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.

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.

When we were shown what to do and what wa - expected of us. we got right down to work, electing Fay Upshaw president. We especially liked the idea of passing around to classes and standing in the halls talking until the la.-1 bell rang and we had a great deal of fun doing it. Then we got the idea we could play catch in the halls and that of course was stopped at once. At the close of the first semester, the ninth grade gave a mixer and of course, we were all there. When the Carnival came around, we chose Virginia Ames as representative and made her princess of the Carnival. At the end of the year most of us passed, hut we surely did feel the need of a vacation. When we came hack the next year we were as excited as ever, and eager to begin as the eighth graders of ’28. At the same time another big class came in from the sixth grade as seventh graders. They started out with a great deal of enthusiasm. electing Kenneth Sundin president. We elected Lawrence Patterson as president of the eighth grade. When we gave our party we invitetd the seventh and nineth grade?. They both reported » lot cf fun. When the Carnival came, the seventh graders elected Eleanor Sessions princess and the eighth graders Helen Hoover. Now the year is almost over, and both seventh end eighth grade?, hope to make their class the best in the history of C. H. S. Tommy: Is she a nice girl? Reginald: Moraless. Gesell: Who has done the most good in th? world. Henry Ford or Billy Sunday? Battles: That’s easy; Henry Ford. Gesell: How’s that? Battles: He has shaken the devil out of more people than Billy Sunday can ever hope to.
