Sergeant-at-A rms 'VVay back in the dim fall of '21 w'hen the flapper hadn't yet begn11 to flap and the jellies weren't yet thoroughly,conjealed, a crowd of eager youngsters came jostling up the steps of that seat of wisdom, Beaumont High School. The boys were still in kniekerbockcrs and the girls had unabbreviated curls and ab- breviated hose tsinee then they have learned to abbreviate bothb. VVe were ig- norant then, but eager to learn, and were proud of the fact that the Freshman Class-of '21 was the biggest one to ever darken tor brighten! the doors of B. H. S. Our false pride was soon taken out of us by the Seniors of '21, Yes, we suffered the fate of all'Freslnnen. We wereihuffeted, bruised, kidded and made generally miserable. W'hen picking out our'courses, we blithely chose Latin and Algebra, thinking they would be no harder than our ward school subjects-but, oh! how bitter our disillusicnment! We finally got through, however, thanks to the patience and encouragement of our teachers. In our Sophomfue year, we had our first big thrill-helping the Juniors in the annual class fight with the Seniors. The Juniors burnt the Senior class flag. and we hcl sed them. Gee how we hated Seniors! PM 7 The accomplishments of our Junior year were many and manifold, but one, in our sight, stands out above the rest. We gave the Seniors the best banquet, that we, personally, believe they, or any other Senior Class sat down to. You can see that our attitude toward Seniors had changed, instead of 'tbrick-bat: ' ting them we were banqueting tl'lt'lll! Everything went smoothly until our Senior year-and then we met with our first and bitterest disappointment. Ever since our Fish year, we had been planning what we would do to the lower elassmen when we reached Senior- hood. But alas, there were no more 'tfish for us to bait as we had been baited. The Freshmen were enrolled in the Junior Highs and there one of our fondest dreams crumbled away. There were no Freshmen to haze, and what was the use of being a Senior if you could not haze anyone? However, we weren't to be outdone. We turned our attention to leaving a real record for acquiring honors for B. ll. S. In the year 1924-1925, Beaumont High School set a 11ew reeerd in athletics, Winning State championship in basketball, tri-district championship in football, and district champienship in track. She also distinguished herself in academic subjects, having won first place in the Latin meet in Houston. And in addition our music representatives at Belton, and clothing centestants at Austin were the envy of many schools in the State. All this happened the year that the class of 1925 were high and mighty Seniors. First in athletics, first in scholarship and first in the ranks of High School Graduates!
