Third Years! Ulbirh year Qlllass Qctihities The Third Year class has its share of partici- pants in the school activities. In basket ball We have been ably represented by Eva Minear and Vada Helsley. In the boys' team by Ed Jones, who was a very strong player. ' On the diamond We claim James Hitt at second base, Ray Pierson, short stop, Ed Jones, center field and Ray Bedke substitute. Out of the five boys who are in our class, four are athletes and good ones too. In the debating team a third year student was one of the alternates. . One fourth of the members of the Glee Club .be- long to this class, and the melodies may be heard in the hall at almost any time of the day. These are by name Vada Helsley, Eva Minear and Ellen Larsen. We might ask what would the society plays have been Without Vada Helsley and Lulu Rum- baugh in The Elopment of Ellen, and Ellen Larsen in As Good as Gold! In fact the question may Well be asked- How could the A. S. N. S. possibly exist without the members of the third year class!

Glass of '11 On the sixth day of September, '05 punctually at 9:00 a. m. there assembled in what is now Room J the class of '11, VVe were forty-four in number ranging in age from twelve to eighteen. We look- ed and acted much the same as any other eighth- grade class only we were accompanied by that feeling of awe which every one has when first en- tering a Normal school. We were fortunate enough to have Miss Hansen for a teacher. She was the best, the cleverest and most patient woman on earth. She left us on Thanksgiving and her place was taken by Miss Mark. She remained with us the rest of the year. It is a mystery how we preps ever lived thru those nine long months without being trampled in- to an early grave by the seniors. We were noth- ing in their eyes and the only reason they per- mitted us to exist at all was, they were ashamed to let the world know they had even taken notice of such inferior beings. We preps had a worse fate than any class before us and no more such treatment will ever be administered, for the preps are now on a footing with all. .The majority of the class finished the eighth grade in the spring of '06 and Went joyously home for vacation with wonderful dreams of the fresh- men year. The next September a few of the old members came back and a great many new ones to help bear the burden of a freshmen class. There were thirty nine of us, from every part of the state. Of course We were supposed to represent every thing in the verdant shades, but We organized early in October, electing Don Sndweeks, president. A lavender and white banner was purchased, several yells learned and a motto adopted. We were now recog- nized as fit to live and reside on the same lad- der of fame with the seniors, though of course a rung or two lower. September '07 saw only a few of the originally large class back again at the Normal. Our Presi- dent did not return, but was down on the Twin Falls tract dreaming of the happy home that was soon to be his. Mr. Snodgrass was elected Presi- dent and has remained leader of our band since. This year passed in the ordinary manner and we parted in June, wondering how many of our class mates we should ever see again. The next September, '08, only .eleven of the for- ty-four beginners remained, five boys and six girls. They solemnly took up the work of the third year and with a patient look on their faces are hoping some day to graduate. 4
