The Junior Class has some of the best baseball and basketball players in the High School. As Class Advisor for the Junior Class, we could choose no one better than Mrs. Butler. A party was held at Green's Lake by the Juniors. We all had a very good time. The Junior class, as other Junior classes have done, is going to give a play entitled, ‘‘Polly at Sunsine Cottage.'' We selected as our motto, “Work Conquers Everything.” Our colors are Green and White, and our flower is the Violet. The Juniors have the honor of being the first class to secure rings in the Junior year. 14

THE SOPHOMORE CLASS George Alward Walter Andrews Mildred Beals Helen Cheeseman Bernice Cline Mary Halfpenny Lessiter Hammond Clayton Hoyt Isabel King Ralph Lawson Alice Lawson Mary Lowrie Donald McGregor Raymond Miller Ronald Porritt Donald Riddle Kenneth Rockwell Ethylene Stephens George Swain Bertha Zish ON SEPTEMBER 3, 1923, we entered High School, a merry bunch, though quite green to high school ways, for we were Freshmen. Not much happened that year, for we spent most of our time adjusting ourselves to high school ways. Miss Peters was our class sponsor. At the beginning of this year we started in having a good time and with Miss Herriff as our sponsor we continued having them. We entertained the freshmen at the Alward home, where we showed them what '‘initiation” was. They, feeling that they should repay us, delightfully entertained us at Kenneth Stevens. But parties aren't “ALL as you might suppose, for many of us have indulged in hard work, for which we feel quite repaid, as all of us passed the semester examinations. Now we are settling down to harder work and hope it will be as successful as other work we have taken up. Our class officers are: President. Isabel King; Vice-President, Ethelyne Stephens; Treasurer, Raymond Miller; and Secretary. Alice Lawson. 15
