Long hours in the night their council fires burned; long hours they gave to relieve the suffering of their stricken warriors, serving always the needs of those who rode on the open trail. A TRIBUTE rJ'o those men and women who have taught us to divine and follow the hidden trail to success, who have taught us a standard of citizenship worthy of the winners of the West, who through weary hours of the day and night have kept the faith that we might emerge better men and women, the Class of 1928 pauses to pay this small tribute. Years will pass, and we shall go forth to apply the lessons they have sought to teach; returning, we shall find them as al ways, ready to give that counsel and sympathy which has kept us courageous, sorrowful over our failures, rejoicing over our successes.

Here we get all news, both good and A had sometimes white excuses and very often blue ones. To many it is the home of blasted hopes. But even so we all respect and honor our office and office force. The clerk is of course next to the principal in importance, in all school work. For three and a half years Dorothy Simpson has been our clerk, hut she is now working at the C. B. Q. R. R. Her place is being ably filled by our new assistant. Etta Tune. She is assisted by students who are particularly interested in this work. We are all thankful to Mr. Marshall for his never-ending patience and willingness to help the students whenever they come to the office for advice. THIRTY 1928 cniors JHE old warriors felt the spell of the West, and pitched their camp in the shadow of the mighty Big Horns. They roamed the plains, fought their battles bravely, and departed over the “out trail.” Is it not possible that they gave a last look of regret at the scenes which were theirs no longer? THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '28 TN the fall of ’24 a large group of Indians entered into their second school for training as tribesmen. They chose Harold O'Brien as Big Chief: Jim Rennie, Assistant Chief: Doris McNeil. Scrilw; and Henrietta Brown. Wampum Bearer. Grace Barbour and Art Sandusky were chosen to represent them at the Council Fire of all the tribes. Miss Anderson was chosen as the medicine man for the time of training. Lucile Patterson was sent to Laramie to represent them there and won second on the piano. All during the first year of training, this tribe did their best in everything and soon gained the right to enter the Sophomore I ribe for their second year of learning. In the second year of training they were received with a warmer friendship by the older tribes. Harold O’Brien was still their leader, with Lyle Morris helping; Mabel Macy and Grace Barbour, Scribe and Wampum Bearer respectively: Jim Rennie and Doris McNeil, representatives to the large Council Fire. The camp crier was given the news of this tribe by Lucile Patterson, Carolyn Hihaugh. and Wesley Crews. Herbert Rutherford came back with first prize for violin from the State Contest at Laramie. Many of the tribe won applause at the play, “When the Clock Strikes Twelve.” The third year of training found the members of the group advanced to the Junior Tribe, with Perry Leitner, Chief. His assistants were Paul Pond. Assistant Chief. Willisene June. Scribe: and Jim Rennie, Wampum Bearer. The class representatives to the Council l ire were Doris McNeil and Art Sandusky. Many of the tribe worked on the Camp Crier. The first Junior Pep Club won renown; as did the play. “Wedding Bells, with its fine cast chosen from the Junior Tribe. The outstanding event of the year was the Junior-Senior Banquet. The fourth year found them in their last term of training in the Senior Tribe, only tie most fit of the group had survived. Their final goal was graduation. In order to attain this goal they had chosen Paul Pond, Chief; Colvin Brown. Helper; Ruth Benham, Scribe, and Grace Barbour. Wampum Bearer. Lorraine McIntyre and Jim Rennie were elected to the Council Fire; and Harriet Spracklen and Della Ridge became Co-editors-in-chief of the Camp Crier. Bob Tolman further upheld the honor of the tribe by winning the Shcridan-Buffalo Marathon, while William Gonder distinguished himself as a member of the debating team. I he Senior Tribe sent Lucile Patterson. Victor Cetrone, Della Ridge. W illiam Gonder, and Esther Downer, during Laramie Week, to the State Contests. And so this Tribe of 1928 has finished their second school of training under their Medicine Man’s, Miss Anderson's careful and faithful guidance. They are now prepared to take up then-duties in the world as a result of this training. The future does not daunt them and it ma be truthfully said that this Tribe will he successful in the future. 1928 %E== LORRAINE McINTYRE “Lainy” is the despair of her teachers hut she was elected to the Honor Society, Commission (4), was a member of Pep Club (3), Q.

