There were sixty students who started out with us as FYosh. On September 30 we were given a grand initiation (we had to paint the ‘ R ’). Before the second week of school was over, tlva Frosh had elected officers for the year. They were Pete Olson. President; John McNulty, Secretary and Treasurer; Marie Hartt, Class Representative; Frances Holmquist and John Mason, Class Reporters. The inter-class football as played Frosh-Juniors vs. Soph-Seniors and of course the Froah and Juniors won. During the year a very interesting miscellaneous program was given before the assembly. On March 27, the Freshmen gave a dance in the New High School gym. Decorations were in nile green and old rose, the class colors. Music was furnished by the Parco Orchestra and the guests were served with delicious punch. So the class of ’29 successfully completed their first year in R. H. S. All we hope is that we were not as green as the Frosh of this year. No Class Historian has had more advantages than the Sophomore Class for our Sophomore year makes up an important phase in the history of Rawlins High School. (1927-28). We are aware that an efficient organization is needed to make a class a success and much credit is due to the officers of the class in doing so. With Joe Hickey at our head as President we resolved to make the year 1926-27 one never to be forgotten. Other officers were: Pete Olson, vice-president; Frances Holmquist, secretary and treasurer. During this year, of those vTio were claimed Sophomores there were 51 in number. However, new members were added to our class. They were Lois Campbell, Amelia Riley, Jack Frost and Robert Ewers. One of the most notable achievements of the year in the line of athletics was the winning by the Sophomores of second place in the inter-class basketball tournament. Frank Johnson proved a valuable aid and was given a great honor by playing guard on the regular High School team. Frank is well known throughout the school for his ability in playing and we, the Sophomore Class, feel proud to have him as a member. As the years continue, many ambitions may not be reached entirely successful, but it is at least hoped that the standards of the Class of ’29 will never be lowered. Frances Holmquist ’29. Marie Hartt ’29.
