At last we have reached it. Many have dropped by the wayside in our progress from the first grade to the senior class. On the other hand we have made several additions to the class at various times. But finally, we are leaving school life for life's school. We never have been regarded as much of a class, in fact during our first years in high school we were looked down upon as being a very peculiar assortment of personages. We claim however to have just as much P. H. S. spirit as any class has ever had. In the too short span of four years we have done all we could to further the literary, athletic, and social interests of the school. Although we do not claim to be any brighter than any other class and we have undoubtedly pulled just as many boners as the average, still we have managed to hold up our section of the E list at all times. During our short histories we have con- tributed largely to the talent of the Literary Societies. We have always upheld athletics both of inter-class and inter- school variety. We certainly showed the school how to run even if we couldn't spell. All our social events have been unquestionable successes. Who will ever forget them from our first Fresh-Soph reception to the Junior-Senior banquet.. The faculty and school board have always been considerate and thoughtful of us, and let me here thank them in Behalf of the Sixteen of '16 Glen D. Lawrie, Editor-in-Chief.

No, indeed not, in fact that is a misconception on your part. We were never so low as to be called dumb. The trouble was, if there was any trouble, that we had not until this year, reached a class of work far enough ad- vanced to claim our interests. A few of the class have dropped out in the past few years, but others have joined our midst and have been imbued with our original class of seventeen spirit, so we now number fourteen. Though this editor has somehow reached his Junior year, he has not acquired a vocabulary sufficiently stored with complimen- tary adjectives to do this class justice in a description. Are they Athletic? Certainly! Remember the girls' base ball team? And though there are only four boys in the class yet each was a mem- ber of the basket-ball squad. Bright? Accepted without question. We have set a record for the other classes to look up to, for fifty per cent of the class had a mark of E in all of their studies for one month. A record never before equalled. Humorous? Facts woild explain this better than words. Just stand within a block of the school house when the English III class recites. Poetical?I would that my tongue could utter the thoughts that arise in me Since my tongue cannot utter them, I refer you to Mr. E. C. Coble. A Complete Retrospect could be published on the past and present deeds of this class. But if we should publish these facts our word might be doubted, or others might become discouraged of ever achieving such honors and drop out of school. You say we shout our own praise too much? No! If we did not who would? An- other reason primarily we can shout Plano High as loudly as any class in school and though of secondary importance, as it ought to be we can, just as loudly and with just as much good, loyal spirit shout the class of Nineteen Seventeen.

Uhr Jluninr Ollaaa The Junior class, fifteen in number began school in nineteen hundred and five. Fifteen in the first grade and fifteen in the Junior class is a pretty good record, but of course there were sev- eral pupils who joined the class and again several have dropped out. Upon entering high school we went about our studies with happy hearts, and have been the jolliest and most care free class ever since. Being jolly did not lessen our studious zeal. Everyone knows that is true, just notice the names of the Juniors when the E list is put on the board. We expect to keep up our work es- pecially next year when we are seniors. We have all decided to adopt the following motto: Laugh it don't hurt much, so When you're blue and down and out, Come to the Juniors and they'll help you out. SGDIEDHIQM Sfnphnmnrr Ehitnrial What's in a name ? What significance is there in the name, Sophomore? Much more significance than some of the would- be-wise upper classmen seem to realize. Sophomore does not mean silly foolg far from that dear readers, it is merely a shortened form of Sigh-for-more. Sigh-for-more what? Why knowledge of course. Have not we, the Sophomores of the class of nineteen eighteen proved ourselves worthy of our name ? Has not our ardent pursuit of learning-our sighing for more knowledge showed itself repeatedly each month when the grades come out. Which of the four classes in the high school has had the highest average? The Sophomores. What class had more E students during the year than ours? But friends, lest you should begin to think that we have gone to seed mentally, let us pause and note the fact that we know how to have a good time. It would be hard to find a more congenial class of young ladies and gentlemen in any school and we are to be congratulated. In both our Freshman and Sophomore years we have had many social gatherings. One of these good times worthy of note, is the Sophomore-Freshman reception. The Freshies surely remember it and thank up forthe dancing lessons we gave them and before I close just let me say, I think our class is just this way, Not so wise as the Juniors by far, Not half so green as the Freshies are.

