SENIOR BANQUET,

The annual Senior banquet Of
Cony High school which was held
Monday evening at the Augusta
House. was one of the most enjoy
| able events of the four, years for the
! class of 1928. A very fine banquet
was served and the several class
parts were delivered including the
class history. will, and the presenta-
ton of gifts.
The class marched into the ban
quet hall to music furnished by
Phillip Merrill at the piano. Places
| were found by place cards made of
a white background. These were the
work Of Miss Melissa Farnham, the
| class artist.
the courses and after the final
course. President Frank Harrington
introduced Sanford Fogg. Jr., who
acted as POSTMASTER. The class
prophecy was written by Richard
Boyd and Dorothy Stone. When
"Dick" was called upon to give his
address he announced that this was
| the first time that he had ever been
| called upon to give an address in
public and that he would oblige, his
address being IL Western Avenue.
| This left the brunt of the burden to
Miss Stone. who certainly did fine
stunt She proposed that they take a
voyage along the Atlantic coast
twenty years hence en- a vessel com
! manded by skipper" Quimby. AS
| the ship proceeded on it's voyage,
stopping at different points along the
coast to pick up members of the
class. a fine chance was offered to
tell the future of each.
! A splendid class history was given
| by Eleanor Lewis who has been class
| historian for four years and has kept
a very interesting and comprchen-
(! sive story of the class and its doings.
Helen Dyer and SeUell Austin
presented the gifts to 1.-The class, the
girls receiving theirs from Miss
Dyer while Soup" gave the boys
! theirs in more ways than one. These
gifts were take offs on the various
characteristics of the members OF
! the class.
The class will which was prepared
| by Donald Johnson proved beyond a
doubt that he is a good lawyer. The
class of "a was willed the excep-
tional ability now possessed by the
class of '23, and $50 chair bottoms
were willed to John Fowler the
janitor, to be put in the chairs at
assembly hall, so as to stimulate at
| tendance at the assemblies. There
were also individual gifts and be-
quests.
Coach Thompson was then called
! upon for a few words. He said that
| he had not much use for farewells
unless they could be engineered as
! two of the class were in the habit OF
doing. that is by going to the sta
ton every time a train came in, this
giving them a chancesfo make their
! farewells very affecNonate.
Mr.. Quimby in proposing his
toast which was the last thing on the
program said that if he were writing
! the history of the class he would be
able to put into it many things which
were only known by certain individ-
uals in the class and by himself. He
spoke of the fact that they had had
their differences but that these had
been fixed up to the satisfaction of
all. He then proposed that all
should try their best to be present
| in ten years if class reunion should
be called. The toast was drunk with
all on their feet. The banquet
closed with the singing of Cony
songs.
