SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On September 8, 1930, twenty-five chicks were brought to Bristol High School. It was a warm day, and we just about died from fright, because our mother, the in- cubator, had told us that the older chickens, in their fourth year of life, were very mean and would surely pick on us, For the first month we just ate and grew fat. Then we woke up to the fact that the older chickens all had foster mothers. So, not to be outdone by them, we elected Miss Clark as our foster mother, Evelyn Carter as chief helper to Miss Clark, William Pelz as assistant helper, and Esther Menges to pay our feed bills. Alice Iohnson was our social secretary. Then we decided our home wasnt pretty, so we had it redecorated in blue and white. ln late December we had a terrible sickness, the older chickens called it examination, and we lost two members. But all of us pulled through the second sickness with flying colors. On September 8, 1931, we started out with twenty-three strong and in our sec- ond year, not afraid of anything. This year, the older chickens let us alone, because there dropped at good old B. H. S. forty weak and dumb baby chickens, afraid of their own shadow, and easy prey for their elders. This time we had Mr. Welsh to protect us, Burton Keller as chief helper, Roland Mann as assistant, and Virginia Paul to pay our bills and be our social secretary. We have had only one sickness so far the same time as last year and are still going strong. ' -Ruth Brown. C199

ILINIOR CLASS HISTORY lt was in the year of '29 When we as Freshmen toed the line. We all were rather timid, although we showed little fear, For we chose Capt. Carver to lead us that year. One night in late October we were taken for a ride A few of us knew what it all was about though we dared not go and hide, We all were rather timid through-out the remaining year So in April they gave us a vacation to relieve us of our fear. We all felt very happy when we started in again For this time we were up another notch and on a different line. Phillips was our Captain for we lost the one before But things went just as smoothly for we were learning more and more. Before we hardly knew it the year was over again So we all went on a vacation until it was time to come back again. This time in the year of '31 We find our studies and work well done So we now embark on a higher sea The graduating class of '33. -Ivan Simpson. C185

O FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY ' On September 8, 1931, forty hopeful little fish started out to explore the great uncharted sea of Education in the vain hope of some day becoming big fish. They chose for their leader, Kenneth Snapp, and for his helpers to keep order among the Hsh, Isabel Iohnson and Almeda Halstead. The tutor and guide of this little school of fish was Mr. Huntzinger. Our little bank of Hsh traveled for a few weeks, when a group of sharks pounced upon us, but after we showed them we could take care of ourselves, they let us go on unmolested. About Christmas time we struck some shal- low water which was very hard to traverse but every one got through, so our party continued on its way for about three months, when we came to some more shallow waterg but as we again got through in safety, our position was advanced and we then became Sophomores. -lone Parker. 4205
