Rita Williams Reporter...........................Grace Williams HI)c Journal GIRLS HIGH SCHOOL DECEMBER 1921 A Class Serial Produced by the High Freshmen (Synopsis of Preceding Episodes) HE heroines entered, with hearts filled with joys and expectation. But, great grief, their gladness was soon turned to sadness. They were mere scrubs—mistreated, misunderstood, unappreciated. Older girls looked down upon them. Their lives were an almost impossible round of hazardous experiences through which they managed to pass after a struggle of six months and to emerge victorious, though battle-scarred. Episode X The heroines have now arrived at the more respectable age of High Fresh- men. No longer are their elders able to east that eye of disdain upon them. No longer do they quake in fear when a Senior passes. No longer are they frightened to death of everybody and everything. Now they have a say in the government of that institution in which they reside, in the person of fifth representative. Now they can see that some of their bright ideas put before the executive committee, and of course the said “bright ideas” are always accepted! Why. most of the members of the Jazz Orchestra—the hit of season—are the members of the class! Who can dispute the class spirit and eizaringo that the members displayNow at least they can look at the Low Frosh and sav: “Just wait until you have had as much experience in the ways of school as we.” But they are still martyrs in face of the fact that they can be called Fresh- men and they are concentrating every effort to lose that name forever. So it goes. (To be continued) Paje Sine

Madeline Goldsmith Sergeant-at-Arms........................Jane Rowell Reporter..................... Barbara Mayer A Sanftum Talk “Good morning, Journal.” “Good morning, 2B’s. What can I do for you this morning?” “We just heard that everyone has been telling you all about her class and we just thought we had better let you know that the High Sophs were all ready with some good information too.” “That's just right. Better fall in line with the rest. “Well, let's see. What is the most interesting activity at Girls High this term?” “Why debating, of course.” “Oh, that's easy. Everybody knows that Ruth Clouse and Angelina Giaca- loni are members of our class, and they’re some debaters, too.” “Yes. that faet sure does speak good for December, '2d. How about athletics?” “On the tennis courts, Adaline Loeb and Bessie Allanberg swing mean rac- quets. In baseball last term we were well represented on the Sophomore nine. Margaret von Husen was captain and second baseman; Helen Imobersteg and Adaline Loeb were at home in the pitcher’s box; Ruth Clouse ever waiting for sizzling grounders to come her way, was a fine little shortstop: Barbara Mayer and Daisy Wong held outfield positions. The rest of the sports all attracted a num- ber of High Sophs.” “Some record! Well, that’s enough for any class to boast of. Keep up the good work.” “Thank you. We shall. So long.” “Good-bye.” Page Eleven
