JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Whistling to keep 'their spirits up, 105 freshmen slung their hats on the hooks and slammed their books in their desks in the fall of 1932. Hall's Lake greeted them in the rain at the freshman picnic, and the owner of the Coterie Clubhouse had plenty of fsjweeping to doafter the boisterous freshmen left. Warreii Bieber and Mrs. Hallie Anderson took the sophomores under their wing and if they are sometimes depressed it may be because of that exasperating sophomore class of '33. They were bright little children, though, having thirteen Torch members. Jack King gained plenty of popuf larity for his tooting, too. They scratched up the gym floor and had sore feet for a week after the sophomore dance. Almost a hundred juniors were presented to E. T. Parsons and Mrs. Grace Bliss in the fall of '34. They galloped around again at the junior dance: won applause for nonsense in the junior assemblyg turned their ankles and wrecked the rink at the junior skating party, and showed their acting ability in the junior play and the Indian LovefCharm. - SOPHOMORE HISTORY Paul McGibbon and Miss Ruth McConihe had just dusted their hands of the present junior class when they turned around to view a hundred more freshmen stampeding their doorways in the fall of '33. Ivir. McGibbon jumped up to bar the door and Miss McConihe got out her shotgun. Several fell before the shotgun but many proved their athletic ability was unassailable when they completely overwhelmed Mr. McGibbon. They became too hot to hold so Mr. Bieber and Mrs. Anderson tried to tame them. On the basketball floor, by the way, they squelched the juniors and even the seniors. They had plenty of acting ability, too. - FRESHMAN HISTORY From little freshmen do great whatfafman seniors grow. They have begun to sprout already judging from the good showing they made in the freshman assembly. Though most of them are quite miniature in size, they still have three years to grow in! Outstanding athletic ability has not yet been shown by thcm but there is plenty of time for that. All that they have to do is hack down a coupla alders a day, hoe about two gardens and milk six cows each morning and night. - G E N E S I S Although most pages of this Echo are filled with the glorifications, thrills and memories of high school days, we cannot be restrained from thoughts of grade-school days. Only a characteristic case of impecuniosity fmild but firmj stops us from recording our full school life in this book. Mrs. Jennie Beebe, Miss Frances Anderson, and Miss Ruth Turner, the principals of our three grade schools are deserving of our lasting esteem and memory for many pleasant grade-school-days at Alderwood, Edmonds, and Esperance. lContinued on Page 491 twentyfone
