Che Frealunwn The Freshman of the class thet be- gan work in September, 1917, started on their High School life with many members and much enthusiasm. As the weeks went by, however, the stu- dents began to drop out until of the 26 that began at the first of the term we soon had only 16 left. At the middle of the year the new class of Freshmen came in and helped increase our numbers. Those who left were Rhoda Ander- son, Myrtle Button, Gladys Arnold, Edwin Salminen, Onnie Salmeen, Vir- gil Walker, Lillian Hutchinson, Gilbert Fulkerson, Marion Fulkerson, Ruth Be- Lieu, and Edna Fuller. Edna went with her grandparents to Timber, Oregon, while Ruth left for Portland. The others are still in Seaside. Those who are still attending school are Dorothy Johansen, Eva Tyberg, Es- ther Kari, Orville Spath, Mildred Ol- sen, Hazel Reeves, James Miller, Wil- liam Miller, Marie Christensen, Eliza- beth Marsh, Charles Olson, Glen Ste- vens, Leola Ball, Frank Hartman, Inez Stafford, Leonard Hutchinson, Esther Hansberry, Marie Schamberger and Claude Barnes. These are all progressing and we hope they will be back next year. ig, hl. ——90——— FRESHMAN ALPHABET A is for Abernethy which we take to class, B is for Beth Marsh, a dark-eyed lass, C is for Claude, our sergeant at arms, who stands by the door and an- swers alarms, Dis for Dorothy, who Style,” but to other isn’t worth while, likes “Cafe Freshies it E is for Edwin, a dear Freshman lad, who seems very good, but is really quite bad, F is for Freshies—that's us all, who entered in January and last fall, G is for Gilbert, an over-grown boy, to whom Prof. Lovett said he’d give a toy, H is for Hazel, who hates every boy, because her heart was broken by Leroy, | is for Inez, the studious one, who gets all her lessons before joining the fun, J is for James, the giant of the class, who at exams knew he would pass, K is for Kaiser, whom we’re going to lick (say Kids, remember the cran- berries we used to pick?), L is for Prof. Lovett, who loves a joke, M is for Marie, who is usually broke, N is for Nasty, which we never say, and also for order—Oh!

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.
