SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY When the highly-cultured class of Freshmen came into view in the fall of 1930, the upper classmen (although they would not admit it) noticed they had very little difficulty in getting into the right places. After several days they assembled for class meeting and elected Lyle Paulsen as president, Weldon Frantz, vice-president, Kenyon Bevan, secretary anil treasurer, and Miss Hieronymus, class adviser. During the whole year the faculty was astonished by the mental ability shown by this unusual group. When this illustrious class again came together in the fall of ’31, they elected Weldon Frantz, president, Jack Freeston, vice-president, Kenyon Bevan, secretary and treasurer and Mr. Price, class adviser, who was highly honored to be an adviser of such a class. They kept up the impression they had made as Freshmen and have thus far been a noble success. One last word, facts. Let me tell you this isn’t bragging, merely simple H. A., ’34. Page 13

Second Row—King, Beverly, Brandt, Lancaster, Deavers, Loercher, Irish. Third Row—Rogers, Coddington, Carlock, Curtis, Adams. JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1929, the Freshies of the class of “1933” wandered into the Assembly befuddled and bewildered, not comprehending the meaning of the huge portals of old A. C. H. S. However, they soon settled down and began studiously preparing themselves for the honor of being the best class that ever graduated (or ever will graduate, for that matter) from Atlanta High School. The Freshmen really outdid themselves that year; they ranked first in scholastic standing and gave a party that was a huge success. The next year when we came back to school, having lost a few classmates and gaining some new ones, we knew a little more what it was all about. Looking over the Freshmen, we sympathized with them knowingly at their green and unaccustomed manner of giggling and other childish habits that Freshmen always have. During this year we settled down and began to enjoy high school life and act more like high school people should. Now that we are Juniors, we feel that we are really getting up in the world, as we have a right to be, for our class has been a grand success, and all the following classes should model after this grand collection of students. We gave a banquet this year which even the proud and haughty Seniors confessed was better than they ever expected could be staged. Next year we will be Seniors, capable of upholding the fine record of A. C. H. S. Page 12 P. C., ’33.

FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY We, the Class of ’35, industrious and highly talented, entered High School already distinguished and highly renowned by our illustrious and unusual work in Junior High. We assembled for our first meeting and under the direction of Mr. Rush elected the following officers: Albert Hieronymus, president; Naomi McCombs, vice-president; Emily Jean Crihfield, secretary, and Bob Judy, treasurer. In due time we settled down to the usual routine and accomplished much. Striving for higher honors than even our lordly Seniors are entitled to, we feel sure of reaching our goal. A. H., ’32. Page 14
