THE ORACLE WHITMER'S ALPHABET A-is for Annual, our blue and gold, We'll like it better for the years untold. B-is for Basketball, do we love that game? But in football and track we are exactly the same. C-is for Candy, it's eaten by all, Look at the papers that clutter the hall. D-is Mr. Dallas, whose knowledge of law, Beats anything that we ever saw. E-is for Everyone, we all stand together, And cheer for our school, in all kinds of weather. F-is for Football, that game can't be beat, Through fairness and squareness, we've taken defeats. G-is for Good-that's how we all act- But in the study hall our work seems to slack. H-is for Him which is all that you hear. Then a crowd of the fair sex start arguing near. I-is for Invalids, who seek rest room permits- And complain of diseases from toothaches to fits. J-is for janitor, to whom we say, please,,' On the days that we forget our own locker keys. K-for Mr. Krieger, our superintendent you know, He works all the time trying to make us just so. L-is for Lincke, our mathematician, He can't be beat for rapid addition. M-is for Mass Meeting, one of our joys Where we sing out the praise of our athlete boys. N-is for racket-we speak of as Noise. Which is often made by our nice little boys. O-is for Office, familiar to all. Conveniently located on the second floor hall. P-is for Principal, yes we have one too- W'ho is always interested in whatever we do. Q-is for Questions, we ask a full score, And fail to reply to that many more. R-is for Room, a room you can't beat, Why not? Because it's the place where we go when we eat. S-is for Stacy, our basketball coach Who has a ready smile on a sudden approach. T-is for Thompson and Oh! what a man- He teaches you woodwork by the use of your hand. U-is for Universities, where our seniors will go To teach lots of things that they do not yet know. V-is for Vischer, a boy that is keen, The finest librarian we've ever seen. W-is for Whitmer, the best in the land- The right road to progress it beckons its hand. X-is for Xmas, the break of the year, When books are forgotten until the New Year. - Y-is for Years that we have spent here, They'll always be filled with memories dear. Z-is for Zeal-which we all must possess, In school or out, to be a success. -MYRTLE BROWN. Page Twenty-one

THE ORACLE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY OF 1931 The Senior Class of 1931 was composed of thirty-four industrious pupils. XV e elected as our oiiicers Amy Van Wormer, president, Leona Welton, vice-president, Laura Smith, secretary, and james Travis, treas- urer. Miss Blackburn was our class advisor. One of the most outstanding events of our senior year was a dance held in the Trilby Log Cabin the first part of the year. Under the supervision of Mr. Krieger and Miss Zindler, we pre- sented a play called Betty's Last Bet. With the co-operation of the student body and the cast this was a great success. As we neared the end of the year, we looked forward with anxiety to the closing events. First came the prom. Excitement reigned supreme that evening and all who attended enjoyed themselves thor- oughly. In May was given a banquet sponsored by the juniors who entertained us royally the whole evening. Lastly came graduation. That evening, as we thought of leaving dear old Whitmer and our high school days behind, a lump rose in our throats, and it was hard to choke back the tears, however, realizing that new students should come to take our places, we bade our teachers and friends good-bye with a smile. This year a few members of our class have returned to take up post-graduate work. This group includes Ralph Meeks, Oliver Horn- ing, Louis Grenon, Edna Dewey, and George Baker. -EDNA DEWEY 31', Page Twenlyvllaree
