Che Iuninrs The class of 1919 made its debut in- to the mysteries of High School life in the fall of 1914. The enrollment of the class at that time was: Naomi Smith, now of Astoria, Doris Haley, still with us, Julia Haney, Portland, Ore., Pearl Anderson, graduated this year, Nellie Carle, last seen in Astoria, Mae Hansberry, Astoria, Rupert Anderson, Washington High, Portland, Ore., Clifford Rice, Canadian Army, Joseph Pawson, shipyard, Portland, Wm. Price, still with us, Wm. Olson, present, Forest Larson, Selnes Wheatley, Frank Parker, here. Of the above, we have Wm. Price, Wm. Olson, Frank Parker and Doris Haley left. Elizabeth Honkanen has worked hard and caught up with us. Pearl Anderson is still in school, but got in a hurry and is leaving us be- hind. Wm. Price is a natty little fellow end is the most conspicuous member on account of his gaudy, golden hair. His nickname is Norway. He is fond of the ladies, is a jazz artist, plays a ukalelie in the moonlight and studies? English IV, Physics, Economics, Pen- manship, and sometimes typewrites. Doris Haley is a charming lass of about fifteen, has dark curly hair, lots of beaus, (mostly soldiers,) a wonder- ful voice, and a mysterious ring. We .call her Slim, Slender, Cutie, or Cur- ly Locks, while she studies English IV, Economics, Typewriting and Bookkeeping. Betty Honkanen is the cutest girl in the school, a blond, and plays the pi- ano. We don’t have any nicknames for her, but sweet things, as she only played hookey once in her life, and we feel sorry for her. She studies English II, Geometry II, Latin II, and Penmanship. Frank Parker is also one of the cel- ebrities of the class of 1919. His num- erous vocations while out of school, range from making a noise in the In- dependent Band, to tripping the light fantastic at the new Bungalow dance hall. While in school, his vocations, other than getting his lessons, consist of rooting for Henry George, and tor- menting Pearl Anderson. The lessons he is expected to get are in English IV, Econonomics, Physics and Solid Geometry. Wm. Olson is the most dangerous young man in the school. We call him Abdullah Khan or the Terrible Swede. Khan milks two camels ey- ery night before breakfast, is a favor- ite with the ladies. His dark features and jet black hair go to show the years he spent on the burning sands of the Sahara. He has a poet’s soul, and studies English IV, Econonomics, Solid Geometry, Physics and occasion- ally Typewriting. Our class colors are Orange and Black. Our class yell is “Kill the Kaiser!” Our class song ‘‘We won’t be home until morning.” Our class officers—unelected. ——W. (Py 79.

Che Saphomores The class of 1920, after a short stay in temporary quarters entered the new Union High School with a membership of eleven —six girls: Elvera Miller, Dagny Oen, Blanch Ruthrauff, Aster Moore, Nita Olson and Tressa Cobine; and five boys: Leonard Peeler, Rod- erick Anthony, Edward Sawrey, An- thony Bain, and William Spear. During the year members of the class took active part in both physical and literary contests and Leonard Peeler, Edward Sawrey and Roderick Anthony were all members of the bas- ket ball team, while Leonard Peeler was one of the two chosen for the de- bating team. William Spear, our emi- nent Latin orator, presented a large pennant to the school from our class, and Nita Olson, Aster Moore, Edward Sawrey and Leonard Peeler took part in the declamatory contest, the latter carrying off second prize. We were the first class to spend our days within the walls of the new build- ing and this is an account of the start we made. During the year William Spear moved to Spokane, and Geneva Cryder- man entered school here in our class. At the beginning of t his year only six of the original class registered: Elvera Miller, Dagny Owen, Geneva Cryderman, Aster Moore, Teresa Cob- ine and Anthony Bain. However, Arita Sharp, who had been a resident here during the summer, took her stand with 1920. We have furnished one editor-in- chief and one assistant editor for the Sea Breeze; every member of our class belongs to the Junior Red Cross, and Arita Sharp ‘s president of the War Savings Society. Some time ago we had an addition to 1920 in the form of Howard Rum- mell, from W. H. S., Portland. But, sad to relate, two have deserted us— Dagney Oen and Tressa Cobine—leav- ing just six in the class of 1920. A, M., ’20.
