CLASS OFFICERS LEO NEWFARMEU EVERETT STAPLETON MADGE BAYLIS R. H. ARMS President Vice President Secretary Adviser MOTTO: “Pick a peak and climb.” COLORS: Silver and Blue. FLOWER: . Sweet Pea. Class History In the fall of 1924 we entered our career as students of G. J. H. S.—a group of green and wide-eyed Freshmen. We elected Louise Agner for our president, and were finally organized to begin our fight with those lofty persons, the Seniors, for our lawful rights. By the end of the year we had a number of men in the athletic field, and our representatives on the Scholarship Team had done excellent work. In our Sophomore year we entered school with quite a different outlook on life. We soon let the Freshmen know we were in a higher class of society than they were, and then, on the whole, we settled down to good hard work. We made some showing in almost every line of activity, and were piloted safely through the year by Merle Vincent as our president. We ended the year with a noteworthy picnic at Kannah Creek. As all Juniors are, we felt quite proud of our position, for only one more year and we would be Seniors. We participated in every thing, and felt proud that we helped gain the Western Slope championship in basketball, foot- ball, and track. We had three members in the debating team and five in the scholarship team. They all made a fine showing. With the aid of our president, Elmer Lee, we selected and ordered our class pins, and carried through the plans of our Junior-Senior party with the greatest success. At last we reached the pinacle of our career— wre were Seniors! Under the leadership of our capable president, Leo Newfarmer, we have done our best to make this year a success in the history of the High School. We have ranked high in all lines of activities and our class play, “The Seven Chances’ , was a real success. With the proceeds from the play we have bought a Kardex System for the school. We owe much to our sponsor, Mr. Arms, who has faithfully helped us in every way possible to fill the position assigned to us as Seniors. We now leave our position to the classes following us and hope they will learn to love and respect old G. J. H. S. as we do, and will do their part to keep up its standards. LOUISE AGNER.
