1920 T RAN SC E N DENT A LI ST 1920 Junior Class History ’Tvvas a bright, almost hot clay of spring, one of the drowsy days that are good grow-ing weather, also good dreaming weather. 1 was sitting in my seat staring at a Caesar hut my eyes saw not the book and my thoughts were far away. I was dreaming, as I often do, and my dreams were of things gone by. I saw on a bright day of September, a crowd of young people, Freshmen they were, and they had just entered the Nokomis High School. I was one of the bunch and I still remember how my brain whirled and my head swam as I was swept, half consciously, through the events of that first day. I saw that class meet one evening, soon after, to organize and I remember the defeated spirit of the boys when all girls were elected to the offices. I saw the class struggle through their studies; saw them at the party that they gave to the Sophomores and saw them as they closed the year; and I thought to myself that truly it was good to be a Freshman. I awoke, started up, rubbed my eyes and attacked Latin, but again my memory swept me away and again my eyes closed and the scene changed. It was another room in the same building, crowded to overflowing and as 1 looked over the assemblage I noticed that some should be there, but were missing, and in their places I saw new faces, new members of the class. I saw them as they elected their officers. I saw them as they rode on over their difficulties and carried their work. I saw them at the party as they entertained themselves, interclass parties being forbidden. 1 saw them as they came out on the court and battled with the Seniors for first place in basket-ball.
