--- — D. H. S. PERISCOPE =====-------- CHAPTER I Freshman Year Entering the halls of Dallas High on September 27, 1934, was a group of wide-eyed, frightened youngsters, eager to start their high school education, but a little tim.-d, an almost afraid 'to move for fear that they would make a mistake. However, after a few weeks, they found their places in the life of the school,and everything went along smooth.y. To make them feel more at hone, the sophomores gave them a receotion, v-hich everyone enjoyed. Of course, every class must have some one to guide through the year, and tills class elected Gilbert Schneider, president; Bob Dalton, vice-president; Mildred Voth, secretary-treasurer; and Mr. Robert Kutch as faculty advisor. These officers were very capable, and led the class successfully through the first year. Many of the members took part in the athletic events cf the year, and a few made quite a name for themselves as athletes. The girls proved to be as athletic as the boys, placing several members on the tumbling team, and taking mart in various other, activities. The most important event in the lives of the rooks at the last of the school year was the tug-o'-war, held annually between the freshmen and sophomores, but disappointment was keen when the freshmen were the ones to be pulled through LaCreole creek. The boys were good sports and did not seem to mind the ducking too much. CHAPTER II Sophomore Year' The second year began with the class feeling a little more superior than they had at the beginning of the first year. I-Mgh hopes were held by the sophomores for the coming year, but, as a whole, the year was quite uneventful. The sooheraores again gave the freshmen a reception, but since t.ne newness of going to high school had worn off, there was not quite the same thrill that there had been when they were the ones receiving the reception.. As usual, there were many activities in which the members of the class could enter, and the group was well represented in all. Debate, glee club, and athletics for both boys anu girls, were enjoyed by all who participated.
