Olass History of '29 Just as our great grandparents immigrated to Humboldt County in '49 and overcome hardr shipeto settle themselves more comfortuhly and permanently, we--ae freshmen--enporieneod prec -tically the same feeling of pioueerinr flee Q, ull V el we stormed Arcata High as freshmen. We found the new life entirely different from that to which we were accustomed. However, it was not hard to learn to do the tashe that were asked of ue. The pioneer did not only work, he had his pleasures to add to the chronicled of his time so we--as underolaesmen-began to branch out into different activities as our greet grand- fathers did. Some went into sports, helping our teams to win championships which are very dear to Our hearts: others joined the dramatic club, while still others turned to music and played in the band and orohestree. Finding this new life very pleasing we continued each succeeding year to try to better our previous year'e record. Friendships were made which will be kept throughout our life-timeg friends that we have made here will never be forgotten as long as we Journey onward through life. When our grandparents had their hardships to overcome they all met together and worked out the easiest possible solution for the dif- ficulty. We--as olaeemates--did this, perhaps not in the same manner but at least we aocompe lished the same results. Altogether we have shared work and pleasure alike and have accomplished a great deal in learning to assume responsibility. Certainly the members of our class are not as famous oe our forefathers have become: but time, oppore tunlty, and fame may elect to honor some of our number before many years have passed.
