Other officers were: John McNulty, and Frances Holmquist. Our first battle after we had painted our insignia (the “R”) near the fort, was the inter-class football fight; our army combined with the Junior army was successful. Our next victory was the Freshman Program given before the Assembly, then the Freshman Dance. The second year of the Great War came with fifty-four soldiers reporting for battle. Mr. Moyer was the Commanding Officer again; Joe Hickey, the General, and other officers were Pete Olsen, and Frances Holmquist. The successful battles for this year were the inter-class basketball bout—we won second—and the Sophomore Dance. With these successes, the War year of 1927 was ended. 19 28 was ushered in with a flourish by forty-four soldiers, some having quit our army for other armies. This year Joe Hickey was again General. Miss Kaufman was the Commanding Officer, other officers being Everett Gardner, and Cecil Bennett. One of the successful skirmishes was the Junior Program,, given before the Assembly. The Junior Class Play, ‘ Bab,” was the great victory that won means for the also great victory of the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. So end the three first years of Our Great War. We do not know what victories are yet in store for us, but we hope that the last year of the War will be as successful as the first three were, for then we will truly be able to say Our Great Four ears’ War w?as WON by us. M. H.—Army of ’29.

Last Will and Testament of the Class of ’28 Since we, the Senior Class of '28, are about to graduate, leaving the school and the rest of the pupils to get along as best they can without the brightest and most active class ever graduated from this asylum, we consider it about time to write our last will and testament, and hope after we are gone that the testament will not be lost, for what could the rest of the school do without it? Nothing, we fear. First—we command that our testament shall be put in the library in a glass case, so that when some Senior or a lower classman has been caught reading a dime novel in study period he or she may go to the library, and correct themselves (plural because we know there will be more than one.) Second—We bequeath our seats in the assembly to the Class of ’29, and hope that the Juniors do not act up in the seats of the mighty as they did in their own. Third—To the faithful Mr. Moyer, we leave the duty of watching the Sophomores and Freshmen to keep them from chewing gum. We hope he will watch them as closely as he did us—AMEN! Fritz Anderson bequeaths his wonderful singing ability to John Faye. Eileen Striplin leaves her ability to read to George Ekdahl—he needs it. Carl Masters leaves his canary-like voice to Peggy Parry. Elwood Sjolin leaves his modest and retiring manner to John McNulty, for of all the pupils of R. H. S., he needs it most. James Niland leaves his lanky body, and athletic ability to Billy Foster. Speed Hall leaves his Latin for—Someone else to do. Jimmie Cashman leaves his impudent grin and red hair to Roy Nordlund. Roy’s hair needs a little color, dosn’t it, Jimmie?

Margaret Sloss gives her red hair to anyone who wants it—Margaret doesn’t. Fred Travis bequeaths his romancing nature to Archie Hansen. Frances Johnson gives her gay, rollicking ways to Ethel Swranson—put ’em to good use, Ethel! Charles McDermott leaves his gentle disposition and rustic features to Everett Gardner. Babe Lamberson leaves her figure to Charles Carter, for you know Charles isn’t a scream when dressed as a femme. Winston Kirton bequeaths his husky yell to Gwendolyn Doggett. Elsie Larsen leaves her ability as a good hostess to Evelyn Reagor. Wilho Maki leaves his large stature to tiny Arthur Friend. Cecil Wester bequeaths his ability to play the piano to Ella Rasmussen.
