This class naturally wishing to break records, did so by being the largest ever to enter the high school up to that time, the dumbest to make good grades, the laziest to make a pretense of work. and the greenest to decorate the building. The girls all fell for junior and senior fellows and to this day they are sincerely loved by the girls of the classes of '33 and '34 for getting those terrible boys out of their way, They had two class parties which were punctured by playing basketball and running up and down the fire escapes. At one of these parties several couples won their laurels in other sections and were awarded with letters to their parents which almost requested punishment. The rest of the class played games which resulted in cuts and bruises, in 'he uppzr hall of the old building. One of the foremost ringleaders in all activities, good, bad. and otherwise, was the class president, Ann Jessup. As sophomores the girls showed their strength by winning several senior boys and the inter-:lass basketball tourney. Much confusion was noticed in class meetings, for the boys all voted against anything the girls suggested just for the sake of causing trouble. 'lhty enjoyed no class parties because of this failing as the boys and girls were evenly divided. As class president, Beth Bray did her best to keep the members on friendly terms and it seems that she succeeded in starting them on the right way. - As juniors they obeyed the call of childhood and celebrated with a kid party. Of course. fond memory will not let them forget Mr, I.ec's rompers, hair ribbons, short dress- es, bare legs, and all day suckers. The class play was given, but far be it from any member to divulge the secrets of the backstage activities during rehearsal. The Cust was entertained with a party by their sponsor, Mr, Lee. They managed to scramble their brains enough to win the Scholarship Banquet. thus breaking another tradition which says the junior class is usually the dumbest. The fellows had by this time grown up enough to go with freshman girls and the girls went with fellows from all four classes. Six of the girls gave a farewell party to the fellows who had graduated the year be- fore. As fate will have it, though, only three of the fellows were faithful to the girls who gave the party. although one of them lowered himself to being faithful to two of the girls at one time. Junior-Senior Reception was a time of broken dates, sad, sad, girls and scared, scared fellows, Great responsibility for the success of this event lay on the sturdy shoulders of Thurman DeMoss, who was class president. As seniors, this class again broke all records by not putting on any dignity or pretense cf dignity. They even went so far as to allow teachers to call them down. On only one subject did they refuse to be phased. for at least five couples managed to keep on speak- ing terms even though some got lost at Turkey Run, slid off in snowdrifts, and had oc- casional quarrels and many other troubles. They again elected Thurman DeMoss presi- dent, as he seemed to have ability in this special line of work, namely, going with senior girls, During this year the class sponsor became engaged and all the girls wished they could follow her example. In spite of its undigniiied ways this class has always shown its superior mentality by working only when necessary. Chief among the high lights of its high school career has been the publishing of an annual. Those long hours of waiting for an inspiration, the joys of meeting new friends while searching advertising, the trips to neighboring towns, the embarrassment of looking for a store manager in the basement when he was in his office upttairs, and the worry, worry, worry for hours finally to be crowned with shining success, have all had their part in the building of the class of 1936.

Basketball The Westfield High School Basketball Season of 1935-36 closed with a total of nine games won and thirteen lost. The Sliamrocks started out in good style by winning four of their first games. Then they hit a slump which was not overcome for the next seven games. At the disastrous point in the schedule came the County Tournament. Having gone to the finals in the last two tourneys. Westfield was conceded among the strong con- tenders for the championship crown. However. Walnut Grove blackened all chances of gaining any honors by handing the Shamrocks a 37-23 defeat in their first game of the tourney. In the remainder of the schedule. the Shamrocks displayed 3 brand of ball playing which concluded their regular season with five consecutive victories. When the hardwood teams of Hamilton and Tipton counties met in the Sectional Tournament, Westfield was rated as one of the outstanding darkhorses, The Shamrocks entered the tourney in fine shape and turned back Walnut Grove in the first round of the tournament by a 22-20 count to avenge their defeat in the county championship bat- tle. In the second game, the Shcrldan Blackhawks showed their power to be too much for the Shamrocks by turning them back 26-14. This game ended the hardwood career of four seniors. In County coinpetiti-an the Green and White boys turned back five foes and lost six engagements to end up in fourth place in the county rating. The Shamrock Rcse1'ves endured a season much like the first team. They won nine and lost ten, The Freshman team suffered the worst defeats by losing four games and winning none, 1Continued on Page 24+ I-'l RST 'FEA M SEATED' P1111 O1'lw1-i11, 11111111111 .1111l 1'11p111111-1-l1'1'1: E1'1'1111L1 Babb. 1111111111 K1-111111111 Gilpin.
