Tom Mountain IN the fall of 1936, the freshmen entered the high school to take up the responsibilities of higher learning. To start the year right, the Freshmen built the bonfire for the annual Thanksgiving football game. Freshmen were active in both football and basketball and interclass activities. A pep assembly, featuring a tin-pan orchestra, was given for the stu- dent body at the beginning of the year. In February, the freshmen held a candy sale which proved a help to their treasury. Three students of the class took part in interclass debate. Anna Laura Barnes, a freshman, was chosen to be the school yell leader. Bernice Schaad, freshmen candidate for Carnival queen, came in second in the race. The class also sponsored a booth at the Carefree Carnival. A party was given by the class, March 19. All these activities being accomplished, a very active sophomore class is expected for 1937-38. Muriel Frost. 1 9

M rs. Bess Layman THE Sophomore class with James Roberts at their head have lost none of the pep with which they entered high school. They started the year off by giving a pep assembly and soon after that, a party. Kathleen McCoy was chosen candidate for the Carnival Queen. She also represented the class in debate with David Michener. The class was very well represented in football and basketball, and they won the inter-class basketball championship. In April the class gave the traditional class entertainment. If the Sophomore class follow their past lead, we may expect great things from them in the coming years.--Nadine Chaney. 18

POEM iTo the tune of Poe's The Ravennj Once upon a s-choolday dreary, While I pondered, weak and weary Over many a dull obtuse volume of my schoolbook Ioreg While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping As if someone gently rapping, rapping on the schoolroom floor, Only this and nothing more. Now I knew it was unruly, and I knew it was unduly- Oh, said I, Oh, Madam, truly, your forgiveness I implore But the truth is, I was napping, and so gently you were tapping: That I scarce was sure I heard you tapping on the schoolroom floor. Only this and nothing more. Rousing from my meditation, I heard her make the proclamation, We'd have our examination-a dozen pages-maybe more. And I dread the day arriving, for with all of my contriving I know nothing of the subject that I'm taking the test for. How I wish that I knew more! And with all my heavy cramming, when I start in at examming I'l1 find that I've forgotten all I ever learned beforeg When the time arrives for going, this is all I will be knowing- That red and blue make purple, and that two and two make four. This I know and nothing more. -Jean Burt g zo
