Class of 1911 Magnifies Hidden Talents and Goodbyes
A vivid portrait of SHS Class of 1911 features student talents, music and humor, with Florence Beatty pursuing studies in Vienna, Ruth Melville as cook and leader, Florence Wolpert as future teacher, and a humorous senior gift list highlighting personalities like Mathews, Weinstein and Swearingen. The piece celebrates the first SHS class to don caps and gowns while imagining a formal sendoff with keepsakes and jokes.
