F RESHMAN CLASS Esther Amick Oscar Kirk William Cheney Berthold Phillips Alta Chouleur Elinor Prouty Viola Fairbank Dorothe Sheldon Everett Fancher Nancy Van Praag Albert Glavich Roscoe Wilson Willie He Won Dorothy Winter On September the 5th, i922 we, fourteen little freshies made our first appearance at the lone Union High School. The thought that we were through with Grammar School and entering High filled us with triumph, but this was very speedily taken out of us by the upper classmen. Of course changing rooms and periods was rather perplexing for awhile but after getting accustomed to this and becoming acquainted with our new teachers we man- aged to get along very nicely. The Freshmen initiation party was given the second week of school and we were a badly frightened bunch until it was over. We returned the party about a month later. The Freshman class took a prominent part in athletics this year. Some of the boys played as subs on the football and basket ball teams. Three of the girls played on the girls' second basket ball team. ln another year's time we hope to be able to make an even better record. fi Freshman Class Vnur' I-'mlrtccn

SOPHOMORE CLASS Fifteen husky Freshmen entered the lone Union High School in 1921. To our disappointment, after a few months of school, three of our classmates left. They were Roy Hannaford, Edna Solomonson and Hildred Robbins. We were duly initiated and each one was made to perform separately. During the year we attended parties given by the upper classmen, and we ourselves entertained the school by giving a 'Forty-Nine Masquerade Party . This year we have added another to our list being Mildred Folmer, and we hope she remains with us. We are represented in athletics by Kenneth Woolsey as captain of the football team, and other important players are Kenneth Mace, Flint Yarrington and David Mason. Another member of our class, namely Dixie Stewart is an excellent basket ball player. The orchestra is greatly aided by three of our members: Dixie Stewart and Lucille Yager, pianists, and Kenneth Woolsey with the trombone.

DRAMATICS POCAHONTAS The students of the High School presented an Operetta, named Poca- hontas, on December 22. Everyone took part in this either as principals or in the chorus work. Much time was spent in rehearsing. The Operetta was a change from what the High School has ever presented before. It was a real success and we feel we owe a great deal of the honor to Miss Collett, our instructor. SENIOR PLAY Nothing But The Truth , one of the most successful Senior plays the school has ever given, was presented by the graduating class of '23. It was necessary to ask two juniors to aid in the play. The question was, ls it possible to tell the absolute truth for twenty-four hours? It was, but it brought about a great confusion. The Cast was as follows: Robert Bennett ...............,.........v. ..... A llen Martin E. M. Ralston ..........,,............ ..... B yron Prouty Dick Donnelly .............. ......

To say that we had a good time would be putting it mildly. We had a baker's dozen of Fresh- men to initiate and when our Juniors took the ceremonies into their capable hands we were sure of a successful outcome. The Freshmen spent the next day scouring their faces and recovering from the effects of the night before . A Mock Wedding was presented to the High School on October 29, by the girls Clee Club. Some of the girls made very classy gentlemen . It turned out very successfully and the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. Refreshments were served at eleven-thirty. The Freshies entertained the upper classmen and members of the faculty by giving a Halloween Party on October 30. Everyone came dressed as small children of between ten and twelve. Games and dancing were en- joyed by all. Refreshments were served, after which everyone gathered around a large bonfire to tell ghost stories. A Quaker Party was given by' the juniors on November 25. All those in attendance came attired in Quaker costumes. All was carried out in Quaker style even to Beans and Vinegar. On December 22 the Operetta Pocahontas was given by the entire- High School at the Royal Theatre. It turned out to be quite a success. After EMILY FAIRBANK Page Fifteen the Operetta dancing was enjoyed.
