I Hiflory of the Class of Nineteen Twenty-sefven --S.-...-......u,-... The Senior class of '27 started our Freshmen year with about fifty members, but unfortunately about fourteen of -them dropped out before the year was over. Of course, we were very exultant over being members of the Newcastle high school, but it did not take us long to find out that We were not the brightest in the school. The Sophomores showed us this on October 5, 1923 at an initiation party. Even if we were treated, as we thought, pretty rough, we all had a good time and left knowing decidedly more about high school life than we did when we came. During that year we had several lively parties and thoroughly enjoyed our first year in N. H. S. We entered our Sophomore year with only about twenty-five members. We did not have very good luck initiating the Fresh- men as one of them broke a -glass out of the Study Hall door where we had them locked till they all got there, and the janitor let them out. Of course, we could not round them up again so we just had a merry time at dancing and playing games. Other parties were given during the year which we all en- joyed. While we did not make any great record in athletics or de- bates, we gamely tried everything. All cannot be winners. At the beginning of our Junior year we had only fifteen mem- bers, but it does not take a big class to make a good one- Our sponsor was Mr. Ed. Hoel and the officers were Floyd West, Presi- dent, Frank Martin, Vice President and June Frazine, Secretary and Treasurer. Our President left us early in the year so the Vice President presided for the remainder of the term. Although, we were the smallest class in High School we held fur own in athletics. We did not defeat the Seniors but were vic- torious over the other classes. ' -P Of the four sent to Laramie for Academics the Junior class had the honor of sending Ellen Wantz for first year typing. Our class play, The Parlor Maid, was given on April 16, '26 and was a grand success. The social activities of the Junior class were numerous and al- ways enjoyed by everyone.

Senior Class Poem The time has come for parting, Parting from these happy days For we have come to a cross-road Where each must choose his way. Some of the roads are rough and steep All must trod in the dust awhile, But. I hope when all the clouds have passed We will come through with a smile. There will be many times when life will look black When it will seem that it's no use to try But as sure as the morning follows the night The skies will turn blue by and by. But no matter how many misfortunes we meet Or how many cares we must face If we can be honest and upright and good Then we will know we have won in life's race. -.16.. -June Frazine
