Lois Fraley Frank Burnett Ruth Herbert Vice-Pres. President Sec’y.-Treas. Class History The Class of ’29, following its many predecessors, has not been unusual in its organization and routine of activities. However, the type of individual character has made the class distinctive. During our first year we elected Wilbur Jurgensen president. The same year we organized a Freshmen Rooters’ Club, the officers of which were Otis Zahrn, president, and Georgan McLaughlin, secretary. The big event of the year was the party given us by the Class of ’28. When we were sophisticated sophs, our president was Frank Burnett; vice-president was Jimmy Ahlgrim; secretary, Marion Anderson; and treasurer, Georgan McLaughlin. By the time we were juniors things began to hum. Frank Burnett was elected president; Lois Fraley, vice-president; Marion Anderson, secretary ; and James Ahlgrim, treasurer. On January 26, we gave the play “The Genius.” In place of the customary prom we inaugurated the plan of a banquet followed by dancing. And now, our senior year is finished. Our senior officers are pictured above. Members of our class have been prominent in all the athletic activities, in the orchestra and band, the student government, clubs, and social functions. .. - ! ». [19]
