- 23' - ' NENDIRS 0 ff Class H wtory On the cold grey morning of January 29 1923 the majority of the members of the class of January 27 entered the various high schools of the city of Port land to make great names for themselves and their respective schools. In their first year out of grammar school they led for the most part the conventionallv modest lives of the average freshmen under the tyranny and subjection of the upper classmen principally the second termers and sophs When their second or sophomore year came along they had about decided to settle down to make Washington jefferson or Franklin as the case might be f ' their places of laborpfor the following three years. But as fortune would have it the ever-thoughtful school board decided in the middle of their second year to ' place at their disposal the school which was destined to become their Alma Mater Out of curiosity necessity or gratitude or some other such motive in Septem ber 1924 they came they saw they stayed In thiseyear came the first attempts at class organization but the lack of tradition and the newness of the entire environment in addition to the inexpe 1 rience of the class as a whole made the attempts unsuccessful. In spite of the lack of formal organization however the class never lacked school spirit being well to the front and running a close race with the class of June 26 in student body activities. It was not until the last year in school however that the class really came to life and took its rightful place in school affairs. They soon perfected an organi- 4. . zation selecting Kenneth Moore President' Dorothy F raley Vice-President' 1 Kathryn West Secretary' Jack Card Treasurer' Harold F raundorf Sergeant-ab 1 Arms- Norman Scovill Editor' and Miss Davis and Mr. Ferrier as faculty ad- visors The busy life of Seniors then followed and events came and went in 4 rapid succession ' among them being the Freshman Frolic the Jan.-June football ? game Class Day and the class play The Four Flusher. ' . Finally at the culmination of the four-year struggle came commencement and the Class. of january, 1927, was graduated, and! became the second alumni 4 unit of Ulysses S.

-+-is: A -e is e nannies -an - I An Estimation of Values I As the members of the January 1927 class review their days at high school . they find themselves confronted with the question- just what has. high school . meant to me and what of greatest value have I learned? Is it the credits I have earned or is it something else that I have gained? Opinions may vary among the graduates and students but in my estimation it is not the lessons from books that have beentof greatest value but rather the lessons of group living team work service honor perseverance and self-sacrifice. Members of our class are now ready to go out into the world with either col- lege or business before them. It is in these places of broader activities that the lessons which they have learned in high school will prove of incalculable value and in re-estimating their high school days they will find that those bigger lessons - - count ' for those habits of life we have gained are great dynamic forces aiding us .' . to go successfully toward life s wider fields--or they are- of little value to us . according to the depth with which we have emplanted them. ' I We all know how service and self-sacrifice have helped Grant make its suc- cessful beginning. The time given by the teachers has helped raise the scholarship standing of our school. The time which the athletes have given while in training I and the personal pleasures which they have sacrificed in order to keep fit for the . athletic contests have enabled us to develop championship teams. The clubs and student body organizations too have helped to hew away : selfish individual notions and to teach us to cooperate in groups for the common i good. Even as service has made our school successful so shall it make our college . or business life successful. An old maxim says Give of service and tis true- service will be returned to you. ' I In leaw ing Grant High School the january Class wishes to leave one word with the students-make use of the opportunities afforded you and learn the bigger lessons upon which the success of your future depends.
