Macomb Higk School The Spider Web, 1020 History of the Class of 1920 T was on one bright September morn that the class of 1920 entered the Macomb High School as “Freshies.” When we entered High School we all looked forward to the time when we would be called the great and worthy Seniors. We were coached during our Freshman year by Miss Turk. Our first year was uneventful, aside from a few social gatherings. “Sophs! Some one has said that the most accomplished are those who say the least about their accomplishments, but when we became Sophomores we felt that we had reached a stage at which we ought not only to be seen but heard. Our advisor, this year, was Miss Kenner and thru her encouragement we pledged ourselves to support a French Orphan. We were successful in our attempt, but the greater portion of our success may be attributed to our worthy advisor. Miss Kenner. Although we had only one representative on the varsity eleven and five.” we were very proud of him. He proved himself versatile and was most essential for the success of the teams. Fate seemed against us as we entered on the joys and pleasures, the duties and rcs|H»nsibilitics of the school year. 1918-19. We had just begun work in earnest when we were halted by tin flu. We had several social activities this year, among which was a “kid party. Wc came dressed as kids and enjoyed ourselves immensely. We took first prize also at the box supper, much to tin-chagrin of the Seniors and Sophomores. On April 21. we entertained the faculty and Seniors with an informal banquet, which was a great success. Wc owe a large share of our success to our advisor. Miss Fuller, who so ably assisted us in all our undertakings. The social life of our class was more extensively cultivated this year. During the year we held a Hallowe’en party, a wienie roast, and a party for the winners of the F.nglish debate. It was during our Sophomore year that the I nited States en tered the Great War. The first boy to join the colors was a Sophomore. The boy who paid the supreme sacrifice was a Sophomore. Seniors alas! I)iguificd( ?) Seniors. What a number of rec ollections of the past five years rush into our minds when we sec that title. We have I lad many victories and failures, ami recall all of them with more or less pleasure. We started out in September, forty-four strong, but alas; Our number has dwindled to forty-one. Two of the departed ones have embarked upon the Sea of Matrimony. Twenty -«x
