THE POST HISTORY OF THE JUNIOR CLASS In the year 1919 a bewildered crowd, which were thirty in number, entered the A. T. II. S. They wandered around, searching the assembly hall, but in vain they searched. One brave youth, it must have been our noble “Doc” Thrasher, ventured a little farther and found the assembly hall at last. As they filed down the narrow aisle of the North side, they little knew what was going to happen to them. Our ignorance was vast. When Mr. Sutton spoke of “Conflicts” in our programs, some of us did not even know what he was talking about. After we were dismissed, we found our witty Percy, who is not to be conquered in the field of wisdom, shuffling through the pages of tin dictionary. After some days we became accustomed to our new surroundings and settled down to work. P y the end of tin first year the Freshmen had distinguished themselves in many ways. The girls had taken an interest in the campfire and (!lee Club', while Elby. Percy, Kenneth, Arthur and Clark represented our class in athletics. Arthur Maxey entered in the oratorical contest for the boys declamation and won at the county contest. The year 1920 found us with twenty-three members. This year our paths were darkened by the death of one of our members, Carl Harshbarger. We did our part in oratorical contest, being represented again by Arthur Maxey. We kept up our standards in athletics also. Our third year opened more brightly than the others. Twenty Juniors came to take their places next to the Seniors. We are a very resourceful class we think. We have two members of the High School Quartette, three members of the Orchestra, and several members that enter in oratorical work. Almost all the boys represent our class in athletics. We have a very good record so far, and we hope to even more for our school in next year's work before we leave tin dear old orange and black. Alta Marie Quick, 1923.