His campfires have grown cold, but his work lives on forever, a lasting memory of his accomplishments. $ The BLUE and GOLD PIONEERS SHERIDAN HIGH is proud of lier pioneers, the Junior class. As in the western traditions the pioneers succeeded the war riors, so in high school history the Juniors have followed closely the Seniors over the fruitful trails of learning. The Juniors graced the new abode of knowledge as the first Freshman class admitted under its shelter. S. H. S. is grateful to the classes of 29-29% for the traditions, traditions of love and loyalty, which they have established in their three years presence here. Traditions make a school beloved and those of the Juniors will bring honor to S. If. S. just as the traditions of the pioneers brought glory and respect to the golden West.

For the first lap “We” chose Jack Ferren. pilot; Clifford Wiberg, assistant pilot; Jean Zimmerman, log keeper; and Elizabeth Hewitt, guard of finance; Ruth Early and Jack Hosburg have represented us on the “Aviators’ Council.” Miss Hanks was our mechanic. “We” landed again at Central where a mixer was given in our honor. Burdened with knowledge and experience we landed for a three months’ rest. When “We” started the second lap of the flight “We” again chose Jack Ferren. pilot; Elizabeth Hewitt, assistant pilot; Charles Reed, log keeper; Bill Horton, financial director. “We” landed later and some of our passengers worked very hard and successfully on a play, ‘The Three Graces” which was given in order to buy sweaters for the Senior football men. The play was a huge success and the sweaters were soon presented. “We” continued our flight after several landings, two of which were in honor of Dorothy Heppner who won medals in the Thrift and Lincoln essay contests. At the beginning of the third lap Charles Reed was chosen pilot; Lyle Kaye, assistant pilot; Neil Storm, log keeper; Alec Barbula, financial director. Near the end of our flight “We” again landed to give a play, “The Boomerang” so that “We” could give a banquet for the passengers of the “Senior.” All the passengers rejoiced when both the boys and girls (of our plane) won the class basket ball championships and Rose Redle won in the Lincoln and Thrift essays. We rejoiced at the success of Lois Williams, Mary Baker, and Rose Redle in debate. “We” of the “Spirit of ’29” look forward with mingled feelings of joy and sorrow to the next and last lap of our flight around the “World of Knowledge.” —Willisene Waisner 1928 CLASS HISTORY OF ’2i)V2 11 was on a January day. cold and drear When the Class of ’29% left grade-school so dear. The leader was John Bentley, loyal and true. With Lucilc Rogers to help him in all he did do. Jim Thompson kept notes of the elass affairs And Ernest Hummel handled the coin with excellent airs. For conference with other delegates Jean Churchill was sent. Miss Whiting, our guide, toward education was bent. Next fall John Bentley took his duty of old. Georgia Herron assisted with courage so bold. Jim Thompson again took the pen in hand. Anna Kulcher, the treasurer, showed grit like sand, Jean Churchill again to the Commission was sent: How successful we were for so little time spent. This year Miss Parsons lifted us up in the air. For some cause or other we’re still up there. And say! I'alk about pep, that’s us you bet. Look at our footballers- ain’t been beat yet. John Bentley can go like a shot from a gun. Jim Thompson gets a touch-down right now, by gum! Red Smith gets angry ami shows his wit Then puts the ball where it’s most sure to fit. Now the Peak of Knowledge is sure in sight For Juniors we are and still in the fight. The season of basket ball is now very near And look at our boys with records so clear. Our class plays are going to make a big hit. The contestants are capable you must admit. Jim Thompson for leader, now open your eyes, Clifford Carroll is handy to answer the whys.

DUDES J IIK Sophomores and the Freshmen have already taken their parts in the formulation of the standards of our high school. They have followed the ideals and the examples established by the upper classmen; they have contributed their share to athletics, dramatics, student publications, and the social life. In a short lime it will be for them to continue the molding of S. H. S. traditions. 1928 C LASS OF '30 THE WILD HORSE ROUND UP TN 1926 there was a bin round-up.

