On August 15, 1910, a jolly band of boys and girls entered Cloverdale High School. They were immediately initiated into the 0. V. L. Society by the upper classmen. After an enjoy¬ able reception given at McCray’s Dance Hall, we settled down to earnest study. Several of the class went in for athletics, and took active part in 0. V. L. Society functions. The Editor of the Spec¬ tator was one of our boys. One boy was a prominent player on the Basket Ball Team while one of the girls did very good playing on the Girls’ Team. After a long vacation we returned to school, only thirteen coming back, five having dropped out. During the first sem¬ ester of our Sophomore year our number dwindled down to nine. One of our girls was chosen Captain of the Basket Ball Team while another was chosen manager. Of the boys, one was chosen as Captain of the Boys’ Basket Ball Team. The present Manager of the Spectator is one of our bright Sophomore boys. Z. M. II., ’14. 27

Junior Class History NORMA HURLBERT, ’13 June 18, 1909, a class of twelve graduated from the eighth grade of Cloverdale Grammar School. Only seven out of the twelve who graduated entered High School. Others soon ent¬ ered which made our number, as Freshmen, thirteen. During our Freshmen year many of our number held offices in the 0. V. L. and some were on the Spectator staff. T »o of our boys took active part in athletics, one on the track and another on the basket ball team. After vacation when school started again, only ten came back and before the end of the term this number had decreased to five girls. Although our class is small, two of the five took part in the High School Commencement play. In the Junior year the five girls all came back again and we have proved ourselves “true blue,” as one of the girls is presi¬ dent of the 0. V. L. Society and the leading ladies of the play for this year’s Commencement program are irom the Junior class. We also have literary talent in our class. One of our number was elected Editor-In-Chief of the “Spectator” and three are on the staff. As our Junior year draws to a close, we look forward to a still brighter Senior year. 26

History of the Freshman Class On June 8, 1911, a class of fourteen graduated from Clover- dale Grammar School with great honors. Out of the fourteen graduates, eight of us, joined by two others from other schools, entered the Cloverdale Union High School on August 28, 1911. We were given a reception by the upper classmen, and at the first meeting of the 0. V. L. we were initiated into that society. After the Christmas vacation two more members became freshmen, making a freshman class of twelve,—three boys and nine girls. The Freshman class shines out brightly not only in class works but also in Athletics; two of our girls are on the Basket Ball team, one of our boys has been appointed Captain of the C. U. H. S. Baseball Team and another of our boys holds an honored place as a member of the “Spectator” staff. L. W., 15. 28
