So many pupils, when they have completed the eighth grade or perhaps attend high school one or two years, drop out and look for some sort of employment and very few ever go back to finish after missing a year. Let us hope that we, beginning as freshmen, may realize what an education will mean to us, and complete our four year course in nineteen hundred thirty-six. We have missed the joy of association with our upperclassmen because our hours were changed, but with the help of the handy book we were able to find our way about the school without too much confusion. We thank our teachers for their thoughtfulness and patience in helping us over the rough places and for the association that has made this year so pleasant and successful. We are especially indebted to our sponsor, Miss Nelle Cook. Most likely, at the beginning of next year, we shall stand in Wyandotte halls among juniors and seniors and continue to call to the freshman, Elevators at the end of the hall,', and Get your assembly seat tickets here. As we look backward upon our freshman year, we feel that it has been well spent. We enter our sophomore year with our aim being 0nward and Upward. We have been very fortunate in the selection of our class officers. Our president, Richard Pierce, who attended Roosevelt grade school last year, is especially interested in basketball and is a prominent player on the Freshman team under the sponsorship of I-l. Lee Kammeyer and Norman Williams. Vice-President, Betty Gene Ross, came from Wichita, Kansas before entering Wyandotte High School. She is interested in sports. Louise Miller, secretary, attended Central grade school last year. l'ler favorite hobby is art work. The treasurer, Albert Muzenick, also from Roosevelt, is quite interested in art. Louise Miller, '36

Our pocl4etbool4s were thin but our minds were cheerful as we contemplated the Sophomore year. Oh mel The results of the first six weelcs of labor were terrifying. Many a mourner remarlced, Oh, if this agony were only over and l had a job. A job, my friend, a job. You have a job that requires six hours a day, five days a weelc, and thirty-six weelcs of a year. The job of youth is attendance at school. True, school attendance is a law, but it is a law to which obedience is a privilege. As Virgil, the Latin poet said, l lappy is he that l4nows the cause of things. A good highschool education provides one with lcnowl- edge of the world. lndeed, schooling is most necessary. Investigation shows that three out of four have the same degree of success in college and life that they have in high school. There are many rungs in the ladder of success. The first is wise choice of vocation . . . a choice that talces into account natural interest and aptitude and that insures variety and chance of promotion. Other rungs are character traits, perseverance, which enables one to carry on successfully a chosen undertaking, industry, which keeps one plugging away, day after day, accuracy and thoroughness, which improve the taslc by disposing of minute details, and self confidence, which contributes much to social success and personal satisfaction. Our class numbering over seven hundred is composed of last year's students of the Junior l'ligh Schools and the Freshman class of Wyandotte. We have been fortunate in having Miss Lulu Mcffanles as our class sponsor. The officers chosen by the majority vote of the students are: l 'lomer Wilson, president, Robert Pierce, vice-president, Marjorie Simmons, secretary, Eldon Smith, treasurer. Marjorie Simmons, '35
