Fresh- men have a lot to learn, as we soon found out. We were the largest class to enrol! for several years past, our number being one hundred and twenty-five strong. In our infancy we made a good showing in athletics. We were well represented in all the major sports of the school. In base- ball we surely knew our stuff. We beat the Senior team, thus winning the championship. When we looked back over our Freshmen year, we were very proud of our record, and determined to make our Sophomore year even a bigger success. As Sophomores we made our motto of “It can be done ’ This motto we determined to live up to, and we did. In our Junior year we retained our motto of “It can be done.” We were seventy members this year, but many of our fellow students have been showing their ability in all branches of school activities. This class furnished the student-body yell leader. This year, as Seniors, many members of our class have participated in the various school organizations and in athletics. In the middle of the year our president, Harbert Richards, left school, and the vice-president, Roger Burum, became president, his position being filled by John Doser. Senior ditch day was he!d on April 16, at Atascadero Lake. Although now we have reached the goal for which we have been striv- ing. we are all sorry to leave our dear old Alma Mater.
