Ckduvnbhz CYty .flhgh ,School I'car 1?ook HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1915 E. the Class of 1915, awoke from the repose of a beauteous summer vacation to find that it was September and that we were about to start upon our career as freshmen. VVe entered with timidity and awe to the time of Steve's beautiful, new, squeaky shoes. VVe soon became immune to the jcers of the upperelassmen and learned not to get lost completely in the whir and buzz of school life. After we had received parccled gloom in the shape of report cards and had wallowed heavily through two long, dreary examinations, and had come to the end of the year, we were able to lift up our heads and say that we had produced able members of the county contest, chorus, and of the glee clubs. After a long and beautiful vacation, we entered upon our sophomore year wherein we had attained the highly respectable title of a class which always got its money's worth. in one way or another, for better or for worse. VVe looked about to find our class greatly diminished-some of the members had suddenly graduatedg others had left us. Under the guidance of Miss Hoham we now prepared to help turn out one of the greatest successes of the age, a musical, The Building of the Ship. and Mix Bob combined, the last an undeniable scream. We settled down to hard work in this year. and made minutes count, sometimes. VVe still held up the title of most Sophs in amusing ourselves and in making things buzz on our side of the room. The teachers had a continual pick ati' us. VVe produced some home talent in the oratorical try- outs and showed promise of an illustrious future. YVe entered upon the glad year as juniors. VVe found installed a tom-cat chorus. consisting of Crook, chief howlerg Ervin, assistant chief howlerg Ellis and Phig. chief aides to the timid eats all over the class, who were rather numerous. Amid the howls of these we found our number again diminished. VVe now came forth with a party at Xile's, where the great Columbian Pathos Quartet was organized. NV1- fol- lowed this with several more parties, the last at Mildred's. where Mr. Trimble gave us French and the quartet again became active. In this year we entered debating with zeal and were able to make a great show in the two .lunior-Senior debates. Frankie became our orator and Won first prize in the school and county contest. XVe produced active members of the glee clubs, semi-choruses, track and basketball this year. and gave tl1e seniors a high old send-off at the end of the year with a party and play. VVe chose for president, Earl Koesterg for the class colors, green and gold: the class flower. the yellow rose, and the motto, Nulla palma sine laboref' YVe now became high and mighty seniors. Oh, our halcyon days were here at last! YYe found several members gone and two added, Glenn and Harold. This year has been the most strenuous of our high school career. Yve have worked more steadily. We have begun to approach the end of the year. In it we have p1'oduced players for the coming play, members of the track and basketball teams and members of tl1e glee club. YVhen we have come to the parting of the ways, when the time for graduation has passed. let us never forget our kind teachers. our class, or dear old C. C. H. S.. whose colors of crimson and gold we shall never forget as long as we are able to lift our eyes to pennant or color. BURTON L. CONKLING. '15, l12l