For the first year of their captivity Donald Bullard. Kay Edwards, Howard Elders and Mildred Eikleberry were leading the “bunch. Wallace Johnson acted as “horse-wrangler” (or go-between, if you prefer it) explaining these queer creations to the Commission, who just could not understand such things. It took nine months to break these bronchos so that they were not considered “green” any longer. To do this required very hard “riding on the part of the cowboys (upper-classmen). They did their work well! At the end of nine months a few had dropped out of the “cavvy.” The rest were still “going strong.” however. During this time Edward Birchby. our talented horse, was selected from the bunch to be sent to the Laramie tournament as a race horse. After they had graduated from the “green” class they were turned out on fresh pasture to fatten and be ready for the next big round-up in which they would l c assisting the powers-that be to gather more colts and break them.

Miss McAdams was chosen lor their commander and advisor. After they had started they all met together and elected for captain, Virginia Kutcher, with Ruth Carroll as first mate and Barbara Vickere, keeper of the log and money. Fae Pratt was elected as interpreter. When they entered the harlnir of Welcome, they were entertained by the class of thirty. As this party was so sudden they did not have time to change clothes so they went in their overalls and aprons. Again in September, nineteen hundred and twenty-seven, they met and elected Virginia Kutcher, captain. Barbara Vickere, first mate. Nona Kihben. keeper of the money and Lester Fox, keeper of the log. Fae Pratt was again elected interpreter and John Young was chosen on the Ocksheperida Board. During this time the good ships Freshman ami Sophomore sailed into the Harbor of Friendship and here staged a wholesome and peppy party. They have just recently let down the gang plank ami passed from good ship Freshman to good ship Sophomore. HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ’31 ON the third day of June, nineteen hundred twenty-seven, a group of hoys and girls left the eighth grade. At last they seemed to have reached a milestone on the road to the Promised Land of Education, for they were too wise to learn anymore in the grade schools. After a brief rest, they started on a higher and broader road of education in Sheridan High School. Miss Shepherd was appointed to sponsor tlie class and to load it through the long road ahead. They elected as assistant guides: Edgar Edwards, president; Jewel Reynolds, vice president; Dale Schmidt, secretary; and Benjamin Cook, treasurer. Max Stephenson represented them on the Commission during the first year on the road. At the beginning of the second semester, Florence Thomas was chosen to help him out. Eleanor Godwin represented the class on the Ocksheperida Board as Freshman reporter. There were many trials and difficulties both for the pilgrim students and the teachers, but they finally learned to watch the road ahead instead of the paths at the sides. The upper classmen met them near the beginning of the road and welcomed them with a mixer at Central Gym. After this, the road became a little easier and the new travelers began to make ! etter headway. A few times the class was brought into the limelight by some of its members. Dora Mae Jennings was the only girl to finish the marathon race from Sheridan to Buffalo at Thanksgiving time. Harold Bennett was one of the students chosen to represent Sheridan High School in the National High School Orchestra at Chicago. A month or so later the Freshman A Class reached the first goal by taking the semester examinations. On the third of February the class helped to sponsor a party for the new freshmen travelers. Thus the Freshman A Class goes forward to break a record on the broad highway through Sheridan High. —Art hen iu Morie CLASS OF 3iV2 GREETINGS from the mid-year Class of 31%! There are only forty-nine of us, but though we are small, we hope to be mighty. We are finding our way about quite well and as yet have made no startling blunders, and have caused no searching parties to lie sent out. We have had our class elections, resulting in the following officers: Dorothy Johnson, president; Francis Norcross, vice president; Merman Bondi, secretary; Vendetta James, treasurer. For Commissioner we elected Edward Mcl.in. who we know will be always on the job for our class. Miss Norelius is our class sponsor. VVe were royally entertained Friday evening. February third, at Central Gym by the Freshmen A. Girl Reserves and JHi-Y. The party was a complete success as there was entertainment for all. The usual spectacle of little “ Fresh ies” sitting around the wall, watching the others have a good time, was done away with, and we extend a vote of thanks to our hosts for their kind efforts. We are entering high school with high hopes ami great expectations. VVe have some prominent