COMET iiiiiiMiiiiiMiiiiiniiniiHiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimimiiiimimimiiiiiiiMiiiiimiMiiMiiiiiiiNiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiMimiiimiimimimiiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimiiHiimtiiiiiii Freshman History On September seventh, 1927, twenty-two ignorant freshmen started out on their long way to acquire higher knowledge. First came our initiation. After being terrified for three long weeks by the plot- tings of the sophomores, the great day finally arrived. We had just reached the top of the stairs when some noble sophomores ushered us into the history room and there we were held—captives. Oh, the horror of It all! “What will happen to us next?” was the thought that surged through every innocent freshie’s mind. But we were not held in suspense long, for one by one we were blind- folded and led into the assembly. There we received our first lesson, which we shad never forget, in the art of painting of our faces; then came various other agonies such as we had never experienced before. After this, the sophomores were gracious enough to let us remove the first coat of paint and the remainder of the evening was spent very enjoyably in dancing. But this was not the end of all our torments, for we were informed that the fol- lowing Tuesday we would have the pleasure of white-washing the C. H. S. sign on the butte. This, however, turned out to be more fun for the freshies, even if it did require a great deal of energy. Just before Christmas we were told by the cruel sophs that there was no Santa Claus. We attracted much attention as we marched into the assembly, weeping', after receiving the information. The remainder of the year we were prepared to hear almost anything, but the new- ness of things gradually wore off, and we were regarded as normal high school stu- dents. So we began journeying through high school. —WINIFRED YANDELL. Just Between Us Freshmen My dear, HASn’t the last YEAR nearly DRIVen you WILD?
