Utatorp of Class of ’20 O N the eighteenth of September, 1916, we began our career as Freshmen in C. H. S. with thirty-six members in the class. Most of the students who finished the eighth grade the year before were present to continue work with their comrades and a number of new people came from various places to join our ranks. Green?

This year the school was rather unfortunate, as it was closed for a month on acount of the influenza epidemic, which everyone remem- bers. For this reason we were not able to cover as much work as we should have. Twenty-six