athletes; several future contestants in piano and violin; a very clever artist and cartoonist; and two prize essay winners for whom we expect more honors. We also have a hoys and girls’ basket hall team that will try to make it interesting later for the Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors. So we hope you will like us and help us in our efforts to make records for dear old S. II. S. -—Dorothy Johnston SIXTY-FIVE 3$ 1928 ' This section completes the story of the classes of Sheridan A High School. Always will they cherish memories—some sad, others happy-of the days at S. II. S., of report card days and a coveted place on the honor roll, of study halls with the faint notes of the hand or glee club echoing from somewhere, of assemblies in tin auditorium with the strains of “S-ll-L-R-1 D-A-N” or “Cowboy Joe’’ arousing spirit for the Buffalo game, of the trials and joys of class plays and minstrels, of picnics among the pines, and—yes. even those of happy hours in the classrooms. Sheridan High School is proud of its classes ami its classes are proud of Sheridan High School. JMPATIENT, tireless, the “bronc” of the western plains defied those who would break his spirit; and always the finish has found him unbeaten, victorious, issuing his challenge from his strong-hold in the hills. SIXTY-NINE FOOTBALL ALEC BARBULA—Captain—Fullback. Fast ami shifty on his feet. Alee was always good for needed yardage on the last down. We lose him this year. LYLE KAYE—End. As the season progressed so did Lyle. He “dumped” many an interference and caused considerable embarrassment to the opposition COLVIN BROWN—Tackle. ‘ColV’ chief delight was to hit and hit hard. His absence next fall will leave a big hole in the forward wall. HAROLD PEARSON Tackle. “Swede” always went into the game seeing “red.” His fight and determination along with a rugged physique will be heard from in college athletics. JAMES THOMPSON Halfback. “Jim” was always in the thick of every game. During the season he developed himself in wonderful style. Next fall will find Jim in his prime. GLADE KILPATRICK—Guard. A man who has the will to do. “Kil” leaves us and he will he missed. TOM BAILEY—Center. “Stonewall” Jackson and Tom Bailey—. It is to he regretted that a man of Tom’s calibre may play only this one season. He was a world of strength in the middle of the line. MANVILLE HUSMAN—Tackle. “Hus” finished his last year in a blaze of glory. He was a unanimous selection of all coaches on the mythical all-state team. JOHN BENTLEY—Quarterback. “Bo Peep’ —the smallest man on the team—served notice by his work of the past season. It is quality and not quantity that counts. EVERETT EDWARDS—Guard. Everett came out for practice one night and discovered that he could just about tear through anything that was human. This was his first year hut we hope not his last. n WALLACE JOHNSON—Tackle. “Wally was finding himself more and more as the season advanced. He will be back again next fall and bis possibilities arc excellent provided the girls will leave “Wally alone. OWEN SMITH—Fullback. A hard plunger and sure ground gainer. “Red was and always will be a threat with his accurate, bullet like power. RAYMOND CALHOUN—Guard. A regular fighting Irishman—“Red has played his last year and his loss will be keenly felt. BEN BENNETT—End. A steady, persistent worker and always rarin' to go. FRANCIS WILLI A MS—End. Small but full of fight—“Red was the chief source of misery for the first string. SEVENTY-TWO — 1928 g? CARL ROGERS—Halfback and Quarterback. ...... Carl came back to hi home town anti did much to boost our football slock. himself a versatile back. He proved RAY EDWARDS—Halfback. Ray found out many things about himself the past season, lie kicks and runs and next fall we hope to see him pass a potential triple threat man. JOHN BEARS Center. Rig. strong and aggressive—it is too bad we lose him. WILLIAM KOSMA End. Big. bad Bill—and that lie was to opposing teams. Bill “found” himself in the middle of tin-season and thereafter was a menace. GREGG WILLIAMS. A fast and hard plunging back. Gregg was always a sure tackier. He will be among those missing next fall. SEVENTY-THREE 3g 1928 OUR COACH A man of decisive speech, and an advocate of clean sportsmanship, and a keen student of football tactics. Coach Rathhun instilled into the team a knowledge and love of the game that will endure throughout many seasons. We hope we may have him again next year. SEASON The gridiron season of 1927 was anticipated with unusual interest. Central Field had been improved by the erection of bleachers, ami enthusiasm ran high in the school and city. The coaching staff was new and about fifty candidates turned out. four of whom were letter men. The team was heavy, averaging about 165 pounds, and had an exceptionally strong line. The season, while not spectacular, was good, our only decisive defeat being by Worland, the fastest Wyoming championship team in many years.

