SOPHOMORE HISTORY In the year of 1919 part of the present class of C ’31 started on their long journey. After many tiials and hardships they reached the high school. Then in the fall of 1925 this promising class entered the seventh grade. The unlucky sponsor who was put in charge of this cla»3s was Miss Anderson. The usual mistakes were made at the beginning of the year, their greatest difficulty w’as to keep from running out to recess when the passing bell wa? sounded. At the opening of school in 1926 the happy little seventh grader . were made industrious little eighth graders and put under the supervision of Mrs. Williams. After a party or two. just to start the year off right and give the seventh graders a treat, they settled down to some real hard studying. Their freshman year certainly was started off with a “Bang.” The upper classmen treated them to a real old-fashioned initiation staged on the high fchool law'll. In their freshman year they w'ere represented in athletics, football and basketball. It is much better, however, to be an important sophomore than a green Freshie. And thus the class tcok one more step towards their goal. After having had a couple of parties, they decided it w’as time to be refreshing their minds for the dreaded semesters. Here we must leave them on their pleasant journey, but not without wishing them success on the rest of the way. Dictionary—Apologies to Webster Parachute—a double barreled shot gun. Hypocrite—a kid who comes to school with a smile on his face. Bacteria—back entrance to a cafeteria. Basketball floor—a sw’ell place for skinning knees, elbow, and opponents. Referee—a demon whose life is devoted to making wrong decisions. Center—a human telephone pole with larga feet and a gum chewing ability second to none. Pass—throwing the ball to a player of the opposing team.

We were well represented in all the activities on board—dramatic club, athletics and glee club. Our course through the summer months was very pleasant. In the fall we stopped at a port called Sophomore, where we acquired Captain Rebol. We were all very enthusiastic about our winter home. Having elected Nina Sackett president, we started the year with a picnic and a party to which we invited the Juniors. Again our crew represented us in everything they could get in to. A number of our group were in the Girls Insignia Club and the “C” Cluh . In the spring we returned to our ship, but this time wre were caught in a storm and some of our girls did not survive. Among these were Mabel Randall. Helen Moore. Gertrude Hall, and Maud Farnsworth. Now, instead of going into port, we set out for the high seas, stopping at the island of Juniors. We elected Billy Duke president and still retained Mr. Rebol as captain. While on this island Joe Sackett. Hollister Reser, and Franklin Overcast represented us in Basketball. They helped put over a very successful season with all C. H. S. behind them. In the girls’ basketball squad Esther and Lillian Burns and Margaret Lott, were our stars. We also had boys on the foot ball and track teams. Toward the close of our stay on the island the Dramatic club presented the play. “The Whole Town’s Talking.” Those of our company who were in the Dramatic club were Joe Sackett, Eleanor McCaffrey. Margaret Morrison. Isabel Griffin. Evelyn Westbrook, Elmer Gesell. and Billy Duke. Another event was the operetta put on by the Glee club; Evelyn Westbrook. Eleanor McCaffrey, Isabel Griffin, Ruth Maeirt and Joe Sackett were our representatives. Just before we set sail from the island an invasion of Seniors came down from the north and a very exciting flag fight took place on the deck of C. H. S. The battle ended a tie, because of a rain storm. As soon as spring appeared we put out for our last green port. Seniors. We are steaming right along and are looking forward to the time when that, last harbor will loom into view across the sea of life.—Mabel Bedell.

FRESHMAN HISTORY “Yea Freshmen.” An anxious group of seventh graders crowded into the high school for the first time in their lives. As we were the largest class in high school it caused more disturbance than ever. It seemed an endless task to get from room to room on time. Several of. us experienced for the first time, a tumble down stairs, while the students stood still and watched. We soon found it nece-sary to quiet down with Miss Anderson as our sponsor. The second semester we had a Valentine party under the auspices of Miss Andersen and Mrs. Zimmerman, which proved very successful. When we were called upon to entertain at assembly the students were quite surprised at our boy's quartet. So pleased were the people that they have been asked to sing several times since. When spring came we had a picnic at O’Neil’s to which the eighth graders were invited. We began our second year in junior high school right we elected Frank Fowler as our class pres, ident. Our girls’ basketball team tied with the “Fre-hies.” of course we were very proud of them. Many of us were present at the Junior High mixer. We had just as much fun as those who attended the Senior mixer. We have a fine beginning on our journey down the High School Road with an enrollment of fifty-four students. Our sponsor. Miss Lindell, is a fine sport. To help us along we elected Helen Jones as our class president. We are striving for the highest marks. We can be found in all of the clubs of the school. Many of us are in the Dramatic and Glee clubs. Three of our boys belong to the “C” Club, one. Herbert Mcore. is playing on the main basketball team and is captain for next year. A? yet we have attended only one party, when we were invited by the eighth graders to the Junior High Frolic. “The “C” Club Carnival was the greatest event of the year in our estimation. We are vrey proud of our delegate, Julia Nolan, who was elected Princess. Even though we have met many difficulties we are well on our way, and expect some day to plant our names at the foot of a tree on the Chinook High School lawn.
