RAVELINGS .7-Xa P Eenart CLASS HISTORY 1 We relate this hisory in order to allow others to enjoy with us a brief review of our high school career. On Sept. 1, 1913, the bells of the Central Building rang long and loudly and her por- tals opened wide for fifty-eight seekers of wisdom were, for the first' time turning their ,steps to the Assembly room. The greater number of them came from the eighth grade, yet a goodly number came from the country districts, and still a few came from other halls of instruction. And then it dawned upon us that we were gre-an Freshmen or rather it was impressed upon us in the form of jeers and torments by the upper classmen who were veritable experts in this line. Happily, Mr. Worthman came to our rescue in helping us get organized. We choseafter due consideration and sol- emnity our class officials, and class colors which were scarlet and gray. We soon, however, recovered from our state of timid- ity and were left unmolested, and so we con- cluded this trying year. Some of our num- ber succeeded having their heads stored with sufficient knowledge, consequently dropped out seventeen of our number who were: Mary Bender, Ruth Brokaw, Hazel Butler, Rosa Johnson, Florence Leichen- steiger, Zelda Melchi, Donald Patterson, Ralph Oakley, Reuben Robinson, Aloysius Schmidt, Freeman Schnepp, Marie Smith, Naomi VanCamp, John Luttman, Edna John- son and David Wells. F'our girls had fallen victims to Cup-id's dart. 2 And thus with practically all the new- ness and greenness worn off, we entered up- on our Sophomore year. We added to our number John Clark, Roy Goldner, Raymond Keller and Martha Tucker. Our oflicials were elected, white rose was adopted as our 13 class flower, and Mr. Robert J. Mallll chosen as class 'guardian. In this eventful year it chanced that the Freshies had a class party as all Freshmen do, and the Sophomore boys made themselves famous by succeed- ing the said Freshies in disposing of a quan- ity of wholesome eats. Due reparation was made, however, but we were thoroughly re- buked and were threatened to have revenge visit us some time in the future. But we hope this affair has been forgiven and for- gotten and has become a thing of the past. Well represented was our class in athletics, claiming a number of the winners in the various track meets and possessing some eminent basket' ball players. And thus destined to be an unusual class we closed the term with the following people vacating: Dallas Brown, Earl Cushman, Harold Cush- man, Floyd Hunter, Catherine Carey, Ray- mond Keller, Orval Lenhart and Albert Ges- singer. 3 Early in September our class again :ip- peared on deck with an added member, Leone Peterson and an uncommon supply of enthusiasm at its command. My how great it seemed to be Juniors! Our officers were elected, and it seemed to be the popu- lar wish of the class that our colors be changed to gold and white. The white rose was adopted as our class flower. Mr. R. C. Penrose was elected class supervisor. And then it happened that a grave crisis faced us financially, for it became our bur- den duty to entertain the Seniors. We met this emergency by which provided a and in establishing a name for us. Proving entertainers we fnrnisn- presenting the Hoodoo success both financially ourselves as royal ed a splendid reception for the Seniors. XVe were also fortunate in expending every cent of our money in the treasury. By the time we completed 'this year several more dron- ed out or moved away, who were: Alina
