THE CLINTONIA Junior Class History What a beautiful thing are memories. As old Mother C. C. II. S., in all her splendor and magnifiicence, recalls bygone days, certain memories are outstanding. But as she reflects, there comes one timid thought, of the Freshmen class of nineteen hundred and twenty-six. My, what a crowd they were—one hundred and forty-five of them scattered here and there in different organizations under the leadership of Miss Bulkley, and with Ruth Ingham, Lois Hull, Georgia Edwards, Harriet Reeser and Ilomer Gash as their council. With the addition of twenty-five enrollments, in the second semester, they still remained a large body until their Sophomore year. Then as she ponders on, other thoughts of this happy throng appear. As Sophomores organized under Miss Marshall, their advisor, with Lois Hull, Richard Taylor, Ilomer Gash, Harriet Reeser and Floy Parker as their council. They worked diligently and had their share of sports and other amusements. Although their enrollment had decreased, those remaining had prepared themselves for greater things as Juniors. A smile spreads over her face as the thought comes of those noble Juniors and their work under Miss Rose, the advisor for Junior classes. And how important they felt as they realized their opportunity for a real election of officers. They found they had chosen George Ingham, President; Lois Hull, Vice-President; Ruth Ingham, Secretary, and Floy Parker as Treasurer. They also elected a council consisting of the officers, together with Edna Kileen, Edna Francis Gano, Virginia Harmon, Virginia Wood, Georgia Edwards, Margaret Green, Harriet Reeser and Robert Anderson. For representative of their school paper, the MARGOL, they selected Esco Rhea and Oressa Lynch. As the middle of the year approached plans were made for their class play, “The Goose Hangs High.” And oh ! how thrilled they were over its success and approbation. Then individual pictures of Juniors were requested by the Seniors for their CLIX-TOXIA. With Miss Ross they again were very busy sponsoring such affairs as the Athletic and Alumni banquets. Athletics and all other organizations were well represented by this class. And now, numbering eighty, they are still striving for their goal as Seniors in nineteen-thirty. Thus with these last thoughts, the memories of Mother C. C. II. S are crowded together to be recalled again in another year. Floy Parker. Ttroil ii-Tour
