HMSTQRY The student body is divided into four pants, the first and green- est is the Freshmen, another part, who is a little wiser is the Sopho- moresg a third part, who is still more wise is the Juniorsg and the Seniors. who are very dignified, proclaim the largest portion. The valley of experience divides the Freshmen from the Sopho- mores, the river of knowledge divides the Sophomores from the Juniors and the elders, the Seniors, are separated from these three by a very high mountain. In the year nineteen hundred and twenty one, thirty-three Freshmen gathered at the La Crosse High School under the direction of General Wedel and prepared to battle through and overcome their greenness. They took their dose before 8:45 Monday morning and the Sophoni-ores, Juniors and Seniors fairly smacked their lips at the sight of them. Soon the upper classmen began close in on them and they proceeded to braid the girls hair, making a display of hair pins and rats and also to take off the boys shoes. Then they were march- ed up through Main Street and back to the sch-ool house. This ended the fun until noon, but it did not end entirely. However, it was soon found out that their prey was too good natured to pester. In their Freshmen year they wisely selected Lena Smith as Pres., Marvin Turner as Vice Pres., aid Dorothy Miller as Sec'y-Treas. They also chose Brown and Gold for their colors and their motto, To Make Better Best. Their first important event was a hike, but the upper classmen took it upon t.hemselves to attend the Freshman hike also. However, they did not succeed in getting any of the eats except some pickles which were taken on Main Street before leaving town. In the year nineteen hundred twenty-two having crossed the val- ley of experience, they returned to be called Sophomores, and under- take the voyage across the river of knowledge. Some of their number be- longed to the spoils of battle by this time, but other members appeared to take their places. Since they were to be Sophomores, they held an election and chose officers which were the following: Dora Wilson, Pres., Rachel Renner, Vice Pres., and Clara Yost, Sec'y-Treas. The Sophomore tacky party marked an enjoyable event, which was held at the school house, all the faculty members present, and also the night watchman.
