SENIOR CLASS HISTORY N the year 1922 a hardy band of Spanish explorers, the Class of '26, started to find the gold of knowledge in the new world of Boise high v school. For their banner they chose the colors of cherry-red and silver- grey. They elected Lyle Heer to be their general and Robert Bertholf to be his assistant. To record the heroic deeds of the band they chose Jean Graham to make the reports which would be sent to the court of Spain. Since Dorothy Foran was a trustworthy woman, she was appointed to take charge of all the gold that was captured. After establishing themselves in the new world they sent Elizabeth Fairchild and James Farmer to represent them in the government of the colony, the Student Council. Near the close of that glorius year they de- cided to count their numbers so they conducted a roundup. As the explorers became accustomed to the land they were invading they were instilled with a sense of democracy which led them to make a law that they should elect a new leader every year. So in the second year of their explorations James Farmer was chosen general, Richard Farns- worth for his assistant, Wendell Black to be the recorder of events and Ivan Tucker to take charge of the captured gold. New delegates. Lela Ensign amd George Bodle were sent to the council to represent their flourishing co ony. During these two years of conquest they had become more and more entangled in the affairs of the people about them who were also seeking for the gold of knowledge. These people wishing to cooperate elected George Bodle of the Class of '26 to be leader of all the settlements in the new world in 1924-25. Lela Ensign was sent to the settlers' assembly from the land at large. Our native guides for this year were Miss Hyatt, Miss Silverthorne, Mr. Underwood and Mr. Blase. The Class of '26 chose as their general for this year, De Witt Higgsg for his assistant James Straight was elected, with Richard Farnsworth as secretary and Peter Cohn as treasurer. Jean Raw- lins and Lyle Heer were sent as representatives to the assembly. In the fourth year another member of the Class of '26, Wendell Black, was chosen to lead the affairs of all the peoples in the land of Boise high school. Williemae Roberts, Edwin Springer and Jean Graham were sent to the settlers' assembly from the land at large. The native guides were Miss Hyatt, Mr. Hutchinson, and Mrs. Blase. George Bodle was elected for the general of the Spanish explorers with Dean Newhouse as his assistant. Jeanette Freeman was appointed to record the events to be sent to Spain and Ray Archibald was chosen to keep their gold. James Straight and Harold Wayland were sent to the settlers' council as representatives. The native guides were Miss Mayer, Miss McGrath and Mr. Loughrey. Many disputes had arisen among the different tribes during these four years over the distribution of the gold and large meetings were called to- gether in order to talk over the best means of settlement. The Class: of '26 was defended by George Bodle, Wendell Black, Dean Newhouse, and Laurance Hollingshead. In December, 1925, many explorers who had found all the knowledge they could in the land of Boise high school had gone to other fields in search -of knowledge came back for a reunion and to visit the land where they had once lived. A large assembly was held for them in the Boise high school by the Class of '26 who were soon to follow their fore- fathers and leave the Boise high school to travel in other lands still looking for that same gold of knowledge. The members of the class of '26 will never regret that they passed through the glorious land of B. H. S. They shall search further golden knowledge and ever as they go they will have a boosting word for their dear old B. H. S. -14-
