HISmOnv OF THE CLASS OF 1928 On a bright, sunny September day in 1924, the class of 1928 entered the assembly room. Our elde 8 turned around with winks and nods as if to say, Another Freshman class. Some of our number jo: ed the Glee Clubs, and others went out for some of the athletic teams. Of course a class cannot be without its class officers, so w gave the job of president to Claude Roemer, secretary to Amy Simonso treasurer, Wayne Johnson. Our class advisors were Miss Kierland and Mr. Nelson. The year broke up with our class picnic. When we came together in the fall of 1925, we received three new members: Florence McAdow, Irwin Kuske. and Floyd Walkington. Our clas3 officers for this year were Annetta McCullough, Billy Davis, Amy Simonson, and Robert Leckie. Miss Hyslop and Mr. Tieg3 helped us in our attempts that year. Some of our members received solo parts in the operetta, and others were important on the athletic field. We also presented a very successful one act play to the high school and later to the P.T.A. We worked hard and passed all our state exams-or most of them. We had planned a very pleasant picnic at the end of the year, but our pleasure was marred by the presence of the Freshmen.. We came back the next year with better intentions than ever. Miss Wuest was overjoyed to become our class advisor, and to assist her we chose Marian Chladek for president, Floyd Walkington vice-pres.

Florence McAdow for secretary and treasurer. Te went to work with a lot of ambition. Te chose '’The Charm School as our class play and such a success ’••as never witnessed before. The returns from the pla g.jid our abilities made it possible for us to give the Class of ’27 an excellent banguet. Our labors were interrupted' by .ou -sleigh rid party which we all enjoyed. Having completed all our studies satisfactorily and having escorted the seniors on their road to success we retired for a short rest in the summer. The September of 1927 saw a very active group of Seniors seated on the north side of the assembly room. Ta started in early to make our Senior Class renowned through the school and lake district, e needed a man of the world to help us through the year, so we selectee ’Valter Tyler president. Irwin Kuske became vice-president, Fildur Fkstrom secretary, and Louise Krause was chosen to secure all the money possible from the class. Miss Perry guided our efforts. ’Ve attended to our class business, such as rings, announcements, class colors, and various other things with enough discussion to make it profitable. The Juniors entertained us at a banquet during March, which we enjoyed very much. After some extensive searching we chose Hurry! Uurry! Hurry! for our Senior Class Play and that too proved successful. On the whole our four years in high school have held many successes and the Class of 1928 is going out into the world to add to these, leaving Mound High in better condition than we found it because of our presence in it.
