History of the Junior Class lVe, the juniors, have been more or less active in our rise from Freshmen to juniors of Carthage High School. , After we graduated from the grade school, naturally we were Freshmen. VVe thought we were I'l ' and I guess we were. VVe were the most active Freshman class that ever existed. VVe put it all over those who followed us and we were far superior to the present Sophomores when they were Fresh- men. tAnd as yet we don't know what to expect of the new F reshmenj. To start things we had an election of officers. Grace Mills was the presi- dent of our Freshman class. We had a weenie roast and shortly afterwards we had a movie at the Strand Theatre. The picture was Flowing Gold. XVC didn't make any flowing gold but we did make forty dollars which we gave towards the baby-grand piano fund. The last event in our Freshman year was a Valentine Dance which. much to our hitter disappointment. was more or less of a failure. lrlowever. we man- aged to hreak even. A Our Sophomore year was more of a detriment than anything else. The only thing we did was to elect officers. Austin Martin headed the list. NVe were like a roof over a house in comparison with the Freshmen. Now, as juniors of C. l'l, S. we are as an aerial over a house in comparison with the Freshmen. Next year we'll be the sky. if we pass. Now we are JUNIORS. XVe have not been active yet hut the year isn't over. VVe are planning a junior Prom. The officers of our junior class are: President. Doris Millerg vice president. llarold Brainard, and secretary and treasurer, Gage Barnes. We cannot be active without the co-operation of the other classes. so we won't knock Freshmen and Sophomores, you're all right. we hope we are and we know the Seniors always are. --l'lanor.n VAN SLYKE.

Freshman Class History Last june the owners of the lleet, Carthage High School. selected a new crew to sail the good ship l93l. About two mouths were used to decide definitely which members would be most capable to Ftll the positions in Septem- ber. September seventh was the date for this ship to be launched. It started out on a beautiful day with just enough wind to make it go well the tirst week. After that it was very hard navigating as the crew was new and came to this ship from Great Bend. Deferiet. I-lerrings, Copenhagen, Natural Bridge and Carthage. Of course it was hard for these sailors, although their captain, jerry Thorpe, had a good first mate. Marshall Lynch, and the second mate, Janice Buckley, was a capable person for this position. This ship had the very rough Sea of Quarterlies to contend with ten weeks after its start. Some of the class proved poor sailors and had to serve on an extra watch to raise the degree of eliliciency on the ship. Now it is Fine weather and the battle that our Heet is engaged in. for the supremacy of the sea. with other fleets, have begun and are almost weekly events. The good ship dl has assisted ably in these battles in which the fleet has participated and has come out victoriously. Although the youngest crew sails this ship it has contributed many members to its credit. Among them are: jerry Thorpe, football and baseball: Lincoln Haller, football and base- ballg Harold Grosse, ioothallg Grace Strickland and Virginia Anderson. chanty leaders. In June we will put to port for two months to put things in ship shape so that we may be ready for a more glorious and profitable year on the high seas of education for 1927-28. -VCA -l
