Class I-hstory was a bright sunny day September 1919 when the class of 1923 first entered the Emporium High School By no roll of thunder or flash of lightning did nature give warning that a great event had transpired In the High School the faculty sat calm and serene unconsclous that anything was happen ing To them the day meant simply that another Freshman class had entered High School To all outward appearances they were as green as any preceding class and the faculty accepted them as such and proceeded to use upon them methods and weap ons sharpened by vears of experience with mediocre classes Events slipped along ln oiled fashion for one short week and then the class of 1923 having gotten over the r fear of this temple of higher learn ing shook the r wings free and proceeded to soar In all directions they soared until one day ln the second week of school Professor Clawges sit ting in hls office enJov1ng a few days rest between the openmg of school and the appearance of the first bad boy of the year had his meditations broken in a singular way The door fiew open slammed shut, and Mr Pontzer stood before his chief his curls on end his face pale and drawn several reference books from the extensive High School library tucked under one arm Stammer ing and stuttering ln his excitement he managed to convey his request He must he slmply must have more time to devote to study and research My dear sir said Professor Clawges in his dignified manner Why this sudden thirst for knowledge? Mr Pontzer his voice heavy with the solemnlty of the words hovering on his llps An unforseen event has hap pened A wonder class has come to High School ln the guise of this year s Freshmen They are a class of geniuses slr a class with brams the first we have had in my experience and no doubt the last However you and I must be equal to the occasion we must not be caught napping by this super- class. By constant study, summer school work and correspondence courses we can feed the unusual minds of the class. At first Professor Clawges could not would not believe such action necessary but in order to be sure he went forth taught two classes him- self and rushed back to Mr. Pontzer with these words My son you have spoken the truth, we must get busy. ' So by dint of constant efforts the teachers managed to keep up with the class of 1923 though several of them wore out with the effort and dropped by the wayside. Because this history must be truthful it cannot be modest. If any of my fellow students or readers are a bit skeptical over the events so far related let him or her but think back over the four years now past and see if they can account in any other way for the phenomenal rush of teachers to the summer schools during this time.
