Senior Class History In September, 1925, we, the Senior Class of nine- teen hundred and thirty-seven, started out on the great adventure of attending school. Miss Onsgard was our teacher, and we were all very fond of her and also of our music teacher, Miss Jorgensen. Our superintendent was Mr. Lokensgard. Of the 57 students graduating now, 9 were together in the first grade.' They are: Lloyd, Curtis, Ole, Kenneth, Russel, Stanford, Barbara Jean, Beatrice, and Phyllis. Our second grade teacher was Mrs. Jesse Olson, and she had a hard time trying to convince us that we were not too, too important, even though we were no longer the youngest group in school. That year Hazel joined our grade. T Miss Erickson taught us in the third grade how to write with pen and ink, and, much as we loved this, on those certain days of the week, we would go home looking considerably blacker than when we had come. 'With our fourth grade teacher, Miss Goebel, we had a school picnic at Smith's. We were getting old enough so that we could go farther than the Tourist Park for our annual picnic. Our fifth grade teacher was Miss Barnes. Violet was added to the number of our grade, and that year Mr. Gimmestead came to Dawson. Miss Livingston and Miss Finden were our sixth and seventh grade teachers. In the seventh grade Palmer joined our class, and we had our first school party, which proved quite a success. Miss Bacon piloted us through the eighth grade and the state exams, preparing us, as best she could, for the ngreenn future in store for us. That year Wendell and Evelyn were added to the membership of our class. As freshmen, we entered school the next fall, wide- eyed, and perhaps even wide-mouthed. After the usual orgy of getting into wrong classes, and such other dif- ficulties, we felt quite at home. We were horribly em- barrassed one fine evening that fall, when given a party by the worldly sophomores. However, after the initiatio we were served a delicious lunch which eased our woes. The following autumn, we revelled in teasing that year's freshmen by making them, among other things, wear their clothes backwards. We were proud to have them for the class behind us, however, as they showed such ns excellent sportsmanship. Ada joined our ranks that year,
