X 'S-f4,...z THE CQM WENT 19121 .,.4Q25g 5,5, -fmt Senior Class History Keokuk High wore green in the fall of l923, when We, one hundred i1qndHeighty eager and wondering Freshmen, stumbled up the steps of . . S. Being no less green than the usual Freshies, we too carried all of our books around so we would not be tardy to classes, and asked numerous dumb questions of the dignified upper classmen. In a few weeks we felt that we were typical High Schoolersf' We boldly adopted the customary green for our class color. During this year we wore off our verdant hue and in l924 we entered the new High School. Again our surroundings seemed strange to us. After we had became familiar with the building and the traffic regulations of the halls, a class meeting was called. Purple and gold were chosen for the colors and the following officers were elected: Elizabeth Winger, President. George Collisson, Vice-President. Myrtle Koch, Secretary and Treasurer. On December 13, we gave a Sophomore Erolic in the gym, and in the spring we enjoyed a Weiner roast at the du Pont Gun Club. In September, 1925, we returned as sophisticated Juniors. Purple and gold were retained as the class colors. The officers elected were: Tench Gammon, President. Elizabeth Winger, Vice-President. Doris Arnold, Secretary. Paul Smith, Treasurer. Our first move was in sponsoring a program presented by Tony Sarg's Marionettes. We did not see Ht to have our usual class party. In June we gave the Seniors a rousing send-off with a dance and bunco party at the Country Club. We did not realize how quickly high school days would pass, until we returned to school in the fall to find ourselves Seniors. Yes, actually Seniors like those notables at whom we had looked in awe only three short years before. Once more the class officers were elected: Paul Smith, President. Elizabeth Winger, Vice-President. Tench Gammon, Secretary. John ldle, Treasurer. Blue and gold were selected as the class colors, and the rose was chosen for our flower. Socially, the year was uneventful to us, as a class, but we were all active in various school organizations. lt is now with regret that we, ninety-six strong, leave friends and faculty, the familiar halls and classrooms of dear old K. H. S. ELIZABETH WINGER. TWENTY-THREE
