CLINTONIA l927 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 28 Everything's ready, called Mechanic Ward to Pilot Edmunds, as he gave the plane the last going overn before that Freshmen Gang, with Miss Sawyer as the leader, should be accepted as passengers on that plane to go on the road of education. We started on our journey in September of 1924 with one hundred-four members. While we were on this journey, we elected our council: Gladys Williamson, Dorothy Fosnaugh, Catherine Burns, Louise Hall, Oliver Wood, Thomas Day, and Thomas Armstrong. Alden Vfilson served as our athletic representative. We, also, received the good news that our Freshmen class was well reprecented in athletics. At the close of the school year l925, we landed here on earth determined to go farther by the end of l926. ln September of l925, we again resumed our journey with the same pilot and mechanic, but with a different advisor. Under the supervison of Miss Marshall we elected our council and representative. Our social events con- sisted of a party and a picnic, after which We landed for the second time. We were all very anxious now to become juniors. ln September of l926 ninety-six Juniors came back to go still farther along the road of education We had just realized that we had become the possessors of a new mechanic that year. Mr. Robb from Colorado had agreed to come with us. With our same pilot, a new mehanic, and a different advisor we, the members of the Junior class, started on our way.. As we were given liberty, we elected a president who was as well qualified as George Washington himself-Ivan jenkins. Our vice-president was Evelyn Greeng our secretary, Hershel Cole: our treasurer, Rhea Gilliland. On this third at- tempt of our four years' journey the Junior class had four of its members on the basketball team, and seven members on the regular football squad. We were well represented in the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs as Well as in other school organizations. As we are nearing the end of our third attempt, juniors, let us all come back next year and be as successful, if not more so, than we have been in the past. At the close of our fourth journey let us go out into life with our minds clear and with an ambitionuto beat our own record of each day's task. - LUCILE ARMSTRONG. Page Twenty-Six
