'i f . .. .Q-'sP'f F S If e ' f-f CLASS HISTORY N THE first day of school, September, 1916, the Class of '28 entered Clarks Summit's institution of learning to gain for them- selves an educational training. We braved the struggles of the grammar school and in our seventh year were transferred to the new school building to be taught by some IIGW teachers, including Miss VVilliams, Miss NVertz, and Mr. Henninger. In our Freshman year we organized our class and elected officers to carry on our administrative work. During this year we showed our love of social events by having one class party, the great event being held at the home of Verna Pearce. As sports we were not to be left unrepresented, for Celeste E. Men- nig, Dorothy Hand, and Russell Briggs were awarded High School let- ters for their splendid work in track. At the end of this term we held a picnic in which we were joined by the Seventh Grade and Sophomores. At the beginning of the next year we were delighted to help tor- ment the Green Freshies, as we were now Sophomores. But alas, we had lost many classmates including George Birdsall, Joseph Fahey, VVilliam James, Brisbane Kelly, Ferris Lutz, Lena Antone, Gladys Birdsall, Valeda Miller, Helen Snyder, and Alice NVatersg but we had also gained some new members. 'Among them were Virginia J ohnson and Philip Brodhead. VVe soon realized that there were many troubles to try us, yet when everything looked black before us we worked on, never thinking of shirking. Soon after the beginning of school a class meeting was held. Rus- sell Briggs was eleeted president, Dorothy Hand, vice-president 3 Marion Jordon, secretary, and Earl Hoeklander, treasurer. Our good sports- manship was shown by the way in which Lesse Sickler played football, and our cheer leaders, Celeste E. Mennig and Verna Pearce, cheered the players. WYe had a few class parties, but these were not the leading social functions of the time. As exams drew nigh the t'Sophs were very industrious and, after many nights of hard study, were able to pass the tests with flying colors. After a happy vacation, we, the Class of '28, returned to school to take up tl1e duties of Juniors. On arriving we noticed something to be radically wrong with the class. It was the loss of four of our valued members. They were Frances Hoot, Frances Bellersheim, Rose Stru- bel, and Russell Bender. Soon after this Esther Hubbard and Earl Hocklander left our class to take positions in business houses. These losses were greatly lamented by us but were made up by the entrance into our class of Gladys Northup and Ruth Griggs.
