They were: Muriel Dierks, Kathryne Weber, Mary Hood, Anna Kukuchka, Erna Nobbe, Tommy Doyle, and Wilmer Nobbe. At the end of the second week the Seniors gave them an initia- tion in the gymnasium and forced them to wear costumes and to sweep the Main street. The Freshmen look part in the play called “Ted’s Family,” which was given at the time of the “Ladies’ Bazaar.” The Freshmen entertained the Rozet Basketball boys and the High School boys and girls after the Rustler-Mustang game. Now they are entering their Sophomore year with only five, having lost Erna and Wilmer Nobbe. Page 31 7 7 7 V V V V 7 7

MY HOPE FOR AMERICA Out of a sea of darkness. Out of a well of despair. Comes a hope for future America. A hope that’s lingering there. Millions have fought for America. Millions for it have died. It’s every man’s free country. It’s every man’s joy and pride. But oh. my hope for America Is for youth, the youth of today. Who trudges with steps unfaltering Down life’s uncertain highway. I wish that youth could keep marching Toward the goal forevermore. Without the pain or sorrow. Of that dreadful menace called ‘’War. No one knows what the next turn will disclose. Nor what the next bend will contain. Whether success and happiness. Or maybe sorrow and pain. Should youth toil unceasing. . To be killed by a brother’s hand. Or should they be trained and cultured. For rulers of our land? Let them have a hand in the government. Let them show their wisdom and truth. Let them abolish war forever As it is the desire of modern youth. I hope that in America tomorrow We will have a pure democracy; Poor and rich will rank alike. We’ll not harbor aristocracy. Don't let youth become discouraged And think they have tried in vain. Because with our success and joy. We msut bear our share of pain. When youth has tried once and failed: Teach them to try again. And keep on trying forevermore Until their goal they gain. What America will be in the future No one can tell or foresee. But I hope with all my heart That it will be a democracy. With its codes and laws so righteous And extinct wars destroying sorrow. America will lead the world In the Centuries of tomorrow. By CARRIE LEE JESTER—’40
