ORANGE AND BLACK SENIOR HISTORY 1? w ON the second day of September, nineteen hundred eighteen, began the long eventful journey for the class of nineteen hundred twenty-two in F. C. H. S. As freshmen, we were more or less bewildered, but as soon as we had become accustomed to the daily routine of the school, thanks to the teachers and upper-classmen, we began to branch out into various activities. At the first class meeting we elected the following officers: Francis Yoder, President; Ben Morgan, Vice-President; Fred Whitaker, Secretary; and Mildred Brown, Treasurer. Miss Minford was chosen Class Sponsor, and much of our success was due to her careful guidance. Among our social functions during our first year was the party given by the Sophomores. After the initiation given to us at the hands of our supposed superiors, we felt that we had a claim to a full fledged membership in the F. C. H. S. With lots of F. C. H. S. Spirit, we took an active part in all athletics. Two of our members were on the football squad. Also several of our members were out for both baseball and track. Since this part of our journey had been so pleasant, we anxiously looked forward to the next. In the fall of 1919, the members of the much abused but energetic class of ’22 laid aside their childish ways of the previous year, and entered the field of school activities as Sophomores. In the election of class officers, the following were chosen: Vernon Parsons, President; Francis Yoder, Vice-President; Margaret Cockeran, Secretary and Treasurer; and Mr. Sims, Class Sponsor. Our class was well represented this year in athletics. On the football field we had five men, in basket-ball we furnished two of the players and enjoyed the distinction of having one made Captain of the team. When the Student Council was organized, two representatives were selected from our group. In the Sophomore-Freshman Girls’ Glee Club, we furnished several members, as well as the pianist for two of the clubs. One social event which was thoroughly enjoyed, was the one given us by the Freshmen. We found them to be royal entertainers. In the year of nineteen-twenty, the best-ever class again entered the F. C. H. S. as Juniors. Class officers selected for the year were: Xenia Fouts, President; Ruth Goldner, Vice-President; Francis Yoder, Secretary and Treasurer; and Miss Beckett, Class Sponsor. At the beginning of the second semester, our president entered the Senior Class and Russell Pollard was elected to fill the vacancy. In November, we gave a party at the High School in honor of the Senior Class, inviting the Nebraska City and Falls City teams as our guests. The Juniors, true to their color, by no means neglected athletics. Six Juniors won their letter in football. On the basket-ball teams we were exceedingly well represented, furnishing two of the stars for the girls’ team and four for the boys’ team. We feel that we are to be duly commended in the choice of our class rings and pins, which proved to be a favorable investment. On April 16, 1921, occurred the banquet given by the Juniors in honor of the Class of ’21, which was a grand success and will be an occasion long to be remembered by those who attended. Page Fourteen
