JANUARY. ’24, CLASS HISTORY THE January. 24. class entered East High in 1919 as the largest freshmen class that ever entered East and also the greenest class. We “ran wild until 1921. when we organized and elected Mr. Jefferson Benner as class adviser; Herman Hilleboe. president; Mabel Sampson, vice-president: Ruth Skellie. secretary: and Theodore Liberkowski. treasurer. Two parties were given at East in the sewing room. The prize fox trot was the feature of the evening at the first party. Herman Hilleboe won the prize of a shaving outfit and Ralph Palmgren with Mabel Sampson won honorable mention. Paper hearts with the names of the members of the class were worn. In 1922 a sad event caused us to be separated from our classmates at East. We were glad to come to our new school but hated to part from our old friends: however, no tears were shed. We were a lucky class to have Mr. Benner come to Edison with us. Our first class election resulted in having Theodore Liberkowski. president: Earl Sheppard, vice-president: Alida Am-bert. secretary: and Ralph Palmgren, treasurer. Our first class party at Edison was held November 10. 1922. Fred Fleming and Virginia Early won the prize fox trot. Fred received a hat and Virginia was presented with an expensive doll set of table and chairs. Wonder if Virginia ever made use of them! The last social event was the combined Junior class Chow Mein dinner which was a great success. Mr. Benner helped make the Chow Mein and it tasted good. At the next election Theodore Liberkowski was again elected president; Gladys Kucera. vice-president; Alida Ambert. secretary: and Fred Fleming, treasurer. Our party for this term was a joint one with the June. '24. class. We found this party to be more successful than the first one. A good program consisted of a piano solo, readings, and a song. Games and dancing were the features later in the evening. The second election of 1923 brought forth Theodore Liberkowski. president; Earl Sheppard, vice-president: Alida Ambert. secretary; and Fred Fleming, treasurer. The feature party of this term was the “hard time party. Miss Cole won a wagon for having the largest feet of the faculty. We are glad that Miss Cole has a good understanding. With the class play and our banquet each a success, our class history closes. We are no longer “green” freshmen but “greener alumni facing the cruel world. Laura Johnson. Page 24