Admired Ruth Jones heads the class Whose laughter bright and gay Has cheered our weary, burdened hearts And brightened many a day. Our little Clinton next appears Whose ever ready pen Has written odes that shall be sung, Thruout the days of men. Next, is Merle who is dignified, And studies every day Who is never known to miss a rule, Nor after school to stay. Then Minnie a musician great Who plays the latest airs, Her nimble fingers drive away Dull thoughts and school room caros. Dear Lucille who's working hard And studies all the night, To play, she hasn't any time, To work is her delight. Last, but not least, Mildred comes, The joker of our bunch, T'is she whlles away the time, With jokes just after lunch. This is the class in our school Which is so wonderous wise, It's members stand, or so they think, Exalted to the skies. r I i N X XX ij QNX 2 UX 3 .

But upon entering high school, when the Freshmen was made a prefix to our class and was interpreted by our upper classmen we did not hail it with such apparent delight. Nevertheless, being very conscientious, we tried to do our duty to the interpretation and to act as fresh and green as the name applied. Indeed we had no difii- culty in acting our part for many were the trials and tribulations of the first weeks, and all was so new and strange that we had many, almost unsurmountable difficulties to overcome while the upper classmen looked in amusement that seemed to us much akin to scorn. After two months inventory of our mental capacities our suc- cessors, the sophomores decided to take us into their midst by giv- ing us a reception. We thoroughly appreciated this recognition of our true importance and took heart to let forth the intensified . We had always possessed. Since then it has been our aim to get ideas, new ideas, big ideas, and to let the lessons assigned open up our vision and to pre- pare our minds for the studies we shall take up in the years that follow. It is our wish that this aim may characterize us throughout our high school career so that when our commencement day comes we shall be fitted for life and to its ever increasing duties and problems.

At the start of the year chances for a winning team seemed rather small, but, through the eflicient and thorough coaching of Mr. Tate and Mr. Guy we developed a fairly fast team. We feel proud of the scores because they show the vim and grit with which the boys attacked larger and stronger teams. Another thing for which we feel especially proud is the fact that with the hearty co-operation of the high school students in gen- eral, our Basket Ball team was self supporting, which has never before happened.

Edward Gray Erark Emu With the organization of the Tri-County Athletic Associa- tion, track and field athletics were again introduced into our high school. The Retro goes to press too early to witness any of the real activities of the team, but it can be said that we have an abundance of very good material. Hatch and Fields will take care of the weight events. Henning and VanKirk will run the half mileg Gray and Wildermuth will do the quarterg Lincoln and Field will sprint and also high jump. The broad jump will probably fall to Lincoln and the pole vault to Canniff. The hurdlers are at present unknown, but Lawrie and Canniff will probably hold down those positions. Our first dual meet is with Hinckley High School on May 13th. The Tri-County meet will be held at Sandwich on May 27, 1916. Elhv Uri-Qlnuntg Athlvtir Aaanriatinn Last fall the forming of an association in this part of the state for the pursuance of inter school athletics was much agitat- ed. During the winter Mr. Tate put the proposition to the super- intendents of several of the surrounding schools and on March 25th the representatives of these schools met here and drew up a constitution and by-laws for the Tri-County Athletic Association. There were six schools which were included in the original roll of membership. They are the high schools of Mendota, Somonauk, Sandwich, Hinckley, Yorkville and Plano. A track meet between all of these schools will be held at Sandwich on May 27, 1916. S. as T' 'Q v- Ihr Irnrk Svqnah Edgar Henning William Field, Captain Jerome Wildermuth H. L.

