THE ANOKAN : 1929 Class History Un the eighth day of September, l924, ninety-six individuals, complexion of a greenish hue, entered the realms of Anoka High School, to tediously climb the ladder of Achievement. lt did not take long to become acquainted with Superintendent Smith and the teachers, as well as with some of the higher classmen, in the latter case oft times to their regret. These Freshmen were polite and kind to everyone but they soon found that thir best friends were their own classmates. Their very first year this class furnished two athletes, Chuck Wells and Ellen Tigue. Leaders were chosen, Donald Jones, Chuck Wel's, Evelyn Sherman, and Douglas Reed. Under their leadership they struggled bravely on and scaled the first few rounds of the ladder before the year was up. Then one and all travelled to Crooked Lake where a grand picnic was held. September, 1925, found them flocking back to A. H. S. A few liked being Freshmen so well that they decided to remain behind ,another year, but the majority were now Sophomores. Dell Prager, Mildred Nelson, Charles Sollitt, and Florence Dieckhoff were chosen to lead the way. Two more, Dell Prager and George Giddings, entered the field of Basketball with Ellen Tigue and Chuck Wells. Others entered the fields of Oratory and Glee Club. Another year had flown by, and the class was a few rounds higher on the ladder of Achievement. lWany wandered from the straight and narrow path the third year, only forty- eight returning to A. H. S. Officers for this year were lwildred Nelson, Dorothy Dallman, George Giddings, and Mollie Barstow. The fact that these Juniors knew how to do deeds of renown and overcome the unforeseen was brought to the attention of- everyone. Th Lottery lVIan which they presented at the Green Theatre, was a decided success. Another event of note was the Banquet which they gave to the Seniors in farewell. Basketball boys this year were Chuck Wells, George Giddings, and Paul E. Peterson. The girls were Bernice Brown, Le'a Reeves, Mildred Nelson, and Henrietta Ruseling. Many rounds were scaled before this year was up and everyone retired to a brief period of rest, eagerly looking forward to their last year in A. H. S. But not before a merry picnic at Riverside Park.
