HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF I906. IKE the historyiof any great enterprise, that of the class of '06 has been varied. We have had our defeats and vic- tories, our gains and losses and ups and downs the same as every class that has preceeded us. He would have been a wondrous prophet indeed who Could have foretold the High School life of the class of '06 at their entrance into High School. To High School we came, big, little, fat, thin, dark, light, to use a John- sonian style-a most heterogeneous collection of the human species. But among these were the future orators, declaimers and debators of the school, the foot ball heroes of the succeeding years, and those who were to make their names remembered on the track. ' As Freshmen, we were soon organized and ready for work. Our football team distinguished itself by requiring two games to down it and put it out of the cup race. We were banquetted by the Seniors and at the same time incidentally hazed by those not at the reception. When the oratorical work came we succeeded in getting three speakers o-n the finals, one of whom obtained second place, and spoke in the league contest. Later, in the indoor track meet, our athletes won second place. - The Sophomore year opened prosperously for us. Some of the leading players on the first foot ball team were from our sclass and in the class games, our team obtained second place. In speaking for the medals we were represen-ted by two in Dec- lamations, and two in Extemporaneous speaking, one of the latter re- ceiving second place. Again in track work we not only equalled but excelled the other classes. After winning first place in the indoor track meet, many of our athletes went to the State meet, where they made good showings. During this year the class selected their pins, being the numerals 'o6 interwoven by la ribbon, and enameled in the class colors of gold and white. The beginning of our junior year brought a large number of the class back. Thus far no sorrow had marred the happiness of our school life. But soon after the opening of the school year, the death of Grace Clark brough sorrow to the hearts of her classmates and many friends in the school. She had been a good scholar, pleasant classmate, and her death was deeply mourned by all who had known her. . This year our speakers again did well in the contests. Two in Orations, two in Extemporaneous speaking, and two in Declamations was our representation, out of which we secured second in Extem- poraneous and Olratory. The High School debating team which opposed Waukesha at that place, was composed of juniors, and although defeated, was by no means disgraced. The class made an innovation in the school social life by enter- taining the Faculty and themselves at a Hard Times party. Old clothes only were in demand, and the teachers, as well as scholars, came dressed up for a good time, which it was universally conceded they had. The sumptuous banquet was served with paper plates and U