Uhr Eallnmrvn illllanquvrahv On October twenty-ninth, a hallowe'en masquerade was given at the school building for high school pupils, faculty, grade teach- ers and school board. The assembly room was beautifully transformed into a dance hall and dining room. The decorations being, cornstalks, autumn leaves, pumpkins, brownies etc., carried out in hallowe'en colors. There were many varied and unique costumes. After the signal for unmasking was given the ghost of hal1owe'en appeared and very mysteriously related the future of several members of each class, except the Juniors, who, as usual were omitted. This was followed by a solo appropriate to the occasion. The rest of the evening was spent in games and dancing. At a late hour a hallowe'en supper was served in cafeteria style, after which the guests departed, all declaring they had had a delightful time. Viola LaVoy 17 . Uhr Girlz igarig On the twenty-first of September, nineteen hundred and Iifteen, a girl's gathering was held in the assembly room. The girls assembled at half past seven and spent a most enjoyable evening playing games and dancing, later in the evening pop corn and candy were served. Shortly after the party broke up, every one reported a dandy time. Miss Skinner, Miss Moore and Mr. and Mrs. Tate were the chaperones of the evening. FrancesGifford 17 . Uhr Zllrnihnmn Iiirrrptinn The Sophomores gave the freshmen a reception, November twelfth, nineteen hundred and fifteen at the school building. The guests-We freshmen-were taken to the reception hall which was prettily decorated in class colors. Most of the evening was spent in dancing. Of course this was more of a dancing lesson for us, but the sophomores knew as little about dancing as we did. Our best dancing teacher was Mr. Coble. The usual custom of the freshmen reception is hazing the freshies. This was not forgotten at the last reception. The girls were left in peace, but the boys -what few there happened to be- were taken into a dark room, blind folded and introduced to the electrical skeleton. After this we were taken to the laboratory which was very bautifully decorated in freshmen class colors, yellow and white, where an elaborate lunch was served. The haz- ing was not severe enough to scare away our appetites and every- body enjoyed to the utmost the lunch served by the sophomore girls. After lunch each of us was given a class flower, the white rose. We then enjoyed the toasts given by the different members of the two classes. At a late hour, having told the sophomores of the lovely time they had showed us, we departed determined to give next year's freshmen as good a time as we had enjoyed. Gladys Yenerich 19 . Flhe iliurmuvll Hang We, the sophomores shall not soon forget the evening of January twenty-ninth, nineteen hundred sixteen, when we met at the school building to bid farewell to Raymond Gale, who had been one of our classmates for six years. The affair was in the nature of a surprise party and any doubts we might have had as to the success of the surprise quickly vanished when our guest of honor appeared dressed in overalls. The entire evening was one round of pleasure and geyety. Many games were played and Mr. Guy made himself famous by his ability to take the largest bite from a sandwich suspended one foot above the head. In the course of the evening each had his fortune told, and Mr. Tate was greatly relieved to know that his cat would return after a long absence. At ten thirty the girls with the able assistance of Merle Saltz- giver served delicious refreshments in the lower hall. At the close of the party we all wished Raymond happiness in his new Michi- gan home and presented him with a token of remembrance. Ruth C. Jones 18 . fduninr-Svrninr lllvrvpiinn On the evening of May fifth, nineteen hundred sixteen the seniors were the guests of the juniors at the school house for the annual junior-senior reception. The two classes adjourned to the Methodist church to partake of a splendid dinner prepared by the Ladies' Aid Society. Toasts and jokes were given at the tables after which they all adjourned to the assembly room, which was prettily decorated in the senior class colors. Dancing, talking and games claimed the attention of the two classes until a late hour, after which they all departed for their respective homes. Runkrt Ball Eanquvt Captain Gray promised the team a dinner if they would double the score on Yorkville on our fioor. The score was easily doubled and as a result the Basket Ball squad and coaches assembled at J im's home on the evening of March twenty-fourth. Dinner was served at seven o'clock by the host's sister, Miss Dorothy Gray. Dutch proclaimed it to be a most delicious repast and indeed it was. At eight o'clock the boys accompanied Dutch to the gym where he and his sophomore team ended the Basket Ball season by cleaning up the eighth grade. After the game the fellows went back to the Gray home where the rest of the evening was spent in cards and music. As the party broke up every one asserted that they had had a most delightful time and that Jim was an excellent host. High Srhunl Enuriainmrnt On the night of April fourteenth, the High School entertain- ment was given at the Grand Opera House. The purpose of this entertainment was to raise money for the track team. The students displayed their ability before a large and appreciative audience, who we hope, and believe thoroughly enjoyed the pro- gram.

It is one of th best equipped libraries ever established in a city the size of Plano. The list of books is very extensive, touch- ing all the departments of lnstory, science, iiction and art. The librarian, Mrs. Maude Henning, certainly deserves credit for the splendid aid which she gives to the pupils of our public schools.
