 Huuswirth Rhofles Iirailcn Cline Berry Senior History In the fall of the year nineteen hundred and twenty-five we entered the Albany Junior High Schools. To a casual observer we might have given the impression of being very green freshmen, but after some of the “new- ness” had worn off, and we had become accustomed to the schedule, we settled down to be a very ambitious group of students. During our first year of high school life we tried to lay a good foundation for the three years to follow. In our Sophomore year we became interested in dramatics. Bob Stevens, a member of the class, took the leading role in “Cappy Ricks,” the annual Dramatic Club play. Evelyn Eastburn, another member of the class at that time, also assumed an important part in the same play. The Sophomore girls distinguished themselves by winning the interclass volley- ball championship from the Senior and Junior teams by a score of 75 to 23, and from the Freshman by a score of 53 to 28. We completed our third year with similar success. During that year the school officials began to realize that our class was very talented. Gordon Gilkey and Howard Gibbs proved their ability in cartooning and drawing. The class was well represented in the high school band, in orchestra, and in athletics. When the call came for debaters, the class easily supplied the required number. We honored the Senior class that year by giving one of our members, Alison Senders, for the high school debate team. That a number of our class members were qualified in public speaking and oratory was also discovered. It was once said, “Poets are made not born,” but however the case may be, the Senior class found that it could boast of a number of original poets. Frank Birnie, Vallis Crooks, and Robert Burnett each wrote a book of poems. Then comes the last and most important year. Now, as Seniors, we are putting our shoulders to the wheel and pushing every minute to make 16
