of f H0 ' History of the Senior Class In September, 1925, a class of about sixty of the greenest of Freshmen stepped upon the first step toward high school education. Looking upwards, the other steps looked hard and very difficult to climb. However, this little band of Fish was not to be discouraged. The Fish readily fell in line with the upper classmen by taking a part in the various school activities. They soon established themselves by- their many acts of school spirit, class loyalty, and sportsmanship. With lots of confidence and hard work we became what is commonly known as suffermores. Gradually, however, we lost the greenness that had been so distinct in our Freshman year and made it a real Sophomore class. This year we took part in all the school activi- ties and athletics. Then we came to the Junior year, or half way mark. As Juniors, 1928, we led the school in pep and achievement, not only in athletics but also in the treacherous sands of old geometry, English, history, and chemistry along with the other rivers of knowledge. Those who survived the trials and tribulations of these three years compose the Senior Class of 1929. Now that we are finishing our fourth and last year, who among us can think of the struggles, adventures, and hardships without a feeling of gladness and rejoicing in knowing that we have accomplished so much. Although we, the Senior Class, stand at the last milestone of our high school career, we realize that it is only the first milestone on the great road of life. But now, as we look back at these four years that we have pass- ed with hard work and difficulty, they seem to lose their gruesome aspect and become sweet memories to us. We make our departure from Sweetwater High School with a touch of remorse tugging at our hearts, but then, we see the great world out ahead with all its ad- ventures and opportunities, smiling at us and beckoning us on. So, with the happiness of our high school career still fresh in our memory, we become determined to mount the pinnacle of success. K-5 'X,f- AN F u f H , U ' ,, ,l 9 ' , ' x 4 ,N ., 'F 17. . ,x.
