THE ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL Senior Class, History HE history of the class of June 1924, the first class to graduate from the Roosevelt High School, is in this wise: The freshman and part of the sophomore year of the mem- bers of our class were spent either at South High or at some high school out of the city. Dagmar Larson, Esther lVIartinson, and Hazel Nelson came from South High. Edmund Loughran came from the Ames High School in Ames, Iowa, Vera Daly, from the high school in Baudette, Nlinnesotag Ida Ferg, from the high school in VVoodville, VVisconsing Clarence Reamer, from the State Normal Industrial School in Ellendale, North Dakotag and William Blomgren from the high school in Rock- ford, Illinois. VVe did not accomplish much during our Junior year. VVe had a Junior Day, but that did not help our class much as it was for all the juniors. Our history really started, therefore, in our Senior year. It was then that We woke up and organized as a class. YVe elected our class advisors, who are lVIiss Crogan, lVIiss Hayes, and lN'lr. Lundgren. These three advisors have done much for us. IVithout them and their interest, I know we would not have succeeded so well. VVe can never repay them for what they have done. ' The officers of our class are as follows: A VERA DALY ------- President CLARENCE REAMER - Vife-Piegidmf HAZEL NELSON ------ Secretary and Treasurer Our class flower, the daisy, signifies simplicityiand an unafiected air. Our class colors are green and gold, symbolical of youth and pure worth. Fortiter et recte' or Honorably and courageously is our class THONG. VVe seem to have accomplished a great deal during the past year. VVe ordered our class rings in December and got them just before New Year's Day. Wie had our pictures taken in lVIarch at the Hubner Studio and all of us were well pleased with them. IVe have had a few social times together. Just before Christmas we had a party at lNIr. Lundgren's home. I feel free to say that there was no one in the crowd who did not enjoy himself. On January 19, We had 'a sleigh-ride party. After two hours of fun in the sleigh, we went to the home of Dagmar Larson and had oyster stew, coffee, and cake. Each member had the privilege of bringing a guest, so at both parties we had a crowd of about thirty. There were thirteen in our class at that time, but later four of our members dropped out, leaving us only nine. Paar Eighteen
