Perhaps they are not so green as they are often given credit for being. Our class has some athletic almility as it has given Gerald Sanders to lioothall's lirst eleven, and liohert Red Rhodes to the second team.

'lihc lireshmen are allowed three representatives to the Student Council. Norman Ross, Gordon VVhite. and lane Darden were elected to this august hotly. The freshmen lieel that they were made to feel at home when they tfirst came to Elkins High. The Student Council sponsored the Green Balll' in order that the freshmen might get better acquainted. This tended to hreak down any harriers that still remained in any lireshman's mind.
