I St. v Senior History On September 7, 1926, we, the class of 1930, entered Humboldt County High School as a group of 39 excited boys and girls. A few days later we were made regular member of the high school, after which we settled down to earnest work. With the Freshman Dance, one of the important social events, we soon found our first year at an end. By the beginning of our Sophomore year our class had dimished to 30, for Elsie Kibbee had entered the Junior Class, and 8 other members had withdrawn from school entirely. During our second year we were well represented on the honor-roll, .in athletics, and in the Student Body, while our Sophomore Hop was very successful. When we returned to school again in September, we were starting out as upper-classmen, and were determined to make the best of the fact. With several boys to represent us in football and a number of Junior’s names on the honor-roll, we started off with a good showing. Our Junior Prom went off very well. In basketball, Harold Branting and Electa Rollins showed what two Juniors can do. During the second semester Cleto Bengoa and Ralph and Ruth Bowrin left our class to.become Seniors. Our Junior year soon passed by, and we looked forward with great pleasure to our next year, as Seniors. Returning to school last fall as Seniors, we proceeded to win more honors for the class of 1930, under the direction of Albert Lowry who has been our class advisor since we have been in high school. Harold Branting and Glenn Lyon have each served one term as president of the Student Body, and the latter was vice-president of the Student Body for one term. Fred Walts was selected as the Editor of the Winnada, and Carl Watson and George Miller have each been treasurer for one semester. When Coach Lowry called football practice, 11 Senior boys responded; namely: David Abel, Harold Branting, LeRoy Brophy, Philip Defenbaugh, Donald John- stone, Glenn Lyon, George Miller, Lloyd Mullinix, Emil Tolotti, and Fred Walts. Shortly after the beginning of the school year, 3' Juniors, Ruth McBride, and Helen and Mary Jane Cornforth joined our class. Both the boys’ and girls’ basketball teams were composed to a great extent of Seniors, all of whom made a good showing. H. C. H. S. was represented in debating by Hermine Giroux and LeRoy Brophy, both Seniors. Soon after the second semester began Eunice Bell left the Junior class to enter ours. We are now awaiting the Junior-Senior Banquet, Graduation, and the Senior Ball, the last events of the school year, with the hope that the remainder of our lives will be as happy and successful as the days we have spent in Humboldt County Hi. -M.

Junior History The Freshman class of 1927, entered high school with the qualms and vague indescision characteristic of the young and inexperienced entering on a strange adventure. To us high school wasqust that—an adventure. Of the horrible process called iniation, we had heard disquieting rumors, and were somewhat overawed at the prospects of Undergoing this modern inquisition. We came through this harrowing experience with what courage we were able to command, and then remarked that “it wasn’t so bad after all!” The Frosh glee was successfully accomplished on November 3. The following year found us rapidly outgrowing our juvenile habits and assuming the responsibility of properly impressing the new Freshmen with their inferiority. In giving the Sophomore Hop, we displayed our talent at entertaining. Our athletic ability was adequately proven, and we were quite proud to have our class represented on the Basketball team, representing Nevada in the National Tournament at Chicago. As Juniors we have achieved distinction for ourselves in various student body activities. A state prize won in the National Chemistry Essay contest and representation in the play sent to Reno added to our prestige. The Junior Prom was a first class entertainment, and upheld our reputa- tion in this field. We are quite confident of finishing our record in Humboldt Hi as well as we have begun it, and anticipate our Senior year with pleasant memories of the three that we have already spent here.
