Four long years do I keep them, Four years full of days bright and gay; Bright with the essence of youth.

You, a school teacher? Well, can you bear it? I never expected to sec you teaching ye good old fundamentals of education: Readin’— Writin’—And ’Rithmetic. Personally, I’ve been indulging in ye good old fundamentals of matrimony: cooking, scrubbing, and sewing buttons on Junior’s shirts. What—? You didn’t even know I was married? My cow! Here I’ve had poor dear Burnham in harness for almost five years, and you hadn’t an inkling of it. And what a husband he turned out to be. No, my dear, there’s no sarcasm in that. I mean he actually is. You sec he’s teaching rhetoric at Harvard (with Charles Kramig as his assistant), and he’s quite the pedagogic professor. You know he had to go abroad last summer to do some research in literature, and of course I trailed along, too. Well, dearie, did 1 go places and sec people (mostly see people)! You’d actually be surprised if you could know how many of our dear old class of ’31 are scattered to the four corners of the globe. And clothes? You really must see the perfectly an el things I brought back from Mile Haderer’s exclusive Paris salon. Speaking of Paris—you know Joe Cox is the American Ambassador over there. Can you feature it? But then he always was a little person in a big way. Well, he informed us about all the places one must see in Paris to really see anything, and one of those places was, of course, that sweet little palace out at Versailles. So then we immediately proceeded to hire a driver to take us right out. I thought the driver rather faintly resembled George Carlson, and sure enough it was he. Well, we had such a gay time reminiscing that poor dear Burnham really became quite jealous. However, I reached Versailles without being sued for divorce and some very sporty watchmen let us in. I later realized that one of them was Carl Brccce. Well, dearie, whom do you suppose we found inside the grounds? Our old friend, Mary Mooty. She was perched upon a quaint little stump busily sketching scenery. It seems she has one of those naughty Bohemian studios in the Latin Quarter and hires Mary Der and Virginia Dix as her models. Incidentally, she informed me that Esther Thompson has a violin studio right down the street. Then we had to dash back to our hotel, and what should we find but a copy of The Chief that Jeanne Curtis had sent us. It is still quite an entrancing publication and especially with Jeanne as Editor and Jack Guthrie as advertising manager. Another change I noticed was that the firm of Ware-Smith has given way to the present firm of Jahn-O’Neal and that the hearse is now under the capable guidance of Jerome Titus. Well, of course I was thrilled to hear all the gossip of our dear old class popping up like this; but just imagine my surprise when we were prowling around those perfectly fascinating ruins in Greece, to come across Bill Hansen and Bob PaK 30 I I I I I I I I 10 3 1 WA MWA Kl W 11TA 1 1 Tinsley. They were on some sort of archaeological expedition promoted by Alex Secord and his brother, Philip. We had quite a long chat with the dear boys before returning to the land of the free and the home of the brave.” C I really thought by that time that we’d located half our Alma Mater on the other side of the Big Pond, but it appears that a few of them arc still knocking around on their own native shores. In fact, just the other night at the opening of Roy Kirk’s and Hiatt Presnell’s new theatre in New York, I heard that Frances Register panicked the critics with her bewitching impersonations (particularly of teachers) and that Ernestine Phillips is also on the stage making big money as a concert pianist. And of course you’ve heard about Lillian Craig winning that scrumjihous trip to Hollywood and a chance to star in the latest talkie-wow! She should—with Bessye Levy as her press agent. Then let me see—oh, yes! Fay Marable is at the head of little Junior’s kindergarten, assisted by Nellie Struthers and Bonnie English. And while we’re on the subject of education—Wayne Bailey, you know, is now promoting student government in all the institutions of higher learning. His old buddy, Elmer Griffin, is running true to form and is fast becoming famous as an evangelist. At present he is trying to reform Harold Hoffman, who started out quite innocently to raise gladiolas. However, you know how even the best boys will go wrong, and the last thing heard he’d acquired a most frightful reputation as a bootlegger. Donald Atkins on the other hand has turned over a new leaf and is running a reform school for class cut-ups; I hear that some of the inmates still serving out terms are Allan Spaun, Walter Carroll, Carl Lameraux, Elwyn Middleton, and the Strutherses. Allan expects to be