JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY June, July, August slowly slipped away and then on September 3, 1935 there came a renaissance in the history of our lives. We joined the Grand Army of the Big Sandy High School. After registering in the office of our new commander in chief, Mr. Gillespie, and getting acquainted with the orders and personalities of the other officers, we received our knapsacks and prepared for our long march across the wide expanse of learning. Little did we know what was ahead of us or how our fates would turn. Our large army was divided into four regiments. The highest group was known as Seniors ; no one knew why—unless they were more experienced in trying to bluff the officers in what they knew. It was this group what gave us our first lessen in army manners. On September 18, their foolishness was reflected from all of us, when we appeared, as for a Masquerade Ball in whigs and out- fits bowing and acting at their command to the amusement of all. It was the most dreadful and distressful day in our school history, but as we dared not show any resentment we took It like good sports and hoped for the best. Then followed the Juniors, patiently waiting for the time when they would be of the highest rank. The Sophomores were next--all genius- es or wise fools. We were of the lowest rank and were called Freshies perhaps because our ideas and answers seemed bright and foolish to those who had learned the correct an- swers elsewhere. There were twenty-nine of us Freshmen that started on the grand march. Under the able leadership of Colonel C. F. Boess and the staff composed of Lieutenant Mack Quinn and his Secretary Laura Tucker, we all worked hard and in the end we returned all the favors and enjoyments which had been given for our benefit by the upper classmen. Indeed! we were a grand expedition, united in spirit and determined to explore every nook and corner of Science, Economics, Mathematics and English. Many of us have continued throughout cur work with that same high spirit while others have had to take what to them seemed the easier paths of life and put their footprints in other roads. When our time expired for that year and we got leave for a three-month rest that we might be better able to resume the work in the coming fall, we were surprised to learn, upon looking over our accomplish- ments, that we had made many valuable contributions to Scholarship, Football, Basket-ball, Band, Orchestra, Debate, Declamation and many of the other school activities. During our Sophomore year of cur expedition we have very little to add. We were sup- posed to devote ourselves exclusively to mental and physical training while exploring the fields of knowledge and experience. There had been a change in the following officers: Colonel, Miss Davidson; Lieutenant, Walter Erikson; and Secretary, Arthur Svennungsen. We took an active part in the school activities and made the Athletic Banquet a success in spite of our low funds from the unsuccessful attempt at running a booth at the school Car- nival. We acquired a new member at the close of the year but we had a decrease in the regiment. When we went into our summer camp we had twenty-five members left. September 4, 1937 again summoned us back in the exploring expedition. By this time we had seen two years of service and were half way across the continent of Education, as far as our four years work was concerned. We started with twenty-five members throughout the following months. As Juniors we have more social obligations and requirements than either of the preceding years, but with the help of Colonel E. Hollister, which we sin- cerely appreciate, and with the help of the staff composed of Lieutenant Mildred Lloyd, and Secretary Pauline Kaiser we hope to come through this year carrying the flag Cj. suc- cess. We got off with a good start by clearing twenty-five dollars at the school Carnival held on October 23. Our first great undertaking was the Junior Play which came off on December 11. It was a success and put approximately fifty dollars in our treasury, tie intend to put on the Junior Prcm this spring and until then we can only sit back, and Quietly take orders from the officers until something comes up that will be for our side.
