65575211 , .re fa SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1924, the Freshmen Class of forty-three entered Oakville Union High School, probably looking green ibut not feeling sol. We took up the tasks of Freshmen by first electing our class officers who were Verna Lemmon, Presidentg Naomi Austin, Vice-President, Mary Overton, Secretaryg Robert Cummings, Treasurerg Cozette Ely, Yell Leaderg Gordon Theriault, Board of Control and Miss McQuaid as class advisor. After Mary Overton left us, Ruth Blechschmidt was elected Secretary. Although the Sophomores tried to put us through many tortures at initiation we managed to survive hoping that our turn to torture would come next year. A number of students participated in the operetta, Love Pirates of Hawaii. 1When the time came for us to take up our work as Sophomores, only twenty-three of our preceeding class enrolled. At our first class meeting we elected Dessie Burr, President: Ruth Blechschmidt, Treasurerg Lila Kocheij S-ecretaryg Robert Cummings, Board of Control: Cozette Ely, Yell Leader: Mr. Murphy filled the position of class advisor after Miss Hoyt left us. A new idea- was introduced at the Freshman initiation by making all Freshies interpret nursery rhymes. which was much enjoyed by upper classmen and very embarrassing to them. Several candy sales were given during the year. Then came the time of our Junior year with enrollment of twenty-seven students. During the few months school life went on in peace and harmony with Verna Lemmon as Presidentg Marie Criswell. Vice-Presidentg Ruth Blechschmidt, Secretary: Nellie Kilmer, Treasurerg Ralph Armstrong, Board of Control: and Ilene Morkert, Yell Leader. In November the class presented the annual Junior Carnival which was pronounced a decided success. likewise the Junior Play It Happened In June . which was given in April. We also gave many parties during the school year. In the fall 1927. twentyethree students enrolled as Seniors but only twenty-one remained to graduate, Edgar Easter acted as President, Ilene Morkert, Vice-President: Evelyn Pearson. Secretary: Mabel Price. Treasurer: Robert Cummings, Board of Control. VVe elected Mr. Murphy class advisor. As the custom of previous years we gave the Senior mixer at the beginning of the yea-r. Early in the spring we gave the Senior Frolic. ln April we gave the Senior Play, t'The Bride Breezes ln. Naomi Austin and Lila Kocher represented us for four years and Helen Damitio three years in girls athletics: Robert Cummings and Edgar Easter three years in boys athletics: Verna- Lemmon two years in debate and Ralph Armstrong one year. The last year of t'High Life' passed away altogether too fast, yet we hope that every day, has shown our strenuous efforts and we feel that the the class of '28, altho gone will not be forgotten. -Ha-zel Norman '28, Page 8
