::.', .rv 4 L.5k,U Elly? mirhiian Class Chrorricle HE CLASS of 1919 made its Hrst appearance at Wichita High School in the fall of 1915. Not being exceptions to the general rule, the members of the class were naturally timid and in awe of the upperclassmen. However, as the year progressed, and they became better acquainted with the school and its customs, they began to enter into the spirit of the school. According to custom, this class was not organized, and consequently attracted very little attention from the rest of the school. However, a few of the more studious ones settled down to making grades which attracted attention, and in this way they started their high school career. The fall of 1916 found most of the class back at school and ready to prove themselves an important factor in the school. No timidity or backwardness was in evidence now, for these people no longer were freshmen, but sophomores-wise, lively sophomores. As early as possible, a meeting was called and the following ofhcers were elected: Harold Rounsavell, president, Garnet Westbrook, vice- president, Louise Avey, secretary, Carrol Brown, treasurer, Max Buckingham, sergeant-at-arms, and Paul Duke, yell-leader. Later in the year Ruth Schollen- berger was elected vice-president to take the place of Garnet Westbrook who moved out of town. Under the capable leadership of these people, everything undertaken was a decided success. The first sophomore party was greatly en- joyed, but the second was a greater success, because of the unusual and exceedingly attractive features of the program. That year the class was well represented in the school activities. One of their number brought honor to the class by making the debating team. Several members of the class served on second teams in ath- letics, and in the interclass meets the nineteeners made a splendid showing. At the end of-the school year, the class was considered very progressive. When school opened in the fall of 1917, the junior class had dwindled some- what, but each of those who remained realized the importance of the work ahead of him and his duty to the class and to the school. After a few weeks the class met and was organized. Donald Boggs was elected president, Pauline Welwood, vice-president, Virginia Giroux, secretary, Thornton Sargent, treasurer, George Pease, sergeant-at-arms, Louise Avey, class reporter, and Virgil Cunliffe, yell- leader. After a short time it was decided to have a junior-senior party with the seniors acting as hosts. The party was well attended by both juniors and seniors The second party given about the middle of the year was a joint party, and the juniors and seniors equally shared the honors of hosts. This party proved to be as successful as the first one. The third party was given in the spring, and was a party in which the juniors had a chance to display their ability as hosts. -Needless to say, the juniors kept their reputation and showed the seniors that they could furnish real entertainment in the way of a very clever party. By this time the class of 1919 was well represented in all kinds of school activities. There were class representatives on the Hrst football team, the hrst basket-ball team, and on the track and baseball teams. In addition to this, the class was again represented on the debating team. 'At the annual held day, the juniors showed the seniors a good fight. At the end of the school year, they were all ready for a vacation to rest for the big year of high school life, the senior year. The effects of the war on the class was shown by the small number enrolled for school in the fall of 1918. The number of boys had decreased noticeably, because many of them had answered the country's call and entered government IIlIlllIllllIIlIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllI 1 H 1 g IIIIllIIIIllIIIIIIIIllllllllllIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllI Page Thirreen
