,fp ,Ls CRESCENT B910 enior Class History Lives of great men all remind us. We 'can make our lives sublimeg And in parting leave behind us: Footprints upon the Sands of Timefi With these words of Henry Wadsxs'ortl1 Dongrfellow in mind. the Seniors of '26 entered Elwood High in nineteen hundred and twenty-two endeavor- ing to accomplish that task. The first year they. as Freshmen, were practically disregarded by the upper classmen after the merriment of the first few days was completed. Hut with the dawn of the Sophomore sun, life changed-the entire atmos- phere appeared different to them-for then they were permitted te orfranize as a class and Pllliflip their own leaders. The 2A's chose frreen and white as their class colors and the sweet pea as their flower. Tn turn. the followinfr semester the 2l2's selected the sweet pea and Chinese red and white Tn the course of this year the male members of the class won for it the distinction of class football champions, by defeating the strong Senior eleven in an exciting game, By the time the rank of Juniors was attained they considered themselves exceedingly important and set about to accomplish many extraordinarv feats. One of the most eminent was the winning of the class Rasketh-ill tournament. P i Y' Several social events were enjoyed by both elasses while at the same time each was furnishing a major portion to the activities of the school as well as reaping the honors of scholarship. Then they entered upon the Senior year and the name of dignified seniors was attached to them. The mid-year class chose George Haviland as president. Paul Pugh. vice president. and Vera Thatcher. secretary and treasurer. while the sprint: class selected Arthur Harrell. president. Joseph Hiatt, vice president. Marjorie Downs, secretary, and Dottie Castor. treas- urer. T in--' New their course has been completed. Their high school days are past. Each one must bear his own burdens now and it is with remorse that they say Good-Bye. So in parting there is not a doubt but that their goal has been attained and that they in parting leave behind them foot prints on the sands of time. Page Twenty-seven
