History of First Mid-Year Class $ Rb This class is small but we live up to the proverb, ttlittle but loudiH We are such a remarkable class that it will be best to talk first of individual char- acteristics and then of our qualities as a whole. first one that comes into In mind is Ruth Bsmmert, who has been a member of this class ever since it left the kindergarten. Ruth is not a mathe- matical shark but she certainly Hhands over the goods ' :r as been with us from the pIimeI' up She is our musician and when it comes to ttickling the ivories' she will always take the prize. Eliz abs th Dunstan came heIe from Mississippi and joined our class in the tenth grade Lizzie is the only gill athlete but she makesu up the other girls part for she ha as been captain of the girls' basketball team and has piloted it to continual success. Rolland Lawrence is also a new reeinuit having joined us in the seventh grade. Rolland is a singer, eatoonist, and mathematician, but he intends t specialize in cartooning and designing He is President of our class and also of Editor of the Sea he fi fth member of this famous class is John Rader John came to us from the country school, which can readily be seen by a glance at his feet, he has always done his best and has made very good grades He is a seeond-elass football player, but intends to be a fil'steclass one next year, indulges some- what in track, but has too much Dutch to make any records, excepting, how- ever, the mile. Another one of our new members is Francis Rushing, who annexed hima self when we were in the tenth grade. He is a dl'hatev' of no small skill, an :11 tist and geneial goodw Ol'ikel'. Francis is also a good football player but takes part in no other at tehlt Las ,bu t not least, is Herbert Willard or as his friends call him, HThe Colonel. Herb, who is one of the charter members is very quiet but when e is called upon he can usually give the desired i11fo1mation. The Colonel plays football like a demon and we certainly hopet ttha when he comes back next year he will have gained some weight so that he can play ike tw o III'Inons In his studies he has no favorites but is excellent 1n them all. Some people think that because a class is small it will not have any advantages, but in spite of our fBWHPSS in numberw ehave many goodq uali- ' 1eh give us the advantage 0191 the othms for example 0111 extreme good loolkingness also we, are great students as our report cards and also 0111' teachers, will te sti y. eJ.
