an V It ff W H' II | I, THE .BOOMER m Senior Class History When we entered the “halls of learning” in ‘26 we were the largest Freshman class that had ever been enrolled and, although our number has diminished, everyone is still fighting loyally to uphold our banner. Although we did not break any records in our Freshman year,, three of our girls captured places on the B. B. Team and had their pictures taken with some of the upperclassmen, an honor you know. Some of the boys raised our hope. for next year by getting on the second team in foot ball. We sure worked to raise lots of money to nut our popularity queen. Edna Thomas, on top and we almost won too, got second place. In our Sophomore year, we again had three girls on the B. B. Team but seven boys on the football team. See, we gradually came to the front in High School activities as well as gaining so much knowledge through books and experience. Our third year we gave the “dignified seniors” and the faculty a very successful banquet. Our Japanese flower garden was very beautiful and the menu and Japanese waiters and waitresses made one really feel like they were in Japan. The characters in the Junior Play, entitled “The Cross-Eyed Parrot” received much fame. That year more of our hopes were realized, the captain of the girls B. B. Team came from our group. Our boys and girls did well in athletics. There were three girls on the B. B. Team, four boys on the Football team, four boys on the track team. Just think of the “W’s” that were awarded to us and how many of our number are in the “W” Club. This, our last year, has been a year of activity. See what W. H. S. is losing by graduation—five girls from B. B., five boys from football, and also track. Again we claim some captains—girls B. B. and football. Some of our boys seem to like to debate, at least they are gaining in fame every day in this way. A new custom has been started this year and we have been the first to gain honors. A football queen has been chosen and who should it be but Lucille Adams our own nominee for popularity queen. We gave a burlesque to supply amusement for everyone. We sure had lots of fun showing the teachers how we see them. One day every Senior got a job an. Oh! What fun we had earning money to help finance the Boomef. If you will read a list of the Honor Society, you will see that we have been trying to follow our Motto—“If you can’t win, make the fellow in front break the record.” Our class is not only talented in athletics and learning but also in different musical lines. When ever there was any demand for music we were always ready to help out. We have always had part in the bands, operettas, and the impromptu selections in chapel. Ruth T. ’30.
