Dur- ing our four years in high school, some pupils have been lost, and some have been gainedg our enrollment now stands at 17. At the gruesome ,Freshman initiation, the lofty upperclaosmen vainly tried to humble us, but their efforts were useless, for we emerged more determined than ever to make our high school days suc- cessful ones. Q And our determination was realized as a fact during our four years. In our first year, we entered whole-heartedly into declamatory, athletics, and music. Our ability to nburn the mid- night oiln was proved by Bill Kraemer,who ranked first in the state in the Science Academic Test in 1935. During our Sophomore year,our athletic boys were awarded foot- ball and basketball letters. lusic and declamatory also attracted many of our number this year. The girls were not to be outdone by the boys in athletic ability, so in our Junior year, our girls basketball team came through with flying colors to defeat the Senior girls, and vin the 1939 girls basketball chmfipionship. - Our Junior Play, nLook Uho's Heren, e hilarious comedy, was definitely enjoyed by the audience. Four girls won declamatory letters in their 'Junior year for their outstanding mwork in this field. The speedy members of the typing team von the right at Cttumwn to compete in the state typ- ing conttst. The members of the typing team cane back from Dos Moines after the state contest to ueet with the rest of their dass- mates and the Seniors at Hotel Turner in Fairfield for their annual
