14 THE (iREEN AND WHITE ATHLETICS What is the cause for the slump in athletics at Colt High? Is it due to lack of material? It is not! Colt has a wealth of material, the equal of any school its size in the state. Is it lack of school co-operation ? Absolutely No! Our cheering squad during the football season proves that. We had an average of fifty students as a squad at every game. On the trips we even “showed up the squads of other schools. Is it lack of coaching? Again the answer is NO! The reason was a lack of confidence among members of the teams. They all went on the trips with the idea that thev were going to he defeated. Such spirit will never win a game. If the other team carried one or two big fellows, they quit, not of fear, but lack of confidence in themselves and their school, and coach. Come on, fellows, snap into it! Wake up 1 Are we going to do the same in base ball? Let's hope not. Get the old pep. The school is with you 100 per cent. Come on. and put Colt where it belongs—on top of the standing.

CLASS HISTORY One beautiful day in September of nineteen hundred and twenty-two, the portals of the famous C. M. H. S. opened to welcome a new group of its students. It was, of course, the most notable group of “freshies” that ever entered Colt. In our freshman year we were gazed upon as “wonders” even though our class activities were few. At one time there were rumors that we were to have a sleigh-ride. Since the snow was scarce, the ride was not successful. Another year rolled around and we had joined the ranks of the Sophomores. We proved our value as a class to the school at the time of the food sale of the “Green and White, and the Senior Class. The girls were asked to serve as waitresses and were very proud of such an honor. The “Green and White on the other hand, was highly honored to have us. We again were soon to ascend in rank and the following year we made our “formal bow into the Colt High Society Circles.” Our first organization came about in the latter part of September, and we organized with the following officers: President—James Gallagher. Vice President—Louis Stabila. Secretary—Marguerite Kennedy. Treasurer—Betty Kinder. Class Adviser—Miss Sisson. Executive Committee—George Moren, Iola Janson and Russell Southwick. One beautiful night in April, shortly after the Easter vacation, the most wonderful event of all, occured. It was the annual Junior “Prom.” The auditorium was decorated with the colors of both classes. An enioyable time was had by all and we now thought of vacation and the coming year as Seniors. At last the coveted time had come and we were now the “aristocracy” of the school. Our officers for the last high school days were: President—Louis Stabila. Vice President—Russell Southwick. Secretary—'Mary Gharton. Treasurer—Bettv Kinder. Class Adviser—Mr. Lane. Executive Committee — Thomas Giorgio. Marguerite and Mary Tobin, and Edward Blackman. We held our first dance October 24 and this was a great success. The next time we appeared before the pubile was at the dramatization of “Mary. Mary Quite Contrary,” by Professor Crosby. This form of program appealed to the older people particularly. It is at this time we wish to thank all those who made our food sale a success. Our last class function came in the form of a play. The cast is to be congratulated on its splendid work and efforts to make this “go over big.” Not so long ago we were honored by the Juniors with the annual “Prom” which was, bv the way, a most wonderful thing indeed. The decorations and favors were a splendid surprise and were duly appreciated by the Seniors. As we draw to the close of our days we wish to take this opportunity to thank the facultv which so zealously helped us during our four years of school life. Lastly, we thank the classes of the C. M. H. S. and particularly the Junior class and wish them the greatest of success in all their undertakings for the coming years. MARGUERITE E. KENNEDY. Class Historian. '26.
