Kenneth Gardner, our hand- some President leaves his art of making goo-goo eyes to any one who displays a skirt, especially the uneven ones to no other than the honorable Shiek Marvin Gleason. To Jene Workman goes his accuracy and speed in typing. Muriel Miller, our much loved secretary and captain of our crew leaves her high C note to Thelma Lodge and her willing ways to Vada Watts the very timid Sophie. In remembrance of his old friendg Maurice Wash Metzcar bequeaths his new patented cig- arette case to F. Dale Mann. Al- so he leaves seven and one half cents for which to buy a pack to fill it providing Maurice gets fif- teen of them. He leaves his error making ability in typing to Paul Duncan. Mary Hamilton leaves asatok- en of her love for old Y. H. S. her ability to love everybody regard- less of sex to Martha Skinner so she may not vamp or revamp the any members of the Facluty. Charline F uson leaves her ex- pensive smile to Cleo Snodgrass while she says nobody can have her volume of dates because nobody can fill dates like Char- line. To Charlie Byerley, Woody leaves his stripped shirt fthe blue and white onel and wills his spats' to no other than Sam Mitchell's youngest son, John. Maria who is a charter mem- ber of the class leaves her recipe of how to get the best out of mar- ried life and still get an education to no other than Helen Johnson. Be careful Wayne. yes! Farrell gives his per- ? J-I 1 'mtg , f: -11 . V . ' JUNIOR CLASS manent wave pamphlet to Bud' Cox. But his world's speed record between Cammack and the Burg has yet to be shattered. Dorothy Epperson leaves her good looks and ability to be an actress to Grace Borum. But she says she will keep her recipe of how to keep her hosiery looking like new all the time. lHere's the low down girlsg its Lux. J Alfred Snodgrass, our dare- devil motor cycle rider leaves all that was left from his great Har- ley Davidson, after his midnight ride of March 23, 1930, which was only a spark plug wrench, to Pete Parkin son. Arretta Reed leaves a number of sample cook books to any girl who may be lucky enough to get one. She leaves her ability of making straight A's to Atha Car- 1 oline. As for Oren and I we wish the Juniors all the luck and success in the world toward winning the Class Tourney next year. Because we know they would like to have a Championship shield like ours The Senior Class of 1930 do hereby declare null and void all wills and documents proceeding this one, so we hereby seal as George and Benjamin always did. on this 27th day of March, 1930.

An important feature of the meeting was a debate: Resolved that Latin should be studied in the high school. The aflirmative side was taken by Joseph Sutton and Carl McShurley of the first year class while the negative was taken by Paul Duncan and Claire Snodgrass of the Caesar Class. Many inter- esting points were given by each side but the afiirmatives were judged the winners by Dorothy Epperson, Mary Hamilton, and Alfred Snodgrass. 5 . A poem entitled The English Language was read by Elizabeth Goodwin also a interesting talk concerning the District Latin Contest was given by Velma Umberger. This is the iirst year of Res La- tinae and through this we have learned many things that we did not have time for in regular class. For 1930-31 we are hoping to have . more winners in the Latin contest. Beulah Curtis Reporter. Junior Class Play The Junior Class gave the play Areon .Boogs, F reshman last Wed. evenig.
