PERISCOPE Page 25 Forrette Gerlinger Page Junior Class History Loyalty to the higher and better interests of Dallas High School has marked the history of the 1 927 Junior Class. For our first and probably most difficult year, we elected the following officers: President. Harold Bevens; Vice president, Laura Boilcau; Secretary and Treasurer, Charles Campbell. By the willing and devoted assistance of our class adviser. Miss Magness, and other faculty members we safely weathered this first year, and became Sophomores with our class intact. During our second year, we were guided by the following officers: President. Charles Campbell: Vice President. Harold Bevens: Secretary and Treasurer, Laura Boileau: class adviser. Mr. Pillard. We maintained our good record established in our first year, being represented in athletics as well as in debate and declamatory contests. The reception given the incoming Freshman class by our class proved to be a most successful affair, establishing the Freshmen as our fricnls throughout the rest of the year. As Juniors we proved our real worth to our Alma Mater. We placed seven men on the basketball squad, three of them being first team men, and the others being on the second string. Three of the four men on the tennis team belonged to our class. Five o! the regulars on the baseball team were Juniors, and others were substitutes. We also had one member of our class on the debate team, and many of our members were point winners on the track squad. Our activities were directed by the following officers: President, Jack Forrette: Vice President, Carl Gerlinger: Secretary and Treasurer, Dorothy Page. One of the biggest successes of this year was the play, “Officer 666 , given by the Junior class and coached by Miss Gray, class adviser. We are looking forward with eager anticipation to our Senior year, and hoping that we may exhibit as much pep, enthusiasm and school spirit as we have in the past.

PERISCOPE Page 27 LeFors Gerlinger Sibley Bollman Sophomore Class History On a certain rainy day in the year of our Lord nineteen-hundred and twenty-five, forty verdant little Freshmen gazed with awe at the building in which they were to pass four eventful years in trying to pursue that elusive thing, called Knowledge. Starting our first session with the spirit that has characterized us through our two years in D. H. S., we elected Miss Magness, class adviser; Robert Hayter, president; Paul Bollman. vice president: Dorothy Minnich, secretary and treasurer. We Freshmen had a wonderful time at the party given us by the class of '28. We threw a kid party the next semester in honor of the mid-year Freshies. Although they were not bounteously fed, since we ran out of funds, everyone seemed to have a good time. Several of our members were lost at the end of the year in floundering through the Deep River of Final Exams. The next year we lost all our freshness and foolishness and became sophisticated Sophomores. The new Freshmen were shown a few things by our class. At the first of the term we elected officers, as follows: Robert LeFors, president: Bert Gerlinger, vice president; Catherine Sibley, secretary; Paul Bollman. treasurer. Miss Jamie Farmer was elected class advisor, and has proved to be an exceptional coach for the debaters and declamatory speakers, as our representatives won first place. The Reception which we gave for the new Freshmen at the first of the year was a great success and a large crowd was present. During the second semester Margaret Brown entertained our class at her home. We will always remember the good time we had at her party and the artistic paper hats we all made. The Sophomores are prominent in school athletics, as we have members of our class on the high school baseball team, track team, basketball team and football team. Our representatives in the Declamatory Contest, Betty Jelinek and Richard Webb, won first place in their division, and Richard also won the grand sweepstakes gold medal.
