I I I WASCQNIAN '35 CLASS i-HSTCDRY Fjlmost a hundred tiger cubs entered the Wasco Union High School, September 21, 1931. After a Week of tutoring, the scrappy newcomers had their stripes W adjusted and their baby fur mussed before they pulled the male members of the class of '34 through the Water hole. 5 The Tigers of '35 soon got into pace and ran smoothly in the tracks of their predecessors. Promi- sing cats had their names placed in a frame in the front den. Some leaped just as easily into the game called Hdetention.n The long delayed Christmas party finally took place in April. ilt was the first event Of its kind held in the new gymnasium, so all of the members of the feline family attended. In their second year in the HTigers' Den,n the half grown cubs of '35 ruffled up the whiskers of the newest blessed events by drawing them through the water hole. Few noteworthy events occurred during the yearn Basketball was a favorite amusement of the male members of the band. The third year of the Tigers of '35 was an event- ful one. Football and public speaking were introduced, to the delight of both sexes. sOne small tigress, Jerry Bryson, made history by winning a meowing com- petition, commonly called an oratorical contest. The Tigers of '35 held a big pow-wow in den number five, and an old tradition was revived, After a fierce de- 'bate, Old Man Depression was formally buried. It was decided that the class would give a junior-senior banquet. The tigers had taken a mighty leap to land in the tracks of their-ancestors.. . The last year of the Tigers of '35 was the most interesting. A football championship Was won. Most memorable of all, however, was the fact that all the tigers, large and small, recognized the necessity of having an annual. Their wishes came true. This annual expresses their appreciation for the sym- pathetic aid of the faculty, and shows their sorrow at leaving the Wasco Union High School.
