CLASS HISTORY • In the fall of ’34 thirty timid boys and girls recruited from Brockway, Wendt, Greenwood, Bullock, Carless, and many other districts, made reserva- tions on the Senior Graduation ’38. With the twenty-three Yale pupils this made a total of fifty-three Freshmen who were going on this long journey. Allen Boughner, Elsie Bybee, Jack Colden, Everett Shaw, Phyllis Meharg, Charles Radloff, Marvin Chandler and Elsie Barr had been shipmates ever since they had started out on their educational cruise in ’25. The ship set sail proudly bearing floating banners of blue and old rose and the motto, We lead, others follow.” Mr. Fuller was our traveling consult- ant and guide, who was busy teaching and preparing us for the long journey ahead. Captain Stuart Ostrander; first and second mates, Margaret Armstrong and Glenford Palmateer, were hospitable to us. The first port reached was Freshman Isle. We were enchanted by its charms and had a wonderful time. Some of the highlights of the island were our Get Acquainted Party,” the Beach Party, and our big Roller Skating Party. Some were loath to depart and took no heed of the ship when it sailed away. Next fall at the sound of All Aboard” we found ourselves being shown to our place by Captain Al Boughner. The ship was piloted by Mr. Whitney. The three stewardesses, Phyllis Meharg, Berenetta Park, and Jennie Harla, saw to it that we were always comfortable and were enjoying our trip. When we landed at the Sophomore Isle we found many things difficult. Here we were glad to have Beatrice Ryder from Port Huron and Anne Jerlecki from Mem- phis join us for the rest of the trip. We had a wider variety on our menu with Geometry instead of Algebra. Here we began thinking that we would need some spending money when we embarked upon the Promised Land. The girls donned their aprons and went to the kitchen where they baked some very de- licious cakes and pies for the Bake Sale. This was the first money we put into our treasury. Since the girls were so ambitious about doing their task the boys were hosts at a Weiner Roast at the lake. To while away our idle hours we de- cided to put on a Sophomore Carnival. Preparations began in May with the play Aunt Sophronia at College,” under the direction of Miss Behling. The Big Carnival came off June 17, and was enjoyed by everyone. When we began the third lap of our journey we had some new passen- gers, namely Treasure Groat, Irene Hillicker, R. G. Taylor, Doris Utter, Viola Young, Clarence Fair and Jean Sparling. Coach Hanna safely piloted the ship this time. At last Junior Isle was reached, and all of the voyagers landed and spent a very pleasant year. Here the Captain changed to Kenneth Kook with Lois Middleton as first mate and Jim Old as second. It wasn’t very long be- fore we Juniors proudly flashed our rings and pins with our initials and Y. H. S. on them. To keep the financial end of the trip going we sponsored a Roller Skating Party by which we profited well. This was a very interesting year with some of us peeking at Caesar’s ghost, while others were learning why we stayed on the ground instead of flying off. About this time we reached the conclusion ( Continued on next page) 16