He always came through in a pinch. gij) 1928 SEVENTY -FIVE I HE 1928 cage season was a successful one for S. H. S. There were five old players to start the season, as well as many good new ones. Sheridan had one of the fastest teams in the state ami showed up well in most of the games. The team received more support than in previous years due to the strong team and to the arrangement for larger seating capacity of Central Gym. JIM THOMPSON—Forward. Always on the go—Jimmy was one of the hardest playing athletes Sheridan has ever had. lie will he heard from again next year. RAY EDWARDS- Guard. The tougher the going, the better he likes it if one can judge by his smile. Ilis floor work as running guard has been a great asset to the offensive strength. LYLE KAYE—Guard. With a keen sense of where the opposing offense was to he, Lyle broke up many plays for the basket. Much credit must he given him for the success made by the Blue and Gold this season. JIM RENNIE—Forward. Fast on his feet, a hard fighter and a good shot what more do you want in a basket hall man? This is Jim's last year and he has done splendidly for the school and himself. l BOB TOLMAN—Guard. A steady, consistent and hard worker. Bob was a close follower of the five points of the game and it is to he regretted this year will be his last for the Blue and Gold. DONALD BULLARD Center. Don was not discovered until after the season had started. He has shown wonderful improvement and next year his work in the center circle will he watched. RICHARD ENDICOTT Forward. Dick played bis first varsity season this year and made a fine showing. He will be back again next year. JOHN BENTLEY Forward. A sure shot and always on the hall—his work is to be commended. He will be back for a big season next year.

Critics assert that it was the best exhibition of its kind ever given by girls in Sheridan. The exhibition consisted of marching tactics, apparatus work, Indian club and dumb bell drills and the Virginia Reel. The forming of a blue ami gold S. II. S. was very effective and the climax of the evening program. For the first time the exhibition resembled a circus with its various activities taking place at the same time. Here ami there, and everywhere some feat was being accomplished. Girls were swinging on the rings ami climbing poles; some were on the horse or stall bars, while others were jumping or walking the balance beams. The novelty of the exhibition was an old-fashioned Virginia Reel, with eight or ten groups of dancers all dressed in old-fashioned and rustic costumes. Credit should be given not only to the girls, but to Miss Betty Prendergast for the success of the exhibition. CLASS BASKET BALL GIRLS THE girls’ basket ball tournament of ’28 was won by the Juniors.

Seventy-seven runners formed a block in the street, a motley array, grown men. high school pupils, women, and girls. At twelve o’clock mid-night the gun was fired and they were off. It was a mild night and the ground was covered with snow. Ahead of them lay thirty-eight miles of smooth highway, climbing from an altitude of 3737 feet, over frozen strenuous bleak hills, through pines, along the Big Horn Mountains, following the Lower Piney River. Bob Tolman, a Senior, the only high school boy entry, took the lead about twenty miles emt of town; the ground was frozen, footholds were? hard to obtain, but nevertheless he held his lead by a few miles. At exactly seven o’clock he entered the town of Buffalo, tired, cold and very sleepy. Eleven minutes later, Joe Hill of Buffalo entered. Four hours later. Dora Mae Jennings, a Freshman in Sheridan High, came in. She was the first woman to arrive. Bob won a silver loving cup. presented by the Post-Enterprise—a very beautiful cup and justly won by him. We feel that the Post-Enterprise must be complimented on the feeling of sportsmanship and the widespread interest created in marathon races by this event. We hope that this event will ! e an annual contest from now on. bright fire crackled and sputtered; plans for campaigns were made by Indian, Pioneer and Ranchman. The council fires have witnessed the forming of the destinies of the mighty West.

