Simple Simon met a Senior on initiation day. Now if you could see our Simon after a year of school. He d prove to you. dear Senior, he no longer was a fool. On September 3, 1940, the Freshman Class invaded the halls of Brush High. Although ninety in number, they were timid little things, naive, lacking self-confidence, and with that lost look so typical of Freshmen. The Seniors, however, took much pleasure in making them feel at home, and, in fact, dedicated two days to the welcom- ing of the “greenhorns. The class elected Jimmy Price, president; Folmer Christensen, vicepresident; John Gill, secretary'treasurer; and Jeanne Anne Webster, student representative. Miss Eagle and Mr. Schlater were selected as sponsors. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY £ 16 ]

Naturally the class of '43 didn't try to overrule tradition. The only thing it did was to furnish the entire schcx l with a movie. As sophomores, the class had a hayride to which they all invited guests. This was considered a success, although much of the f(xxl disappeared before the guests were fed. As efficient sophomores, the class members also performed the duty of decorating the stage for graduation. C 15 3

FRESHMAN ACTIVITIES The Freshmen were first able to display their talents when they constructed a gigantic bonfire at the annual Homecoming rally. In fact, they built one of the largest fires in the history of the ritual. Here the student body received refreshments, and then paraded around town singing and cheering. Afterwards the enthusiastic crowd attended the Emerson Theatre as guests of the management of the theater. The Freshmen, not to be out-done by the Seniors, who had taken the school to the theater at the close of initiation ceremonies in September, also treated the student body to a moving picture at the end of the school year.