released verv shortly to open a new clothing store. Gerald Cooney, now a big real estate agent, plans to rent him a lovely new building, for his project. Isn’t that too cunning? Another home towner making good in the business world is Fannie Brogden, who is still handling Austins (?) in a big way. Charlotte Cameron is employed as her high-powered super-salesman but seems to spend half her time invading high schools trying to teach students how to cheer properly. Mary Mildred Caldwell and Chester Miller arc coaching the mythical All-American this year, a position gained on the strength of the reputations they earned in dear old Haven High. Allen Anderson and Russell Welch have established a home for big bashful boys. and Clara Schiller and Elsie McCutcheon, a home for undernourished old maids. Helen Hewitt is head dietitian at the latter school, endeavoring to instill pep” into the inmates. Marjorie Spaun, Louise Lyle, and Edith Wood are flying a passenger plane at regular intervals across the Atlantic. They’ve purchased one of those ultra- modern planes and call it the Three Graces.” Really, I think the only member of our distinguished class who has been at all disappointed in his occupation is Paul Vaughn, who joined the navy to see the world and has been scrubbing decks ever since. Can you bear it? Gracious peace—It’s nearly six o’clock! I see where hubby has no soup to-night— but really, I’ve enjoyed our little chat most frightfully, and you simply must plan to come over sometime and discuss old classmates again. I mean you actually should. —Cheerio! Pace 31 1031 n 4 I1TA Stf t { i I I i i t Class Will 193 0-1931 LADIES and Gentlemen of the radio audience:—We have with us this evening members of the distinguished class of ’31 who, believing themselves of sane minds and sound bodies, are desirous of broadcasting their last will and testament. Fittingly enough, the first speaker on the program will be their long-suffering class president, Mr. Elmer Griffin. I. Good evening, friends of the radio-land. First, on behalf of the class, I should like to state that we hereby on this, the 22nd day of May, 1931, do will and bequeath to the incoming class of ’32, the many privileges (?) which we have enjoyed during our careers as Seniors. Following this I hereupon leave to Roger Stephenson my magnetic power over my class-mates and my ability to successfully lead them over the rocky road to graduation. II. I, Wayne Bailey, wish to bequeath to Ralph (Bloody) Woodham, my egotistical manner and my habit of sticking to my point in spite of all opposition. III. I, Ernestine Phillips, do hereby bestow upon Lois Sutherland my well-known ability to tickle the ivories.” IV. We, Louise Lyle and Edith Wood, will to Nell Spencer and William Magnuson our long-used seats in the Dundee bus, hoping that they may secure as good a driver as George Carlson. V. We, Charles Kramig and Frances Register, leave our titles of Biggest Babies” to Louise Kinney and Herman Hughes. VI. We, Donald Atkins and Gerald Cooney, bequeath to Charles Bentley and W. H. Anderson, our faculty of successfully shouldering all blame for the mischief of the class. VII. To Jimmie Gamble, I, Carl Breece, leave my perfect foot-ball stature, the pride and envy of all the gridiron stars. VIII. We, Russell Welch and Allen Anderson, will our bashfulness around the fair members of the student body to David Leonard and Heflin Mooty. IX. To Harold Martin, we, Harold Hoffman and Philip Secord, bequeath our reputations for constancy in affairs of the heart. X. I, Mary Der, will my flaming tresses and my coy little freckles to Arlene Summerlin, who is generally conceded to be an appropriate successor. XL We, Esther Thompson, Clara Schiller, and Elsie McCutcheon, have decided to bequeath our excess avoidupois to Mary Mabson and Sara Hampton. XII. Not being able to part with all of my maidenly pulchritude, I, Lillian Craig, have generously promised a few features apiece to Willie Casey and Dot Knight. XIII. We, Fannie Brogden, Jeanne Curtis, and Faye Marable, will our intellectual abilities to Geraldine Bevis and Leone Brennan. XIV. I, Bernhard Fehmcrling, leave my beautiful bass voice to William Lang, provided he will bring his down that far. XV. We, Christine Hampton and Bonnie English, will our entrancing permanent waves to Kathryn Hightower. Papre 32 I I I I I I I I 10 3 1 rw4 MTA see I i t i i $ XVI. To Charlotte Addis, I, Mary Mooty, bequeath my job of making football posters and the place-cards for the Junior-Senior banquet. XVII. We, Chester Miller and Mary Mildred Caldwell, pass on our sporty” reputations to the most athletic members of the Junior class. XVIII. We, Alex Secord and Jack Guthrie, leave our well-known managing and business abilities to anyone feeling the need of such. XIX.

