 x = So p liotnotc—li mam atc- o o The Sophomore and Freshmen classes of 1910 and 1911 were the largest, finest, and most brilliant classes of the High School. Other classes have made this claim, but don’t believe them. This may seem treason to the Juniors and Seniors, hut— We had the best basket ball players in our classes. There was Leta Alcorn and Esther Clause who were so evenly matched that neither could get the better of the other . “Crow” Schalk distinguished himself as center. John Quinlan and John Lynch were not behind in their accomplishments. John Quinlan for “The Grizzly Bear,’ John Lynch for “Flirting.” “Brush’ Mahoney often made his opponent stare into space and wonder where the ball had gone. Walt Smythe and “Nugget” O’Melia were certainly two great little forwards. Will Tierney, Walter Hansen, Lawrence Gunning, Christine Frand-sen, Kitrina Larsen—all Freshmen — 3hocked, surprised and dissapoint-ed the teachers by their 100 per cent marks in their examinations in Algebra. Milly Paulsen was famous for her giggle, while John Ryan kept the class from the “indigo” feeling by his antics and grin. All the rest of both classes were always in for a good time. Space does not permit us to mention each member of our classes, but we don’t have to. They speak for themselves.
