0935- M1315 Silas S -il? SENIOR CLASS HISTORY T was in September, 1912, that We began our eventful career as the 1916 class of Reno High School. We soon began to look forward with the other classes to the occupation of the present building, which was then nearly com-pleted. In December this important event took place, and We soon became accustomed to our new surroundings. We were fittingly initiated by the Soph- omores, with the result that some of us had the rather dubious pleasure of a night in the graveyard. The re- maining part of the year was rather uneventful, except for the entering of the first mid year freshman, who came somewhat too late to be a very great help to us. The next year we came back ready to play the role of the conquering Sophomores, but being opposed by two classes, found it necessary to give up after a hard fight against overwhelming odds. On St. Valentines night, We gave the famous Sophomore Dance, ,1'WhiCh has never been eclipsed by any similar event lb the gymnasium- The hall was prettily decorated by the use of St Valentine, and one-steps held full sway until a late hour. As Juniors we began to exert more influence over the school at large, and also helped to install the pres- ent system of student government. An important hap- pening of this year was the trip to Carson, which was thoroughly, enjoyed by all. It is needless to tell here what has been done this year, as a glance through the other pages of this book will accomplish that. We are giving our best efforts to the Microcosm, in the hope that it will make our class long remembered in the annals of the school- M. H.
