Freshmen lsrechmren ROM all four directions of our local universe came the students that memorial day of September 2, 1930, to make up the Freshman class, and what a class! Nothing lacking to make it one of the best of all the Freshman classes of the school’s history. Events have trod right on the heels of other events, this year, and the Freshman class has not allowed it to be shaded in any way by its older and more experienced groups. Soon after the first day of school, the Freshmen assembled to organize the class, and elect officers. Those chosen were: Dale Crown, president; Opal Blankenship, vice president; Don- na Richards, secretary; and Thelma Hunter, treasurer. One fourth of students that were on the honor roll were from the Freshman class. Lo! We have a queen in our midst. Early in the fall, C. H. S. was ealled upon to pick a queen from all the girls in the high school for the celebration of the city’s new Hydro- Electric plant. After two or three days of keen competition this honor went to Thelma Hunter, a member of the Freshman class. Much interest and enthusiasm has been shown by the class a in sports. The Freshman girls made a good turn-out in Misoe Woedin Girls’ Athletics. Also Everett Young is the proud bearer of a letter in basketball. Other activities in which the class has participated are, Orchestra, Glee Club, and Dramatics. They also made a good showing in the Annual drive, with Donna Richards as their candidate, who won second place. Due credit for the year’s success should be given to the Class Advisers, Classes Page Twenty-two

Sophomores Sophomores Nietert, basketball and track; Billy Robinson, football and basketball; and Phillip Raymond, football and basketball. Miss Montfort and Mr. Glanville were the faithful advisers of the elass. The Sophomores were elected to a number of offices of prominence for next year. Dayton Nietert will be the new A. S. B. vice-president, Jean Davies is the new Girls’ League president, Jean De Champlain, secretary and Lois Watson, treas- urer of the same organization. Wednesday, May 20, marked the date of another Sophomore activity, the class pienie, which was held at Deep Lake. Such sports as canoeing baseball, swimming, pitching horseshoes, were enjoyed during the day by everyone present. Chairmen of committees in charge were: Frances Lemm, food; and Royal Keily, transportation. This is the first time in several years that the Sophomore class has held a pienie and its great success marks future dates for many more. Three Sophomores received perfect grade ecards during the entire year; Jeanette Ray, Alberta Stewart, and Jimmy Bam- ford. As a class, the Sophomores had a large percentage of their number on the honor roll. Due, both to a class spirit that it is fruitless to attempt Ray Watson Miss Montfort to extinguish, and also to the work of a competent advisory group, the Sophomore class has been and to all outward appearances, will continue to be one of the outstanding classes of the school.

Freshmen [reshmen Miss Wing and Miss Wooden. Without their helpful guidance the Freshman Class undoubtedly would have had some perplex- ing roads to travel. Several programs were given before the Freshman class, the best features of which were combined into an interesting assembly given before the whole school. The numbers inelud- ed in the program were: “Give the Audience a Chance,” a skit; “Diamonds and Detectives,” a skit; “Alice Blue Gown,” a song by Glenna Brunton; a “Cane Dance,” by Lucille Lay and Margaret Hagstrom; and a song and dance number, “When It- ish Eyes Are Smiling,” dance by Rosie Howland and Marjorie Barrett’ and song by chorus of Freshman girls. In stead of having a class party as did the other groups, the Freshmen, who had paid their dues, attended a matinee theatre party at the Fox Theatre, May 15. The picture shown was Trader Horn. Candy and cake were served in the cafeteria before the picture show. Several Freshman received all As on their report cards i Aue Crown consistently throughout the year. Those receiving such grades Binkenckio were: Helen Conrad, Edel Christenson, Frances Thomas, Jane Miss Wing Thompson, Darwin Cunningham, and Clifford Wasson. This year the Freshman class showed great interest and enthusiasm in all school activities, and a “Peppy” Frosh, make up a very promising group for their future years in C. H. S. Page Twenty-three
