JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY (X =»£ 0 President Vice President Secretary T reasurer Faculty Advisors Kenneth Leiby Edith Haas Pearl Thompson Gordon Merritt A. W. Grigg. Miss Tilda R. Natwick Class Motto: Conquering, and Still to Conquer’’ Class Flower: Yellow Rose Class Colors: Silver and Green In the year of 1920 there came to the N. I. a group of people to whom the name of Freshmen was given. During the first year of their sojourn at school they had a grand social event called a party. The class gathered in the armory, passing through groups of envious upperclass men who loitered about the entrance. The jealous ones outside tried every means available to frustrate the plans for the evening festivity, but every attempt was met with defeat. In the very beginning of its career this class proved to be one that could not be intimidated or discouraged. In their Sophomore year these class men undertook no less glorious a venture than a trip to the Shimmin lake. But now there was no one to hinder them in their effort because they had established for themselves the name of the most fearless, persistent, and spirited class in school. T he third year of their life here found them as ready to enter into the excitement of living as they had ever been. But they put away childish things and turned their attentions away from frivolous pleasures to the more soul-satisfying pleasure of achievement. Ath- letics, music, literature and every phase of school activity felt the impulse of new hope and added energy because they were present. Now, as Juniors, only three are left of that former Freshman class, but others as capable and brilliant have stepped in to fill the places of the absent ones. T hey have worked industriously and have seen the names of many of their number placed upon the records among the names of those that have won honor in the past. Some have made meritable records in science: some have shone brilliantly in dramatics: some have developed genius in music: some have won mention of honor in literature: some have achieved enviable records in athletics: and some there are among this class whose names stand humbly with no sign to show that they are superior in any line of endeavor, but to these the highest tribute of all is due because they are working against crushing odds just to be in school and enjoy the ad- vantages that it presents to them. No class has been more worthy than the class of '25. They are typical of the school and are capable of carrying on the ideal that has characterized the N. I. since its erection twenty-five years ago.
