FRESHMAN CLASS THE BEST IN S. E. H. S. There’s a class we’re mighty proud of, In the halls of S. E. H. S. When we’ve told you all about them We’ll give you each one a guess. They’re loyal to their high school And to their classmates, too; And they’re full of pep and vigor For the tasks they have to do. Of course they’re full of mischief, And always planning fun. But you’ll find them ever working Till their school room task is done. You’ll find them loyal boosters You know just where they stand, Always willing to do their best Never “can’t” but always “can”. Purple and cream are their colors They have chosen to defend And they stand for the steady courage They to every good cause lend. For their president they’ve chosen A fine young lad named “Bill” And when he’s away or busy They have Glenn Birkby still. To collect and spend their money Genevieve was their choice, And Arthur was chosen yell-leader Because of his mighty voice. Why of course, you’d guess the Freshmen, For there’s no other H. S. Clan Who for loyalty and courage Could surpass the Freshie Band. And when they’ve grown to Seniors Nor so many years to wait, In the future watch for honors From the “Class of Twenty-eight”.

Adiss Newcomb To a High School a “peppy” Sophomore Class is one essential. The Class of ’27 has undoubtedly filled all requirements and more. As Freshmen we entered High School in ’23 with Miss Janike as our Sponsor. In that first year we were never accused of lacking “pep” and as Sophomores we are at times accused of possessing a bit too much. When it comes to furnishing talent for programs, contests or in working for holidays, our class is hard to excel. In our first two years we have established this record for ourselves. Possessing our present amount of “pep” and being in such high spirits, we believe we can break our own record in the two years to come. 19 2 5 Page Eighteen □
