1022 (Cla a lUistnry of thr Jltutun (Ilaaa ©f 1022 One morning in September, 1919, over fifty Freshmen found seats in the assembly hall of Casey High. They were not unlike the average class of Freshmen. The majority, thirty-eight, to be exact, had graduated from the Casey eighth grade the preceding term. A few of this number were missing, but the others joined with those who came from the country and elsewhere, to form a strong, united whole. This was the first class which ever had the privelege of conducting their grade commencement exercises in the new building, and to them belongs the honor of being the second Freshmen class which had ever existed as a class in the new Casey Township High School. As a result they received the proper benefits to be derived from attending a school with so congenial surroundings, and so well-equipped for their advantage. Throughout the year the Freshmen showed that even if they were green, as all Freshmen classes are supposed to be, they were quite alive. The next year (1920-21) there was still approximately the same number of classmen. However, a few of the former students had dropped out, and three, Roxie Fuson, Bertha Hutson, and Owen Kibler, had been added to the Sophomore roll. The class still retained its old attributes which had ever before distinguished it. It stood high in the ranks of scholarship. Indeed, two of the three times, a Sophomore headed the Honor Roll, which was printed quarterly in the local paper. This showed that though the class gave brilliant, momentary glow, it shone with a steady, never-varying flame, and that after all is the flame worth while. Society life was not neglected this year either, and the class enjoyed many royal good times. These festivities were helped along by the sympathetic aid of the class advisors, Miss Ruth Grant and Mr. C. A. Morey. Now the Junior Class of 1922 comes into view. It is the smallest class in the school, numbering only about thirty. Three members have been added; Eliza Partlow, Ethel Leamon, and Agnes Welch. Agnes, however, soon left for her South Dakota home. The Juniors entered school this year with one important purpose in view. This was to obtain the necessary money for the Junior-Senior banquet. As this annual banquet is the most important social event of the year, the present Juniors mean to entertain the Seniors as royally as possible. And so far, their enterprises, the carnival, the stand, and the benefit night at the Lyric theatre, have all been very successful. It is hoped that every year will prove equally profitable. So here’s to the pink and the blue. Here’s to the Junior Class! May their Senior life prove as interesting and end as happily as their present life gives promise of doing! Page Thirty
