THE ,IUNCO-ED 1927 SENIOR DRESS-UP DAY The Senior dress up day was great fun this year. f Each member of the Senior class took particular pains in dressing up and every costume was of interest to all the students. Gladys Dorsey was a little girl with a large ribbon bow on her hair and a cry baby doll in her arms. Elbert Starns was na little 'boy in knee pants. Alva Pedersen and Ida Markusen were old ladies in dresses with high necks, tight waists and long skirts. Vard Nelson's make up was a cross between a junk man's and a hobo's outfit. Wint Bodtker was the real kick with his preacher's outfit- Wint had everything except the Bible and Halo. Pearl Bevel was an old. fashioned Miss with curls and la sun bonnet. Edward Ruder was a gentleman of some years ago who wore, among other things, a straw hat and a four in hand tie. Gladys Christensen wore the national costume of Denmark. Several fsnapslhots were taken, some of which may be seen on the snap shot page. ',' AA I 10 INTERCLASS BASEBALL The first game of the 1927 baseball season was between the Juniors and the rest of the school. It was understood before the game that the Juniors would have a walk away due to the fact that they had most of the regular high school men. The dope was upset, however, and altho the Juniors won, it was by the small score of 4 to 3. Sogaard and Young made up the battery for the winners while Taylor and G. B-lackwell tossed for the losers. This is the third year of interclass baseball. Other ,scores were 2 to 2-Seniors-Freshmen vs Juniors-Sopho- mores. 7 to 7 Seniors-Sophomores vs Juniors-Freshmen. -.LO FOOTBALL RALLY The annual football rally was held last fall the Thursday before the Lebanon game. A large rally fire kindled the spirits of the students who marched up and down the streets chanting fthe high school yells. After everyone had become hoarse they adjourned to the fire where they played games until a late hour. 18
