CLASSES THE LAGONDAN Page 20 SENICDRS The year, which was viewed with antici- pation by the freshman and sophomore, has come to a close. Many of those, who dreamed of this day back in 1928 have dropped by the way, some lured into the world of business, while others have listened to Cupid's voice. A goodly number has remained and to each that has contributed to the success of the year has come the satisfaction of accomplish- ment. The activities of the year have been many. Some of the seniors have carried un- usual responsibilities. Our president, Wayne Henderson, besides leading the class has taken an active part in dramatics and for- ensics. Max Sturm, the president of the Alphas, has been a senior whose interests were legion. Besides carrying on the work of his society, he has been prominent in music, forensics, and track. Fernando Cook, the president of the Philos has been active in the musical organizations. Jack Spence has led the Die Bestes in a fine way and at the same time played his part in football and track. Bob Myers, our most versatile senior has engaged in a range of activities-president of the Student Council, captain of the basketball team, an entry in voice, violin, and finally he became a drummer in the band. Gretchen Bower and Roger Kirkwood have led the religious organizations in an efficient manner aided in each case by other seniors. The 4-H Clubs of Cowley County chose Lottie Keasling, another of our seniors, to represent them at the National Convention of the clubs in Chicago. Another, Delos Shore, interested in improving the rural com- munities was awarded a beautiful gold watch at the St. Louis National Dairyman's Con- vention for placing second in the milk judg- ing contest. The seniors have been prominent in dramatics. Among those who have led in this activity are Charlotte Bangs, Edith Fischer, Wayne Henderson, Martha Jean Roach, Helen Welch, Don Parsons, Keith Green, Albright Collinson, Billy Hoppe, and Perry Martinez. Other seniors who were prominent in athletics4Jack Pool, Adolphus Smith, Har- old De Witt, Albert Sullivan, Keith Green, Edgar Kindt, Chet Hamm, Charles Vaughn, Finley Fiske, Dean Drennan, Albert Green- walt, and Lawrence Swenson. In the music of Winfield High School- Marie Glass, Charles Dalton, Josephine Gil- mer, Wilson Hahn, Dwight Fulton, Jerry Toomey, and Carl Stutzman did their part. In the usual senior manner the annual play was staged and to Mr. Casburn goes much credit for its success. Seniors in the American history classes anxious to escape the yearly preliminary quiz sold tickets a year in advance. The banquet was a gala affair enjoyed by all. And the seniors were proud of Helen and Wayne, their representatives in the Southwestern May Day activities. g Many others who deserve special mention are found in the various activity write-ups. X.
