S. a group of green but growing Freshmen. As soon as they had their program completed, they settled down and elected their officers as follows: President, Welby Frantz; Vice President, Velma Foote; Secretary-Treasurer, Pearle Gipson; and Class Advisor, Mr. Scheer. They withstood the much talked of “Initiation,” sponsored by the Sophs. Entertaining next, they gave a very enjoyable party to the rest of the High School in the “dungeon” of the school building. CHAPTER II The next year they were very much at home when they started to school, and consequently settled down to business immediately. Their officers for the ’27 and ’28 period were: President, Velma Foote; Vice President, Louise Johnson; Secretary-Treasurer, Julia Irish; and Class Advisor. Mr. Coe. It was then their turn to entertain the Freshmen, and they sure did it in grand style. The initiation was started at the Fair Grounds, but it started raining, so they had to come back to the school house. Everyone enjoyed this party to the fullest extent (except the Freshies). About Christmas time they, with the rest of the School, were entertained at the Little Theater by the Freshmen. CHAPTER III This famous class, in the fall of 1928 came into High School looking almost dignified, hut I say almost because they were only Juniors, not Seniors. Their guiding lights for this year were: President, Julia Irish; Vice President. Pearle Gipson; Secretary-Treasurer, Russel Malson; and Class Advisors, Miss Houston and Miss P ayless. They attended the various school functions during the year, including a splendid Hallowe’en party given by the Freshmen at the school. It was again their turn to entertain, this time the Junio:' Senior Banquet, which you will find described on another page. W. M. F., ’30. 18 .

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY PART I We, the Freshman class of 1927, breezed into High School (a great place so we had been told), like a brisk autumn wind, upsetting everybody and everything. Soon we were subdued by a stern and competent Faculty, and duly initiated on the most rainy day in the almanac. Our class was organized and officers were elected: Carrel Miller, President; Cleo Sullivan, Vice President; and Alta Parsons, Secretary-Treasurer; Superintendent Sheer, Class Advisor. As our finances registered zero, we were forced to devise a wav of procuring some of the coin of the realm, so numerous sandwich sales were held during the year. We gave a theater party, and fearing that the worthy upper classmen would be idle we served all day suckers (but they didn’t even last all evening). Our class was very fortunate, losing only a few of our members throughout the vear. PART II We thought we would have fun with the new teachers, but to our sad fate, we found that playing with new teachers is like playing with fire (especially in English). Knowing all the ropes (we think we do) we reorganized our class and elected officers: Sharon Hoose, President; Ina Brown. Vice President; Cleo Sullivan, Secretary-Treasurer; and Mr. Butterfield, Class Advisor. We initiated the Freshmen (very gently, for our motto is “Safety First”). Each student was asked to do a stunt before the assembly. This caused much merriment. Cakes and cider were served afterwards. We hope to furnish many contestants for the various extra curricular events. Thus we have progressed so far, so good. M. M., ’31.
