0-T-1THE EPOCH.192'T-- -llc Il Junior Class History We, the class of '28, came into high school in the year of 1924. We were a large class then with many hopes and lots of ambitionjwhich we still have. s The first year we furnished part of the second team and two of the boys played on the first team. The Sophomores of that year gave us a party which, sorry to say, was a failure. The second year we were still a large class and took a large part in the athletic events, furnishing three men for the first basket ball team and several for the second team. We took a prominent part in the track meets and took second in the inter-class track contest. Several of the members took part in the operetta, In Old Louisiana. One of our num- ber was awarded the honor sweater for getting the highest average of grades in scholarship and citizenship. We had a weiner roast and a class party that year. This year, the third of our career in high school. we are the most promising lot of students in the school for so we think.J We are ener- getic fans and boosters for the team. Practically all of the members be- long to some club or other. We are undertaking several money-making enterprises, as all Juniors do. At the color iight this year the Seniors were surprised at our strength. Their colors remained up, but so will ours next year. We have only one more year in high school, and after that we will all go our various ways. We are going to make these last two years count and try to make the people of Gas City remember the Juniors of '27 with pride. IOC ' THE MOVIE MENU See: The Reckless Lady-Lillian Smith.

o-THE EPocH,1927--M-0 H Sophomore Class History A stranger visiting Gas City High School in 1925 was heard to say, Those Seniors are the most intelligent looking bunch of pupils I have ever seen. I certainly prophesy an interesting and promising future for them. But that man was mistaken in just one respect. The group of pupils that he was speaking of were not Seniors, but the Freshman Class! Ot course there could be no mistake in the compliment which he had paid them even though the Seniors did have their gay feathers slightly ruffled. The truth is that there were twenty-seven entering high school in the fall. with an additional twenty-one joining them at mid-year, making a grand total of forty-eight. Due to their interest in all things good and the noticeable co-operation of all members, this class attained distinction in club work and other activities. One of these little green Freshies was chosen as yell leader for the high school. So are Freshies so insigniiicent, and do they contain chlorophyll? Notwithstanding a decrease in number from forty-eight to thirty-six, at the opening of the Sophomore year. quality is still one of our traits. Two of the boys were subs for the first team. five were regulars on the second team, and two girls were regulars on the girls' team. Five girls were members of the Y-Hi. fifteen of the Sophomores were prominent in Latin Club. and an additional twelve in Glee Club. An interesting record, is it not? Perhaps all this enthusiasm and desire to do and be something, originated when that man mistook these Freshies for Seniors.
