Willis President’s Message How green” we felt during that first long week, at the beginning of our high school days. We encountered so many new faces and surroundings that we telt a wee bit frightened. Our fears soon vanished; it wasn’t long be fore we had adapted ourselves to high school life surprisingly well. We are now prepared for four more years ot work, study, and pleasure. Our class meetings have occurred every two weeks and we feel that the year has promoted interest, friendship, and a definite school spirit. We have done nothing spectacular, but we hope next year to enter into all activities and do our best. Next year w’e will have the honor of being the first freshman class in the new high school building. With this in view' we are looking forward to a very successful 1936-37. Nokmax Dopck, President of the Class of 1940. Motto—Ever ready. Flower—Carnation. Colors Blue and White. and Robert.manjand aid him in every way pos- . f ne. Helen Grimes feAime the ef- ji! !!!3HTlc4ciit secretary and carefully kept not£s of all meetings. The man that held the strings to the class purse was Jack Smith and he has more than 1 proven worthy to hold this position. This year the class was represented in the council by three aldermen. i Janies Spaniola and Bob Huber from | the eighth A’s and Gordon Cameron | from the eighth B’s. who for the first time in C. H. S. history have one of . their members represent them. ji Those attending the honor banquet for scholarship were: Gloria Jean Beebe. Shirley Bring. Jane Peters. Dorene Snoke. Robert Huber, and Martha May Snow. The class advisors ? are Mrs. Frances Wildern and Marie £ Taylor. Page ti —
