The Lambertville record., 1925-06-18

DiiOSc, AHIiOHy oIuIdiohi, GltOu
Naylor, and Annie Woolaver. We
also had a few people join US from
Mt. Pleasant, Gladys Sewers, Louise
Bidewell, and Lester Van Syckle.
Lester, surely did make the straw
berry blondes fall for him with
his wonderful line. We must not,
however, give all the credit to
Syckle, for Charles Zavitkovsky has
shown his ability to lead cheers and
has done himself credit. We hope
that Zavitkovsky still has the
same courage and pep when he is
old and gray, bossing the plow
around on cute little farm all his
own.
In our Junior year we had to
work hard to keep the good name
we had won and we surely did
work. We had flower tag day, for
the benefit of the Seniors Washing
ton trip and every Junior girl either
helped to sell the flowers or had
helped to make them. We then took
up proposition that Mr.. Snyder
had put before us, of selling the
Ladies' Home Journal, making so
much on each magazine. We made
the Seniors a present of $4,000.
We entered the Halloween parade
that was held in October and took
first prize. Almost every one in
the class took part. Our float was
beautifully decorated in our class
eolors, blue and white.
At the end of our Junior year
we gave Prom, in honor of the
Seniors of 1924. The Prom was
held on June 6, in st. Andrews Hall
with Palmer's Orchestra. The Hall
was beautifully decorated by Mr..
Sloer of Trenton, New Jersey. We
had a Paul Jones dance in which
every one took part. 1t is said that
the Prom of 1924, was one of the
best ever held by the High School.
We leave our old Junior Class and
begin life anew as dignified Seniors.
We did not use these words to-
gether before, but we surely did
use the first part of dignifed. We
all had to "dig" during our Senior
year so that we could accomplish
the same result as the Seniors Of
1924-the Washington Trip.
Our Class advisor and class Off
GERS for our Junior year were more
than satisfactory, so we did not
making any change for our Senior
class.
We opened our farewell year by
giving a Halloween dance in Oc-
tober.
We then sat up and took notice
that in our class we had quite
few amatuer actors-Fred Ryan.
Warren Cummings, Francis Riordan,
Thelma Hicks, Ada Shoham, and
many others who showed wonderful
talent in "All Aboard"
We all enjoyed our Christmas
vacation. Then again in March the
class staged Seventeen" which was
coached by Miss Fay Goodfellow.
This play proved to be one of the
best ever presented, with Harry
Callan, as our Willie, and Mary
Conover, of our sister class,
acting as Jane, Annie Woolaver, who
took the part of the baby talk lady
and Mary Pedrick, as her girl friend.
Thelma Hicks and Russell Bowe
took exceedingly good parts, as
Mr.. and Mrs. Baxter. Others of
the class who figured as characters
never will be forgotten.
Throughout the year there were
Seniors on the staff of the High
School paper, Mary Pedrick as Ad-
vertising Manager and Thelma Hicks
as Circulation Manager. Fred Ryan
as Editor in Chief, with Warren
Cummings as News Editor.
Our Debating team is one that
will long be remembered. By the
everlasting efforts of Carolyn Lee,
Annie Woolaver, Fred Ryan and
Warren Cummings, we won the de-
bate from Flemington. This we
have been trying to do for years,
we have at last broken the jinx.
To raise money for our Wash
ington trip we held pie and cake
sales. These sales were held in the
Union Fire House and were in charge
of different members of our class
who acted as chairman for each
sale.
We also had a moving picture
benefit that brought in quite some
money.
Through the efforts of Mr.. Burr
and the Seniors, our next and per-
haps the most important drive to
make money was Senior Day,
WHlCit was On MAY Gnus oi tiiS
day we had pie and cake sale,
tag day, baseball game, and a
dance. This proved to be one of the
best money making schemes we had
ever undertaken. We came across
with a bang. Thanks to Mr.. Burr.
Ohl what a grand and glor-
ious feeling. On May 14th the
Senior Glass left for Washington,
D. C. making a three day trip. 1t
is useless to try to tell every
thing that was seen and heard but,
we the Seniors of 1925, will never
forget that we went to Washing
ton, and shook hands with the
President of the United States.
