Class Poem CLASS OF 1922 We the class of twenty-two, Now bid you sad adieug The class thatls been surpassed by none, The class that's proven true. Dear school, through these four years We've gone- With hopes to graduate! For Senior goals we've struggled on, To learn Lifels lesson great. We've taken pride, our school, in you, We've worked to lead the rest, We've tried our uttermost to do, What we believed was best. And now We part, dear school of ours, To go our many ways, With memories of sweetest hourse Which graced our high school days. Although We go to different climes In other land or sphere, We'l1 all remember school day times, The days of joy and cheer. The friends vveive made While there each day, Though numbered by the score, Will in our minds as treasures stay4 Although we meet no more. But e'er we go let's give a toaste To all who are to come, May they be qualiiied to boast Oi a class like twenty-two. just one more word as we pass by, And go upon life's way, May God look down on C. S. Highe And bless her every day. RUTH ATNIP MALCOLM PUTTY

Mary: Today is the one hundredth anniversary of the graduation of the class of 1922, and tonight there is to be a big celebration in the auditorium in honor of the finest class that ever left the Colorado Springs High School. Teacher: Correct, John, will you tell the history of this unusual class in its Freshman year? john: The Class of '22 entered the high school, four hundred strong, in the fall of 1918. From the very start they were famous for their originality, pep, and enthusiasm, and were immediately recognized as the leaders of the school. The class party, proved to be the greatest success of the school year. Oh yes, and the class was one hundred per cent. behind all athletics. Susie: Pleath teacher, but they were thmart in their thtudies too. Teacher: Yes, indeed they were. But to go on to the Sophomore year. What can you tell of that Annie? ' Annie: 'lUnder the leadership of Wren Whitlow, they rose to still greater things. This year another party was held which even surpassed the one of the year before, much to the disgust of the upper classmen. Of course, they were always interested in the welfare of the school, and did all in their power to support its worthwhile activities. Teacher: Yes, well, Susie? Susie: Yeth, and they got all Ais bethidesf' Teacher: What can you tell of the third year, Tom? Tom: 'tThe third year was very important. Ross Keyte was president, and made a mighty good one.
