Iltstorj) Early in the autumn of 1906 we came to the High school, jogging along at the usual pace of Freshmen. We were given the hearty reception that beginners receive each year. The first month we organized our class, elected officers, adopted colors and composed our yells of which other classes soon became aware- Martin Souders was elected president, Vera Anderson vice president, Oakel Young secretary and treasurer. We soon had money in the treasury and a curious tin bank was given to the class by Vera Anderson. This bank we have kept through the four years of High school. Both boys and girls began active work in athletics the first year; the girls had a complete class team in basket ball and there were two from the class who were substitutes for the High school team. For our Sophomore year we re elected both Martin Souders and Oakel Young to their former offices. We took an active and creditable part in the debating contest, there being four debaters from our class. We had two girls in the girls’ basket ball team and one boy in the boys’ team. Ethel McElhaney was captain of the team this year and the two following years. Wa also had several parties and a sleigh ride. We regret to say that we lost one of our prominent members, Lettie Bryant. However, our loss was Omaha’s gain since she entered the High school there. Upon entering our third year of High school we elected Paul Stoehr president. Oakel Young was re-elected secretary and treasurer for the third time. We did not keep Paul as our president long for he entered the Senior class and we elected John Stoddard to fill the vacancy- We had the honor of having one of our classmates, Mildred Hanna, on the debating team, and three girls on the girls’ basket ball team. The boys made second place in the High school field meet, and helped the school in winning their points at the district meet. At the close of the year Carl Holmes left us to enter the Omaha High school. Here again our loss was Omaha’s gain. As Seniors we have furnished the entire debating team and all but one member of the basket ball team. The debating team was composed of LaVeta Snow, John Stoddard and Ruth Kelligar. LaVeta was chosen to represent us in the Southeastern debate and received third place. We are also proud of the fact that so many of the Senior girls are in the A. H. S. Glee club, and that we have one member, Hallie Workman, who received first place in the district declamatory contest and made a high standing in the state contest This shows that there is talent along many lines in the class of '10. The faculty was kind enough to give us a day for a picnic this year. Miss Shively went with us and we spent the day among the beautiful hills of Brownville. Although we did not arrive home until late in the night, we were alll at school the next day on time and able to do double work.
