We were fullffledged Juniors, now one hundred and twentyffour in num' ber, and could belong to clubs and take a greater part in school activities. We elected as our Junior officers: Robert White, Presif dent, Paul Lunsford, VicefPresidentg Leona Byers, Secretaryg Robert Sparnon, Treasurer. We, as Juniors, presented The Comic Treat to help pay for the JuniorfSenior Ban' quet. The banquet was held at the Easterling Club House, May 19, 1933. We then joined the Sophomores at the Beta Hall for dancing. Our turn had now come! After these eleven years of joy and sorrow together, we held the much coveted position of Seniors. There were only ninety left to finish the course from the one hundred and fifty who had started on the journey. W'e elected as our officers: Robert White, President: Paul Lunsford, VicefPresident, Georgiana Hutchif son, Secretary, and Robert Sparnon, Treasurf cr. Our class colors were blue and silver, our flower, the roseg and our motto, Rowing, Not Drifting. We are now looking forward to the Hnish- ing touches of our beautiful painting. What is more glorious than to reach the goal for which we have striven? We now have reached l'The star to which our wagon was hitched. We have shared joys and sorrows, alike, in this dear old school. We will never forget some of our happy moments here and the friends whom we have learned to love. Teach' ers, students, friends, and all have come to the parting of the ways. With regret, we say farewell to each and every one. Now that we have reached our destination, our hearts are not bursting with joy as we thought they would. We never thought it would be so hard to leave the old school on the hill. So, with sadness in our hearts, going Cut of School Life into Life's School merely commencing another phase of our lives, we bid this dear old school adieu! Gone but not forgotten Are the school days on the hill, But our hearts will always hearken To those memories still! l-lonor Students Leona Byers ..... Robert White ..... Mary Coakley ........

fi-w W sn .-pfgvv.-ag-f5..:. - V. CLASS I-IISTOIQY UUR Lives Began! Up the hill we trudged to start the period of our lives that can never be forgotten. This was twelve years ago, in 1922. Never, then, did we think of the goal we were striving to reach. But with each succeeding year, we have given greater thought to this important event-graduation. In a comparatively short time we were in the sixth grade. Here we seemed superior to the rest of the students and were free to express our own opinions. During this year we looked forward with eagerness to entering Junior High. The year came at last when we were sevf enth graders. How well we remember the innumerable bells, the changing classes, the wrong stairs, and the many teachers. After fitting ourselves into the picture, we realized that many other girls and boys had joined us. They came from other parts of Logan and some from rural districts. We soon learned that many of these students had much ability, and, therefore, competition increased. At first it was like a Carnival, meeting strange people, getting acquainted, and, thereby, inf creasing our number of friends. In the eighth grade one event marred our new surroundings. This was the death of Mr. C. F. Ridgley, our beloved Superinf tendent, who had given us a helping hand from the time we had started to school eight years Sefore. His passing was a great sorrqw tk all. For-'LTo know him was to love him, t ame him as to aisef' 'QU W ri . Finally, after struggling with some studies and enjoying others, we attained the highly desired position of Freshmen. There were one hundred and fifty of us at that time. We felt quite overfjoyed because we .held the X . .A . highest position in Junior High. We could again create new friendships as students from the Parochial and outfofftown schools had joined us to make the scene more complete. During this year we held our first class meet- ing and elected the following oflicers: Ray McMullen, President, Robert White, Vice President, Maggie Terrel, Secretary, and Miriam Geddes, Treasurer. The conclusion of this year's activities was the Freshman Pic' nic which was held near Logan. The following year seemed to us, at that time, to be the attainment of a goal that would be the high spot in our lives. We entered Senior High. Although we thought we were important, we soon found that we were again Babies Above us were the proud Juniors and dignified Seniors while we were merely Sophomores. Our number had now decreased to one hundred and forty. In place of a new building, such as Junior High, we found only creaking floors, wooden stairways, and desks that showed that Logan had much talent in original decoration. We soon learned, however, that it was not the building that made the deepest impression but the friends we made and the memories of the school which we will always keep in our hearts. We again had an election which resulted in the election of Willard Helber, President, Helen Belt, VicefPresidentg Helen Nixon, Secretary, Vivian Huls, Treasurer. During this year many of our members became en' gaged in athletic activities. The football and basketball teams proved to be the most suc' cessful within recent years. Being in Senior High held another glory for us. This was the Sopohomore Banquet Page Twentyfthree
