Ili. HD. 18. lllill. S. 'S l l JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY On the first of September, 1926, twenty-seven of us began our High School career. During the first year Elsie Markwalder, Walter Wieland and Howard Ryder dropped out. 'As Freshmen, Miss Chappell was our class advisor. ' When we came back in the fall as Sophomores there were only eighteen of us left. George Harwager, Bernard McCormick, Wade Smith, Lester Rudin, Margaret McMackin and Evelyn Ryder having moved away or quit school. The year 1928-29 began High School for us the third time. We found that fifteen of the class members had returned to resume their Work. After a few days we elected our class officers and Miss Norman was ap- pointed our class advisor. Early in the season Frances Whitaker moved away, depriving our class of'a student of literary and musical talents. However, Dot Litherland entered in October from Stewardson High School and helped make up for the loss. Each year since entering High School we have been represented in almost every activity. Members of our class have been prominent in bas- ketball, baseball, track, tennis and musical and literary events. We hope that next year, as Seniors, we may accomplish those things which have been our aims but which we have not been able to accomplish thus far. 9 ff-acvflfi

item mum We xo SOPHOMORE HISTORY On the morning of September 5, 1927, twenty-two freshmen were as- signed their respective seats in the freshmen section of the study hall. Although this same number was diminished by the loss of Donald Mc- Vicker, Louis Hurliman, Ethel Hasselbring and Lavina Hausch before the close of the year, all twenty-two became acquainted with High School tactics in the initiation held the month after school had begun. Initiation proved not to be as terrible as had been predicted. The next fall saw the remaining eighteen with one new member, Henry Aeschliman, added to the ranks. We were no longer green freshiesng we bequeathed that quality to the class of '32, The loss of Vera Ray- mond about the end of the first semester left us with eighteen again. In literary, music, and athletic events the class of '31 contributed to the school several very active and outstanding pupils. A student from our class represented the school in the dramatic declamation and another in humorous declamation. The Girls' Glee Club had several members of the class of '31 in it, as did also the Boys' Glee Club. We organized a Latin Club of which the Freshmen became members at the end of the first semester. A trophy case was purchased with the proceeds from the three one-act plays given by the members of the Latin Club. Here's to the class of '31! May they always prosper! ml 'fe'-irzjvflfif' W 9
