Indeed, as one glanced over the happy and intelligent faces he was impressed with the idea of what a wonderful group of seniors would put their feet on the threshold of success in the year of 1926. As we began, the first obstacle that confronted us was the election of class officers. The officers chosen to lead this brilliant class were: Harold Sullivan, president, Ernest Kuse, vice-president, and Marie Jackson, secretary and treasurer. According to high school custom, we gave our freshman party in honor of the seniors. This party lived up to the class traditions by proving to be without a doubt, the most enjoyable and best managed party ever given by any class. The class showed their ability to entertain, as well as to provide a hearty lunch, which was quickly dis- posed of. The next thing of real importance on the program was the declamatory con- test in which the contestants from our class, Marion Blanchard, Ann Bjork, Mae John- son, George Logerquist, and Louis Berg made an honorable showing by carrying ofl' first and second places in the high school and entering the district contest. Our class did not lack in athletic spirit, as was proved by the zeal with which the boys entered the sports. We were represented by Wilfred Allard and Theodore Gran in basket ballg Clarence Peterson and Wilfred Allard in football and Wilfred Allard in base ball. This year brought us one step nearer to the time when we would go out and startle the world by our brilliant achievements. SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY The sophomore year started with a rush because we had overcome the trials of the first year and were eager for further honors. This year we retained our former vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, and as our freshman president had dropped from our ranks, we elected Carl Trulson president. We were again represented in athletics by the same men, who had before shown their usual zeal and spirit. Our soph- omore party also proved to be a success, but on the whole this year was quiet and un- eventful, not because we were lacking in ambition, for we were only saving our strength for the glorious and ideal year which was to follow. JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Our junior year started out with much more enthusiasm than the first two. As we were saving our strength for this eventful junior year and we did not exaggerate it in the least. The achievements of the class of '26 were so numerous that we will mention only a few of them. The most important was that this class possessed the .gi 22 Ig..

f -H '- rf' 1' 55 E- M Y' eff- if? 3- ' N ' A power and initiative to put out an Annual, the first ever put out by the P. H. S. Among the large number of students of this class we selected the most talented for the Annual staff. This Annual could be favorably compared with the Annuals put out by other schools in Northern Wisconsin. The Junior Prom has always been regarded with mild enthusiasm, but with the invincible class of '26 it was completely put over with a bang. Our beautifully decorated hall brought forth many exclamations of delight and we were assured by many people that it was the most beautiful and best managed Prom ever given by the juniors of P. H. S. We kept our usual pace in both athletics and declama- tory work. Anna Bjork and Mae Johnson got first and second places in declamatory contestg and Glen Sivertsen and Louis Berg won in Oratory. We certainly cannot for- get the officers who piloted us through such a successful year and they are-Ernest Kuse, presidentg George Logerquist, vice president, and Mae Johnson, secretary and treasurer. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY We entered this year with gay hearts but were sorry to think that this was to be our last year in the Phillips High School, that we were to enjoy with our class mates. To lead us to the final stepping stone of success we chose the following valiant leaders: president, Glen Sivertsen, vice president, Theodore Gran, secretary and treasurer, Fern Hanson. Our beautiful class rings which we had ordered in our junior year arrived early in the year. As this year we had decided to leave the making of the Annual to the juniors, by the suggestion of Glen Sivertsen we took up the work of editing the school news in The Bee under the title of The Tattler . The following people were chosen: Glen Sivertsen, who later resigned and appointed Ernest Kuse in his place, Jennie Elg- land, Fern Hanson, and Henry Landa. This was the banner year for the debaters of our class. They showed their talent in debating and won a series of debates held with differ- ent schools. Our boys also set a good example for the other stfudents to follow by the spirit with which they entered the athletic field. Four years we have been among you, And we have enjoyed it too But now our duty calls us And we must say adieu. Gilman ljirnpherg 615259 This is station P. H.
