But when the time came for us to enter High School as Freshmen, our ego received a staggering blow. The Junior High building had seemed large to us, but the High School seemed enormous! The corridors were wide and were miles long. Had there ever been enough people in Webb City to fill the seats in the Study Hall? But surely there had been, or why would they have built the library to catch the overflow? Although we finally became accustomed to the bigness of things 'and were blessed with such excellent sponsors as Mr. Shover, Miss Thweatt, and Miss Denham, it took us almost the whole year to get organized-in other words, our Freshman year was a flop. fWhy didn't I say so in the first place? Because I was told to write six hundred words and I have to rave about something.J When we had achieved the height of being Sophomores, we began to wake up and enter into the activities of the High School. We had an efficient corps of officers -Glenn Lowe, president: Melba Gelling, vice president 1 Helen Custis, secretary, and Harold Gallagher, treasurer. Glenn Lowe and Lanona Flowers won second prizes in the music and voice contests at Pittsburg and first prizes in the inter-society contests held in Webb City. This same year Ross Johnson and Henry Damron were players indispensable to the football squad. Now, as Juniors, we are again feeling rather important. The members of our class are doing their best to raise the standard of the school even higher. Carl San- ders, Leslie Sanders, and Jay Wright, have done a great deal toward making our basketball team one of the best in Southwest Missouri. Henry Damron, Raymond Bettis and Ross Johnson are letter men in football and Raymond Bettis was elected football captain for next year. The Junior Play, Seventeen, was such an over- whelming success that almost the entire cast decided to go on the legitimate or into the movies ino offers have been made as yet, howeverj. The crowning event of the season will occur when the Juniors are hosts and hostesses to the dignified Seniors at a banquet given to honor the departing Senior.s, whose shoes we intend to fill so t admirably next year. if 2 VIRGINIA CLAIRE RATLIFF.
