■ ANN HOOTON Just to see her is to love her, and we every one agree, That she belongs to Alton, and not to you or me. ESTHER McGEE She’s little—but all good things come in small package. DELIA SHERWOOD W’hen it comes to arguing she’s right there, She has heaps of brains ’neath that lovely hair.

JULIA DONDONO Our little Julia, demure and sweet, Always seems to look so neat. Quiet and cheerful, seldom at play, Busy at studies the live long day. MYRTLE MAST With hair of gold, and eyes of blue, She charms all, but to one she’s true A jolly girl, and full of fun, Fame to her will surely come. MAUDE PIERSON My heart like the moon is ever changing, And like the moon, there is always a man in it.

CLASS HISTORY ’23 Our Freshman Class which entered the Coquille High School in the year 1919 was the largest class enrolled up to date. Our “pep” and diligent work has carried us through a successful high school career. The Senior Class, since entering high school, has been very prominent in all school activities. Cyril McCurdy, Ralph Harry, Robert Trigg and Albert Oerding have been star football and basketball players. Maude Pierson, Myrtle Mast and Charlotte Bell have played in the Girls’ basket ball team, winning much praise for their school. In 1922 our girls’ basketball team won the cup, given by Miss O’Farrell, to the victorious inter-class girls’ team. During the year of 1921 our class contributed three members to the debating team who were: Delia Sherwood, Errol Sloan and Lawrence Moon. They demonstrated their ability by winning the Coos County Championship. Their efforts were rewarded by a trip to Eugene to the State Debating Contest. The same students were on the debating team the following year. In Declamatory and Oratory, Teresa Clinton and Errol Sloan have been a credit to our class. Last year Errol won the Oratory cup which eliminated him from entering the contest this year. Teresa entered as our representative this year. We know she put forth her best efforts to win and we appreciate the time and trouble she has spent in preparation. This year, the Student Body Government has been conducted successfully by the members of the Senior Class. Errol Sloan has been President; Delia Sherwood, Vice President; Pauline Lorenz, Secretary; Robert Trigg, Treasurer; and Ralph Harry, Business Manager. In previous years Myrtle Mast and Delia Sherwood have served as Vice Presidents. The Senior Class owes a debt of gratitude to the faculty for their earnest efforts in preparing us for the work which we will enter after leaving High School. We also want to extend our thanks to the other classes for the cooperative work in all student affairs. Ann Hooton
