GRACE CONDIT. Prrtidtnl Junior Class History WITH twenty-eight anxious and eager heads, the Junior Class stepped into the role of responsibility and pride September 3, 1929. which today’s seniors vacated May 17, 1929. The Juniors have endeavored to reach the high step in the ladder of scholarship, and they have been encouraged and inspired by their respected and able class advisor and principal, Mr. J. B. Wiikerson. Marking the custom of the preceding Juniors, they have put on the play, “Climbing Roses,” the cast consisting of talented pupils who took their parts well. As their contribution to the program for the annual high school carnival, they gave a one-act play entitled “The T resting Place.” To recall their golden rule days, many will have their rings. They have greatly aided in making the “Timber Line” an enjoyable part of their local newspaper. It is with pride that they point out the fact that one of their members is the assistant editor. Six of the boys in the class have taken active parts in football and have won their letters. Two have been on the basketball team. They have gone through trials, difficult studies, and scoldings together, but these have served not as a gulf to separate them, but as a link to bind them and their teachers the more closely together in friendship. —Inez Allman. Spring Now the misty clouds have lifted, And the sun is shining bright. Where the •winter snows were drifted, Flowers are peeping to the light. Everywhere the birds are singing; Everywhere the bees are humming. Thoughts of springtime they are bringing; Many happy days are coming. —Dwight Strong.

Sophomore Class History SEPTEMBER 3, 1928, seventy - eight Ereshmen entered high. We were the largest class that had ever enrolled at V. H. S. We elected the following officers at our first meeting: Ben Spencer, president; Kathryn Malm-sten, vice-president; La Vern Adams, secretary-treasurer: Jack Christiansen, sergeant-at-arms; Miss Hazel Malmsten, class advisor. We were initiated by the Sophomore Class, in regular form, and then left to do as we pleased. This year we retaliated by giving the Freshmen a rousing welcome to V. II. S. After making them miserable for two days, we gave them a party at the high school gym. There were not so many students to choose our class officers from this year— only fifty-eight—but we managed to fill the offices as follows: President, George Laird; vice-president, Marvel Graven; secretary-treasurer, Ben Spencer; sergeant-at-arms, Ralph George; class advisor, Miss Vera Grail. The Sophomore Class is there with the goods when it comes to the matter of athletics. Marvel Graven, Oscar Sorlee, Ralph George and Jack Christiansen turned out for football and upheld our reputation on the gridiron. Ralph George is an excellent man on the basketball team and he has done his part in helping to win our many victories. We, the Sophomore Class, are all rooters for old V. I I. S. and we are looking forward to bigger and better times as Juniors of ’31. GEORGE LAIRD. Prnident “When first we entered high school, We were green and bard to bluff. Now we’re dignified and polished; We’re the class that’s up to snuff.” —Christine Rainey DECEMBER 20—CHRISTMAS VACATION Pott Twenty
