Junior Class History We assembled at the Brush Union High School to start our high school career on the 7th day of September, in the year 1924. Everything went off smoothly, and our fear, caused by reports brought home to us by older brothers and sisters, soon vanished. The initiation was held at the river one evening after school. We went to attend the picnic given in our favor by the Seniors, and were rather surprised to be treated in the manner which we were. However, no one was hurt at this frolic and a few were benefited, due to the fact that the river water is very cleansing. We were always up and coming. Wherever the Maroon and Gold was seen, there also could he found our class as a body. We proved ourselves to he excel- lent backers for the athletic teams and by the time school was out we had won the respect of the other classes and were complimented highly by every member of the faculty. Our Sophomore year was much the same as the preceding year had been, with the exception of a few of the boys adapted themselves to the wearing of white collars, and the majority of the girls threw away their hair ribbons and became hold enough to be seen wearing hoy’s rings belonging to various upper classmen. However, we did take it upon ourselves to entertain, which we did by giving a Hallow’een party at the I. O. (). F. Hall. We gave a breakfast one morning in early spring. This breakfast was to find out which girls could cook, and to see which boys were early risers. In our Junior year we were extremely busy, as it was our task to put out the 1927 Sagebrush, besides giving a class play, conducting a carnival and entertaining the Seniors at a banquet. We feel that our class has not only proved to be a credit to the school, but also has set an excellent example for other classes to follow. The Junior class of 1928 has been represented in the following activities: Football, in which R. 11. S. was declared X. E. Colorado Champions in 1925 and 1924; basketball for both boys and girls, in which our girls won the State Championship of 1927; in all track events, including commercial, academic, and field. We have also taken an active part in Band, Glee Club, Pep Band, Operetta, and Mixed Chorus. Hr serves his party best who serves the country best.
