:c :c C.C.H.S. THE BISON PAGEZO :6 :6 were Freshmen. It was not hard for them to find their classes. They were improving rapidly. Many successful parties and rallies were given by the Sophomore class. They proved that they were a live organization by the splendid support they gave the Athletic Association during the Mixer. The following officers were elected during the Sophomore year: Mr. Wilson, sponsor; Miss Balcom, co-sponsor; Olan Wilson, president; Ralph Edger, vice-president; Jessie Coolidge, secretary-treasurer. III Still again, in nineteen hundred and twenty-four, these students en- tered C. C. H. S. They were bound to make the year 1924-5 a banner year. The Junior class plays were given before the largest crowd that ever attended a class play given by a Central City High School class. The JunioraSenior banquet, said to have been the most beautiful banquet given by any class during the last five years, was given April 7. This class was well represented in Athletics. David Mathieson, a J11ni01',was elected Treasurer of the AthleticrAssociation. Nine represen- tatives of this class, Bus Wilson, Don Solt, Roy Messersmith, Bernard Marquis, Ted Moore, Mark Parker, Asa Mohr, John Riddlemoser and Don Kyes, were awarded football letters; Four members, Bus Wilson, Bernard Marquis, Asa Mohr and John Riddlemoser, won their basketball letters. Junior class officers were: Mr. Wilson, sponsor; Miss Dunder, co- sponsor; Mark Parker, president; David Mathieson, Vice-president; Leon- ard Kyes, secretary-treasurer. l IV The same group returned to High School in nineteen hundred and twenty-flve. Now they were Seniors. It seemed but a few short years since they were Freshmen. How fast the time has flown! It is but a Short time now until graduation, and then, again, these students will be Freshmen. Yes, Freshmen in Lifeis school. They know not what to do, they know not where to go. Let us hope that each and every Senior will resolVe to take the best path in life.
