A, 1. .J poculu THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1926 This story opens in September of IQ22, when hir. Yvaldo, the world-renowned trainer of thoroughbred horses, and his corps of skilled assistants, received from Xliss Moore a large group of frisky young cults, gathered from the four corners ot East Aurora, to be taken in hand and trained for the great race of life. This group was without doubt evceptionally green and hopeless, but, on the other hand, Mr. VValdo and his helpers are exceptionally skillful. ln order to get a better under- standing of his methods and also to know something of the history of the Class of '20- we will trace the training career of this group of frisky young Dobbins: FRICSI-llVIliN During the early period in the freshman stage of development. this group presented a very discouraging aspectg none stood out from any of the others in any respect-all were green. It must have been very amusing and comical to our trainers and upper classmen to see us prancing and frisking about the halls, seeking the right stall and blissfully enjoying ourselves. After a short time, however, a few began to step to the front and command attention so that by the time our freshmen year was at its close, results began to show-results that develop rapidly and reap their rewards later. SOPHOMORES As sophomores, the Class of '26 began to take an active part in the life of the school. A few of the fellows ventured forth to gain fame as athletes and other school activities. Nlany of us became very carefree and came to school when it best suited us, or had a good time in classes, but the novelty of such tricks soon wore off and we began to realize how indelibly the results of our High School career would be marked up in history. T ,.,,. ,. ,,,., .,,., ,,,...,. Y.- ,..,. , .,.. :..i JUNIORS lt is when we became Juniors that the results of lllr. VValdo's organization began to show. Everyone is more or less carried away with loyalty and devotion to Old lfast Highg everyone does his bit to put his Alma Mater on top of the world. Our class play, The Charm School, was put on and over with remarkable success because of the wonderful manner in which every individual in the class worked for it. This same factor served to make our Prom so very successful. SENIORS Seniors-at last! VVe have attained this great height and after three years we have reached the last stage of our training career. VVe all work harder than ever for good grades now and look back over our other years sighing, half wishing we could go back to do the thing over again. Our devotion to the old school is greater than ever, and with pain we realize that our days here are fast nearing the end. With great gusto, the entire Senior class went at the class play. As a result. Daley is now numbered among the most successful plays ever produced by an lfast High group. Equally forceful is the manner in which every one has been pushing our annual. It cannot help being one of the best ever put out. We do not doubt that there are many other achievements about the school that will remain forever to tell of the presence of the Class of '26. When, on graduation day, Mr. Waldo and his training corps have completed their work, when the Class of '26 goes to the post for the great race, no matter what the odds may be, you may rest assured that the end of the race will find us fighting hard and with the old Red and Black flying high and triumphant over the winner-the Class of '26,--Harley Mullins.
