He has now gone Darwin one better in giving us a theory in which he claims that mans origin is not from the monkey but from a large beetle which has just been discovered in the southern part of the Sahara Desert. He has also written several books which are considered of great importance in the last renaissance of literary art. And today he is considered the most successful of the Class of '25, -that is, in his own estimation. Thus, we can see how the world has improved and prospered through the efforts of these great people, and no one can question or doubt the tremendous contributions which the Class of 1925 has made to civilization. Clarence Skjod, '25, HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1925 It was sometime in September 1920 that we first gathered at the door of the old frame building, with which we are all familiar as yet. As Fresh- men there we were shy and timid and did not dare to raise any unusual disturbances. Having come through our initiation and exams all right, most of us again assembled in the same school, the next September as Sophomores. Our greatest worries during the second year were in Miss Lundie's Geometry Class. It is notable however, that about dinner time every day we threw many apprehensive glances at the clock and often suffered pangs of hunger. At the beginning of our Junior year, which was a sober one, we were allowed to enroll in the fine new building for which we were very grateful. As was stated, our Junior year was very sober and quite, our only great attainment being the Junior-Senior banquet which was a brilliant success. Seniors! With the last year of High School ahead of us, we neverthe- less did not feel discouraged or downhearted. This year of 1924-25 has certainly been a very busy one. We have had a year of so many wonderful events that it is hard to recall or relate them. However the greatest was our class play Clarence the Junior-Senior banquet and finally gradua- tion. In completing this brief history, we think it well to give a cheer for our class of '25, Say! What? That's what! What's what? 1-9-2-5 Seniors. -Leslie Schwarten ie in xnianiuianiuliniuioin 1--1:11 14 1 nioioinioic 11 11,1-nz-niuioinxinieni

GIRLS' BASKETBALL The Girls' Basketball team was organized November 7, 1924. Miss Myrtle Linn consented to coach and Mae Johnson was chosen captain. The High School has not had a Girls' Team until this year and the Girls were very enthusiastic. They practised two times a week and there was a suflicient number of girls from the lower classes who turned out for practise making it possible to have a scrimmage every time. The many hours of hard practise showed favorable results. DECEMBER 18th.- Cambridge played Braham here. At first things looked rather unfavorable but before long the view changed. Coming back in the second half with more fight, we rolled in basket after basket and the game ended 18 to 9 in our favor. JANUARY 19th.- Braham played Ogilvie there. The girls were handicapped on account of being compelled to play modified Boys' rules after having practised regular Girls' rules. The game ended 26 to 6 in Ogilvie s favor. JANUARY 23rd.- Ogilvie played a return game here and our girls managed to hold them to a 10 to 9 score. FEBRUARY 6th.- Braham played Cambridge there but due to absence of some of our players we lost, 21 to 9. FEBRUARY 20th.- St. Francis played Braham here. The girls play- ed a fine game and outplayed St. Francis more than the score would in- dicate. Braham won 14 to 11. . r vi xx- 1411 xiii init 2 l1ari01cbk4b16lAL1ibibiok0Lnv1aiKiriisi5s101011xiui :oi 1014
