S! IEE History of the Class of '31 In the year 1932 the last tribe of Indians in America was still existing. In this tribe were twenty-six members. These Indians loved and were loved by the white people. Each year this tribe elected four honorary white members to its tribe. This year I was one of the four fortunate people. What a gay affair it was when we held our monthly meetings. A war dance! A snake dance! Colorful decorations! and lo!-we were intox- icated with Indian life. Another gathering-but this time we were to have a speaker. Each one of the honorary members was required to relate something pertaining to his own life, at one of the meetings. On a wonderful moonlit night, seated about a campfire, I decided I would tell them about my four years in high school. This was my story: 'Twas early in the morning, one beautiful September day in 1927, when fifty-nine small children entered Clay High School as Freshmen. We climbed the stairway to the Freshman study room, number 205. When we were finally gathered in 205, a set of puzzles was given us to solve-a schedule of courses and classes-and we were to write our solu- tions on two white cards. Miss Fassett, our superintendent, explained the puzzles carefully. We wrinkled our foreheads earnestly, and when we had found the correct solutions, were permitted to depart to find our class- rooms. The cruel Sophomores, who were the only other students in the school besides the Freshmen, informed us, each time we looked into their classrooms, that we were Freshmen, but we resumed our search until we found rooms that were well supplied with minds as great and countenances as 'green' and fresh as ours. We soon learned the value of D's, Cs, B's and A's-letters that meant so little to us in algebra, but were of the utmost importance ,when they ap- peared on certain white cards every six weeks. .jf We organized our class rather late that year because were strang- ers at the first of the year. We chose as our advisor, Mr. Ralph Engel. This class participated in basketball, glee club, dramatic club, base- ball and track. The following year, 1928, forty-five of last year's Freshmen class en- tered the portals of Clay High as Sophomores. We organized and chose as our advisor, Mr. Harold Potter. Active parts were taken by the Sophomores in literary societies, or- chestra, glee cl,ub, student council, basketball, baseball and track. A delightful party was enjoyed in the school gymnasium on Novem- ber 23. We all had a good time. The year 1929 brought back twenty-eight juniors. We now assumed our duties as upper classmen. We chose as our class adviser, Mrs. Packer. She surely served her purpose. ,ti'iiii1L1i1i ,-iz'i'ii.iiziaa I 7 wuuly-viyhl HM 'Q-
