Senior Class History In 1936, a group of 45 of the most bewildered freshmen seen in many a day, entered the new High School. We soon made ourselves at home and in a few days we were adjusting ourselves to the atmosphere of C. B. H. S. In a few weeks an extremely effective initiation made us settle down to work. After recovering sufficiently we gave the upper classmen a return party. We soon organized our class and elected class officers who proved fully capable of the task entrusted to them. Then presto we were sophomores. Although we were not upper class-men, we were permitted to assist in the persecution of the poor frosh. Most of this year we spent dreaming about the time to come when we would be upper classmen and no longer subject to the scorn and jests of our elders. Then our dreams came true! Juniors! Upper classmen! We had a busy time that year. We produced the play The Red Spider, the proceeds of which went toward the financing of our prom. Both our play and the prom were declared outstanding successes. Suddenly the big moment of our lives arrived. We were Seniors. This year we produced two plays; the Senior Class presenting Black Gold and the Public Speaking Class called The Mummy and the Mumps. Now as we are preparing this annual we are awaiting the Graduation Ceremonies which will close the history of the Class of 1940. c t 17 1

I'ropliecv of Class of ’40 Nya! Nya! Nya! said th© little fox, occasionally dodging a bullet from the gun of a furious fox hunter, Jack Peoples. As our fox friend merrily flitted alona, he was observing some facts which seemed of interest to the readers of the 1940 “Wolf. From his perch on the hollow log, he had a good view of a group of tough full fledged lumber jacks, including Roddy Sellars, and with Roy Teterud as gang pusher. Just yonder is the old cook shack and through the open door—DEAR ME!—is that the former Joyce Irgens flippin flapjacks with such grace and efficiency??? Ah! Look who comes! It's that handsome forest ranger, God's gift to women —Jack Fee. (Confidentially, there's a big feud over his affections between Lucille Johnston, the famous pianist and Eleanor Price, that million dollar baby from the five and ten cent store. ) Nya! Nya! Nya! you can't catch a flea, remarked the little red fox, and strolled lazily down to the creek for a little liquid refreshment, and the customary swim. The creek is now the private property of Marjorie Morley, who is the senior partner in The Kitten Scrubbers, Inc. (Jim Ness, junior partner). The sign Private—no trespassing doesn't seem to register on the minds of those two famous fishermen, Freddie Christenot and Norris Victel—oh. well, after all, the world owes them a living— Tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la. Whee! Excitement! I wonder what that tall, dark and handsome specimen flitting around over yonder can be up to. DON'T tell me Mahlon Stewart is capturing a poor little harmless butterfly. Mahlon, with his horn-rimmed spectacles and knee pants, says he just adores the dear little things (referring to butterflies, of course). His extreme grace reminds us of that internationally known toe ana bubble dancer, Frank Hatch. Incidentally, CBHS was very proud in 1941 to present Mr. Franklin D. Hatch for his debut to Broadway. Frankie simply insists .ipon wearing ruffles around his neck while doing his act. Jimmy Johnston, Frank's financial manager, seems to be doing very nicely these days Even with his family of 13, he can afford a mansion with a swimming pool and all the other trimmings somewhere in Beverly Hills. Pretty soft, aye, Jimmy? What do you say. Red? So help me, cried the little fox, Is that music I heard, or do my ears deceive me? Oh. the concert in the park. Alfy has purchased an acre of the woods which he has devoted to his Oomph-A-Cade Chorus (All brunettes, except Joyce Brandvold and Ruth Luedtke). He is known to have created some very original routines. (Oh! Swing all ye faithful!) The sly old fox was far too wise to enter the city limits and become a rug under the feet of some alert hunter; but he did read the advertisements along the road. Get rich quick. Ruth Henry will pay 15 cents per hundred wads for gum which can easily be obtained from desk bottoms and window sills. Gumchew, Inc. Attention Horses.
