the last time in Arthur Hill : Raymond Hart President Henry Snyder Vice President Roswell Burrows Treasurer Donald Metcalf Secretary Miss Clarke Class Advisor During our first semester we were very busy with our studies so that we gave very little time to activities, except that of athletics. Our class president, Raymond Hart, led the football squad in a fairly successful year, having with him the support of these Seniors: Wallace and Arduino Ardussi, Junior Lewis, Elwyn Comstock, Joe Schmeigel, Charles Murray, Burton Ross, George Needham, Russell Norton, Frederick Galarno, Nicholas Mangutz, and John Lovette. Clifford Currott, Junior Lewis, Elwyn Comstock, Bill Dembinske, Henry Snyder, and John Lo- vette, represented us in basket ball. We managed to elect our Legenda officers the first semester, to collect our dues, and to decide that we must display ourselves by presenting a party. We didn ' t succeed in giving the annual Senior party, however, until the second semester, but even if it was a little late it was surely a fine one, better late than never. For our class play we finally chose Honor Bright, and the play surely proved to be a Bright Honor for our class. The cast displayedtalent which our whole class could be proud of. And now our year is nearly over and we are looking forward to Baccalaureate and Com- mencement. Baccalaureate is to be held in one of the West Side churches, June 17, the place is to be chosen by the class. Commencement, following the usual custom, will be held June 20, at the Auditorium.