Page S3 I I § I I I 10 3 1 Class Poem Here as athletes Upon a chosen field— We have struggled, We have toiled. Adversaries Fierce, Unnumbered, We have met And each one foiled. Sometime the goal Seemed close at hand Yet always out of reach. But still we labored Without cease, Though seemingly in vain. So now we are emerging From this hard-icon fight Victorious—and wealthy In the list of our achievements. We’ve loved this long And worthy battle, We hate to see it end. Though we know the greatest struggle Of them all is just ahead. —Mary Louisl Paul.

Prof. Leps Director OUR Athletic Association really came into its own this year. Working under the guidance of Professor J. C. Leps, Director and Coach of Athletics, the student officers planned a campaign that resulted in a fine success, both financially and morally. Hearty co-operation and enthusiasm among the students and citizens of the town enabled the Association to accomplish the projects that had been planned. For the first time in the history of the school, the Athletic Association was placed on a paying basis with all outstanding debts paid. Much credit is due the officers and Professor I.eps for their courage and tireless energy in making the season a success, although facing numerous difficulties and obstacles throughout the year. Our Cheer Leaders Lillian Alexander Roy Kirk. Charlotte Cameron Fast 41) 10 3 1 Is I Vi v C? C nvvi HTA see i t i rti' Football, i)y FI'ORTUNATELY only five letter-men were lost to the Blue Devils” by graduation last year. Coach Leps had many fine men to choose from to fill the vacancies which were opened in the loss of these men and as a result—a fighting ''Blue Devil” team; one of the finest the school has ever put on the gridiron. Under the able management of Alex Sccord and Captain Wayne Bailey, the boys ripped and tore their way through the eleven hard games that they played. Injuries were numerous, and it was only in one or two games that the Devils” played full strength. However there was enough power left to administer a decisive beating to our rivals in Lake Wales on Thanksgiving Day. The Blue Devils” ran second to Wauchula in the Ridge Conference and placed two men, Vaughn and Fuller, on the All-Ridge-Conference team.

A fair-sized squad answered his call, and the boys went to work with a will to develop a team up to the high standard always maintained. John Tinsley was selected to fill the managerial post, and Gordon MacCalla was elected Captain to pilot the team through the season. The boys started out with veterans to fill several positions while the new' members on the squad put up a hot fight to fill the vacant positions. The Blue Devils broke into the winning column at the start, but towards the middle of the season the old jinx jumped the squad. Ineligibilities, injuries, and numerous other ailments afflicted the team. The team slipped a notch and could not hit its stride again in time to make any serious threat in the Ridge Conference Tournament.

E. Chadderdon. Katherine Ellis was elected Manager and Opal Dull, Captain. Under the direction of these officers, the girls entered the season full of confidence and with a team composed mainly of veterans. Many new members turned out to give the old-timers a stiff race for their positions. Coach Chadderdon tried several combinations that finally resulted in a smoothly working machine. During this season the girls’ team played twelve games. Eight games were won, two tied, and two lost. This is a mighty fine record and the coach and the girls certainly have our heartiest congratulations.

FORWARD CiUAC.0 I O 3 nTA SEE i i { i A , r . -jtA n� iMr Baseball1930 WING to the fact that the Philadelphia Baseball Club uses the baseball field where the Blue Devils practice, our boys do not get in much work before the season opens. As a result it is almost impossible for the team to round into shape for the first few games. This factor, combined with a small squad, makes it hard for Coach Leps to put out a winning team. Unfortunately this great national pastime does not receive the same enthusiastic support from the students as do Football and Basket-ball. However, the boys who turn out must be complimented on their efforts to build up a winning nine for the school. For the 1931 season little is known of the material that Coach Leps will have to work with as several of the veterans graduated last year. We know that, regardless of the size of the squad, the boys will work with the coach to turn out a successful Blue Devil team.

Many witty toasts and speeches were presented during the course of the evening. The Seniors were praised for the splendid leadership which they have displayed during the past year, and each one was extended their underclassmen’s sincere wishes for a most happy and successful career. We trust that the Seniors will leave Haven High with tender memories and the desire to fulfill the high standards of life which they have learned. It Won’t Be Long Now! JUST eight hours, thirty minutes and two seconds after noon on January 23, the Juniors presented their clever class play. We enjoyed the fine work of Richard Stoner as Robert Preston in the part of the hard, cold business man spending his last few hours on earth with Katherine Blood, Miss Ann Winston, as his inspiration. Lorette Shaw, the ’’lithping” gold digger, gave us many a laugh. Each member of the cast did commendable work and we are proud of them all. Here’s to the success of our Senior play of ’32.

J Because I didn't study. IF I HAD MY WAY AT SCHOOL 1. Book reports would consist of reading such worthy literary efforts as JUDGE and COLLEGE HUMOR. 2. School would start at 10 o’clock and be dismissed at 10:13. 3. All teachers would be absent every day. 4. Horse laughs and gum chewing would be freely permitted, particularly in study hall. 5. Lastly, if I had my way, I wouldn’t even go to school anyway. FOR OUR HALL OF FAME We nominate: 1. Lillian Craig and Willie Casey for their remarkable pulchritudinous countenances. 2.
