f dropped their studies entirely; others had gone to other schools. We Were beginning to realize that all of our education could not be acquired from our text books. To develop personality and to increase our physical as well as our mental capacity we must cooperate in the school activities and participate in the social and athletic functions as a means of self-expression. By the time we reached our Junior year we had developed a lively interest in the school and its affairs, and thus we returned, eager to take up our work to the furtherance of our own interests and those of the school. Each year after we became upper-ciassmen , we helped in giving a warm welcome to the incoming Freshmen in the same man- ner that We had been received. During our fourth and last year we worked hardest of all in order to reach the pinnacle of our ambitionegraduation. There are nineteen Seniors in the Class of 28. The following class oflicers were elected: President, Virgil Segale; Vice President, Edwin English; Secretary, Dorothy Jones; Treasurer, Highland Danby. The class flowers are a combination of American beauty rose and lily of the valley; the colors, old rose and silver. Many of our class- mates have received honors in contests and athletics. We have been grandly feted as a parting salute. The Freshmen girls gave a delightful reception to the Seniors, their mothers and the mothers of the Freshmen. The girls teams who were defeated in the inter-class tournament entertained the Senior Winners at a stag party. There was the annual farewell party and last but not by any means the least the Junior-Senior banquet, at which, I can safely say, a pleasant time was had by all. We feel that in these four years we have grown intellectually and that our four years training will better ht us for life and life,s work. We know that if we maintain the standard set by Loveland High we cannot fail in bur undertakings and responsibilities. We bid our schoolmates farewell with hearty good wishes for their success. And so another page is turned as the class of '28 passes out of the harbor into deep channels.

Undercoffer tWithdrawn, October 1927 HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS It is with high hope and great anticipation that we step out from under the mothering wing of old Loveland High, but not the least of these emotions is the sorrow that we experience at the thought of leav- ing our Alma Mater. We take with us fond recollections and apprecia- tion of what her student life has afforded us. We entered Loveland High School as Freshmen in September, 1924. Our little band consisted of 31 eager, bashful, not. to say greent, boys and girls. I think that socially the Freshman year is the hardest of all. Freshmen are the butt of laughter and objects of ridicule whether they are doing anything or not. It seems sort of traditional. School life is not a bed of roses, but there are many roses among the thorns. But it is not all thorns and roses either: there are mostly leaves. In our Sophomore year we felt quite elevated and very easily adhered to the custom of making the ttFreshies feel as small as posu sible. There were not as many in the class the second year: some had 15
