Senior Room Delights
Class of ’29
When the class of '29 had
reached their third year they
received a reward, the promise
of a senior room for the forth­
coming year. This greatly delight­
ed them, for the study hall was
already overcrowded and the
class really needed the quiet of
a separate room.
The senior room has proved
a success. At the beginning of
each period a teacher takes
charge of the room and the stu­
dents studying there. As the
room is quite large there is
ample room for the table on
which a set of encyclopedia is
nt one end conveniently placed.
On the walls the seniors have
hung attractive calendar pictures.
At the front of the room above
the blackboard is hung the pic­
ture of Mr.
Wilkerson,
the
senior class advisor. Below the
picture the clock, a present from
Mr. Wilkerson is placed on a
small shelf. On the desk or book
table the seniors keep their valu­
ed trophies, won in football or
other games.
Although the seniors nre oc­
casionally noisy and undignified,
they renlly appreciate their room
ami thank their advisor for the
gift.
