And no wonder - for walking up its steps was the largest class ever to enter Hudsie - fifty two new, ambitious students. The class has lost a few members since that time. However, add- itional ones have been added so that now we number forty-six. But that is not all that has happened in the years that have passed. During the course of cur stay here we have had many unforgetable experiences. In our Freshmen year, with Miss Mulder as our advisor, we enjoyed a roller-skating party in which many of us wore skates for the first time. We also had a grand Halloween party with the Sopho- mores. In the spring of the year many of our class traveled to the championship debate in Ann Arbor to cheer our team on. The same year saw two of our group in declamation and one in the Athletic play. In our Sophomore year with Miss Winter as our sponsor, we went on another free-wheeling party in Grand Rapids. Later in the year we had a combined pot luck and tobaggon party. Here we learned how much food it is possible for some people to devour. This year we have as our class advisor, Mr. Brandt. The class is well represented in all activities with four Juniors in the Athletic play and eight of our members in the Junior - Senior play. We were very active in athletics also, having Juniors on the football and basketball varsity teams. Several boys are trying out for baseball now. A large group is musically inclined being in both band and glee club. Three of us were on this year's debating team and also in forensics. By having so many from the Junior class engaged in extra-curri- cular activities we feel that we are playing a big part in making our high school life enjoyable and entertaining. Now we are looking forward to the big social event of the school year - the Junior - Senior banquet at the end of the year. After that only one more year and our high school days will be over. Then we too can take our place in the world and look back upon our high school days and contemplate upon the various activities, studies and functions in which we engaged and say with satisfaction, tnose indeed were opport- une years . ggrc'vnnv r i;;.v!is y-'. ffw.f.y r.C”'
