Class History On September 8, 1915, Sheridan High School was shaken to its very foundations. On that day it was invaded by a more conglomerate mass of barbarians than ever startled the geese of Rome into cackling wakefulness. This mass consisted of 122 Freshies of the greenest and freshest kind. Not as a conquering army did we come but rather as tho surprised that we had the audacity to show ourselves on this sacred spot of awfulness. Once there, however, we were not to be turned back and in the course of time came to realize that upperclassmen were not as fierce and terrible as was supposed and could be trusted not to pounce upon unsuspecting Freshmen without warning. On September 16, election of officers was held and we as Freshmen elected the following: Glenn Hurd, President; Grace Godwin, Secretary; Gerald Aus- tin, Treasurer; Mr. Pound, Class Teacher, and Dorothy Lamb and Maurice Mills, Commissioners. September 15, 1916, saw 105 Sophomores entering S. H. S. with heads held more erect, especially when a timid Freshie lurked near by, and determination showing itself more plainly. This year not only advanced the courage of the class but class spirit of a more pronounced type appeared. This year, namely, 1916-1917, was, however, a quiet year for us, due, for the most part to the Great War which was being brought closer to our homes. During our Soph year, Martha Becker, Richard Cornell and John Brosius entered our class. For officers, the following were elected: Blanch Logan, President; Walter Kutcher, Vice-President; Grace Godwin, Secretary; Martha Becker, Treasurer; Miss Van Boskirk, Sponsor; Dorothy Lamb and Wendell Haywood, Commissioners. The class colors chosen were old rose and silver. Our Junior year is not to be forgotten. Although some had found the hill too steep, there now' numbered 72. However, during this year there had enrolled a number of new students, Virgil Lahart, Pauline Barnhart, Izetta Lucas, Gertrude Parmelee and Troy Baxter. Many rules and regulations were otherwise adjusted in the course of the year, for the sake of patriotism. Instead of entertaining the departing Seniors with the accustomed banquet, we gave them a play, “Mr. Bob,” and a reception. Those who safely guided the Junior class were: Dorothy Lamb, President; Ludlow Anderson, Vice-President; Maurine Hollo. Secretary; Wendell Haywood, Treasurer; Rita Amend and Walter Kutcher, Commissioners; Miss Cooper, Class Sponsor. The Senior year has been passed most successfully in all respects. Of course, some of our classmates had dropped from the ranks, but there still remained fifty-eight worthy and honorable Seniors, this class being second only in size, that has graduated from S. H. S. During this year Dorothy Cole and Fred Emery enrolled as Seniors in our class. Our class furnished many participants in athletics and other activities, including the Drama League, which was organized during this year. On May 8th our flag of maroon and white with our date of ’19 artistically placed upon it was proudly unfurled over the institution of knowledge know'n as Sheridan High School. It was unchallenged, since previous years have led to peaceful negotiations between classes. A banquet was given to us by the Juniors on May 31st. The Association of Collegiate Alumnae entertained us on May 24th. Our last activity was the annual Senior Class Play. We produced “Miss Somebodyelse,” a four-act play, at the Linden Auditorium. During this year our class was managed by Harold King, President; Maurine Hollo, Vice-President; Mariette Hoag, Secretary; Charles Harker, Treasurer; Miss Hull, Class Sponsor, and Dorothy Whedon and Lyman Brewster, Commissioners. And as all great things must end, so too did the high school career of these fifty-eight Seniors, when on June 13, 1919, this class departed from S. H. S. Page Twenty-Six
