CLASS OF 1936 President ....... Donald Engstrom Secretary .......... William Baillon V. President ...... Wallace Lystad Treasurer ........ George Thompson Adviser: Miss Lee Our Junior Class this year was quite successful in carrying out the projects which it undertook. The first one was the selling of pop at the homecoming carnival. Rv means of this we were able to put about four dollars into our treasury. The next project we undertook was the delivering of the Christmas seals. This has never been done hv any of the classes of previous vears. Miss Ixe, our capable adviser, presented this scheme. For 'every packet of seals delivered, the cost of mailing would be forwarded to our class treasury. A few of the energetic members delivered the Christmas seals, and as a result our treasury was about seven dollars richer. Our next and last undertaking of the year was the Junior Prom which was our largest and most difficult task. However, through the efforts of our adviser and class members, our class put on a prom which was on a par with any of those of the past. CLASS OF 1937 President ............ Lucille Beers Secretary Henry Strom V. President......Mary Susan Hoyer Treasurer .................... Leona Rhodey Adviser: Miss Kidd Our Sophomore Class this year has been very active in extra curricular activities. The projects which we have undertaken are homecoming parade, in which the Freshman beat us by only a few members, candy sale at Freshman party, and a fish pond at the G. A. C. carnival. We were represented on the boys' basketball team, which won the class tournament, the debate team which entered the state tournament. True Blue Times Staff, and the various musical organizations. CLASS OF 1938 President ............. Roy Culver Secretary............ Margaret Clair V. President .... Marjorie Suennen Treasurer ................. Betty Fluent Adviser: Miss Hughes The Freshman Class this year were just as green as any of the others have been, but soon our greenness was “washed off in a barrel of soft water in back of Oscar’s. A little artificial coloring matter was artistically applied by upperclassmen at the Freshman party. After these exciting experiences we started right in letting people know we weren’t here just to be laughed at. We won the prize at the Homecoming “Hobo” parade and also conducted a hot dog booth at the Carnival. Several of our members have taken part in outside activities and we were well represented on the honor rolls.

Each week members of the True Blue Times Staff collect and write up the school news and send it to the Star ()bserver, where the news is allotted a certain space in the city paper. At various times during the year, examples of the original writing of students in high school are published in the True Blue Times section of the Observer. Miss Jerdee, who has had much experience in this line, is- the adviser for the staff. From time to time junior high news which is thought might be interesting to Times’ readers is published. Editor: Carl Honore Associate Editor: Marion Carroll Reporters: John Brackev, George Thompson, Sylvia Faber Typists: Dorothy Trudell, and Jeanne Williamson The Student Council consists of class and organization advisers and officers whose duties are to make and put into effect new ideas and rules to increase the interest of the student body. This council is made up of these representatives so as to give the student body a voice in the activities of the school. At the first meeting of the year the officers were elected:—John Brackev. president; Donovan Thompson, activity manager; Polly Melton, secretary. The council revised the budget ticket rules and planned the homecoming and carni- val, which proved a great success. In composing the True Blue for 1935 the staff has attempted to make the best possible use of the limited finances necessitating another miniature annual. Throughout the book the March of Progress in the various departments has been the central theme around which the information of each organization is woven. The activities and projects carried on by the school this year are es- pecially emphasized. We wish to extend our sincere thanks to our advisers for their willingness to sacrifice their time to help us compose our annual. Fifty-three enthusiastic students went out for debate this year, and on November 23 they attended the speech clinic at Chippewa Falls. On December 7 and 8 Marion Carroll, Elizabeth Tracy, and Frances Si- monson represented our school at the Extemporaneous League Tournament at New Richmond where Elizabeth tied for the first place on the all-star team. At the annual debate tournament at Chippewa Falls, March 1 and 2 our two teams won the third place. The teams were composed of La Verne Johnson, Helen Hickcox, Elizabeth Tracy, and Dale Gifford, negative; Norman Olson, Lucille Beers, Frances Simonson, and John Samson, affirmative. There were twenty schools represented and we are very proud of the record that was made by Hudson.
