Senior Class History U11 During the year 1917-1918 sixty anticipant Freshmen were added to the roll of N. H. H. S. That flrst day will never be forgotteng how we hurried from place to place amid the bustle and excitement looking for the class-rooms in which we belonged! .Shortly after school started we elected officers. Mr. Boone was assigned the duty of supervising the Freshman class. After numbers of social activities we firmly established the reputation of being the peppiest class that ever entered N. H. H. S. One of the most important functions of the Freshman year was a reception to the mid-year class which had just entered. As the close of the year drew nigh, we began to realize that this year was to be a year long cherished in our memories. The following fall fifty-five of our group became Sophomores. It was amusing and gratifying to see the Freshmen going through the same blundering trials we had once experienced. Earnestly striving to hold our acquired reputation, we put our whole heart and soul into the school activities purposing to make this year a success and a credit to our class. We were represented in every form of athletics and school activities: the football team, the girls' and boys' basket-ball teams, and the debate team including members from our ranks. Miss Plulmley, our High School Principal, became our class supervisor. Our social events during this year were not as many in number as those of the Freshman year, but were worthy of praise for the varied forms of amusement showed that the class was full of talented students. Now the Juniors and Seniors began to look up to us and many sought the advice of this brilliant Sophomore Class. As we became Juniors, high school life began to look more serious and we all settled down to study still striving for the standard we had set out to attain. In the United War Work drive our class as usual came out in the lead. No other class equalled ours in loyalty and generosity. Again many of the class participat- ed in athletics and all forms of school life: the debate team still included two from our group, the girls' basket'-ball team, five: the boys' basket-ball team, fourg the foot- ball team, fiveg and hhe baseball team, three. Elveryone of these put up a real fight for the honor of N. H. H. S. Miss Kasischke was chosen as our class sponsor and under hcr competent leadership we participated in many clever social activities during the year. Prob- ably the one, that will be most remembered, is the elegant banquet which the Juniors gave the Seniors who were graduating in June. It was a delightful success, due to the suggestions and talents of our sponsor and the Junior class. Now comes our Senior year, a year which we, a class of fifty, have made glorious by our accomplishments. We, as a class, possess those outstanding qualities of Seniors: dignity, loyalty, and good sportsmanship, which make us tlhe class to he looked up to and honored. Our Senior organization has two soldiers who before the war were not members of our class but who sacrificed their education to defend America. We are proud to be classmates of these boys. We are represented equally well in athletics.. The majority of the .members of the boys' and girls' basket-ball teams, the football team, and the base-ball team, Page Twenty Four
