Ti 71 Oni. Freshman Class History On the fifth day of September in the year 1926 at 9 A. M. there came to the Herington High School Building some seventy-six girls and boys whose faces were filled with eagerness and anticipation and whose eyes sparkled with interest. It was several days before the process of organization was completed and these boys and girls coming from the four corners of our town found themselves working as one unit, the eighth grade. During this same time a process of assimilation was going on and one morning this class found they were a part of our splendid High School system and were instructed to organize and to elect some one of their number to represent them in the High School Student Council. As a consequence our sponsors, Mrs. Frost and Miss Kunkle, called a class meeting and the following officers were elected: Student Council Representative, Max Hollister: Class President, Edith Gilman, Secretary, Florence Meyers: Pep Club, Dean Hughes, Jacob Bernhardt. During our eighth grade year we distinguished ourselves by being model students, we had football, basketball and track teams, each making an ex- cellent record and bringing honor to Our Class and when school closed in May, seventy-two of us were promoted. During our eighth gradeship we had considered ourselves a part of the High School but on the morning of September 6th, 1927, we truly became members of the School and as Freshmen entered the fold some ninety strong. We immediately organized, sending as our representative in Student Council, Ted Keever, and electing the following officers: Max Hollister, Presi- dent, Edward Eastridge, Vice-President, Dale Koepke, Secretary, Jacob Bernhardt, Cheer Leader, Jacob Bernhardt and Dean Hughes, Pep Club. Under our sponsor, Miss Harding, as Freshmen we are well represented in all the activities of the school gathering to ourselves and holding our share of the honors. During our initial year we have made our personality, scholarship and leadership so felt that we are confident the class of 1931 will ever be favor- ably looked upon by faculty and student body. Here's to the Good old Herington High, Here's to her colors, the red and the orange, Long may they wave, Ever untarnished and ever unstained. tmmmm-.zmm mmmzn-arm?