The Ocksheperida is true to the Indian meaning of its name. “Camp Crier.” for its bi-weekly issues are a record of all activities and news in Sheridan High School. The Ocksheperida is edited by a student staff under the supervision of faculty advisors. The staff is appointed by the advisors and approved by the Commission. The plans for this paper were first brought about in 1908. At this time there was considerable student agitation for the organization of a school paper. A staff and a name for the paper were chosen hut difficulties prevented the appearance of the first edition until 1909. The Ocksheperida appeared as a monthly publication until 1917, since when it has been published every two weeks of the school year, until twelve issues have appeared. The greatest achievement of the Ocksheperida was the edition of the Sheridan Post-Enterprise. March 11. For this purpose a special staff was selected, composed of not only members of the regular staff, but other students of the school as well. Harriet Spracklen and Della Ridge were co-editors of this board. Those who were chosen to aid the regular Ocksheperida board were: Margaret Hamilton, Ruth Early, Geneva Bed well. Lisle Parker. Donald Gwinn, Pauline Delatour, Gladys Connett, Mildred Cook, Marjorie llelvey. Arthur Wagner. Everett Powers. Ruth Benham. Esther Downer. Harold Ulrich. Robert Harnly, Pearl Barrett, Stella McIntyre, Carolyn Settle, Gladys Hanes, Lois Williams, Lawrence Burley, Mercedes Thomas. Thomas Paradise and Edna Johnston. It has been the custom for the past four years for the Ocksheperida to publish an edition of the Post-Enterprise. The Post-Enterprise, except for the mechanical department, was entirely handled by the Ocksheperida board, under the supervision and advice of the daily paper’s staff. In this edition, all the common news was published much in the same way as it ordinarily would be, for it was intended to follow the general system of the regular staff in accumulating and arranging the write-ups. One section of the paper was entirely devoted to the high school. The work in the high school and the different organizations together with many activities which were carried on. was described. Another special edition of the Ocksheperida during the year was the Q. E. Q. edition. The “Ock” board sent Donald Kovacic, managing-editor, to the Rocky Mountain Inter-Scholastic Press Association Conference at Boulder. Colo., November 18. The purpose of this conference is to aid editors in having better school publications. Everything concerning news paper work was discussed and explained. The delegates received much helpful and expert advice. At this conference a newspaper contest was scheduled to take place in the spring. This contest closes March 15. The Ocksheperida is intending to enter the contest. The faculty and students of Sheridan High are alike anxious about and confident of the success of our paper. Sheridan High is fortunate in regard to journalism in two respects. First, that we have a school paper, and second, that it is so capably edited and managed and is so apparently successful. The student body anxiously awaits the bi-weekly appearance of the Ocksheperida. especially since it has been enlarged from a four page to a six page periodical. The entire school is indebted to the staff who labored diligently in behalf of the school, and to the faculty advisors. Miss Van Boskirk, Miss Abbott and Mr. Major, whose faithful superintendence of the work of the staff is largely responsible for the splendid success of the Ocksheperida.

For almost nine months the staff has devoted long hours of earnest effort toward making our year-book a success. Whether or not this has been accomplished is for our readers to judge. Arthur Sandusky, editor, was sent to the second annual convention of the Wyoming Interscholastic Press Association at Laramie, and Lucile Patterson, associate-editor, attended the sixth annual conference of the Rocky Mountain High School Annual Contest at Boulder, Colorado, for the purpose of getting new ideas and expert advice for the publication of the Blue and Gold.

They have received much praise all over the country' and have a wide circulation. At the Sixth Annual Conference of the Rocky Mountain High School Annual Contest held at Boulder. Colorado, under the auspices of the Sigma Delta Chi, a professional Journalistic Fraternity of the University of Colorado, the 1927 Blue and Gold received two blue ribbons. The first was for the best Annual in Division 3, for schools with less than 800 pupils. The other blue ribbon was for the best in Division 3 partially financed by advertising. In tin Scholastic Editor All-American Contest, now held under the auspices of the Department of Journalism of the University of Minnesota, the 1927 Annual received a First Class Honor Rating-Excellent for Public High School with from 700 to 1.299 students. The Department of Journalism published a very detailed Analytical Score Book. From this score book we see that the Annual received all the possible points in the Division Pages; Section Pages: Opening Pages; Album ami Classes; Activities other than Athletics; Organizations; Cover Binding and End Sheets; Paper Stock; and Business Management. This score book shows that from the maximum score of 1.000 points, the 1927 Blue and Gold received 817 points, which is a very good score for a school as small as Sheridan High. 1928 gg EIGHTY-NINE ga The BUIE arJ GOLD THE NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY CHOLARSHIP. leadership, character ami service, are the ideals of the Nati«mal Honor Society. If at any time a deed must he done or a service executed, all that is necessary to have it done and done rightly is to call upon a member of the Honor Society. The Honor Society is a national organization, and all Seniors who are in the upper one-third in scholarship, ami have served the school, are eligible to membership in the society. The sooner one starts to pave the way for membership, the easier the last few miles will be. for the grades gained by one as a Freshman help to get him there, as well as the services one performs and the leadership he shows during his high school career. The Sheridan Chapter of the National Honor Society for Secondary Schools, was started in the spring of ninteen twenty-three. Five per cent of the Senior class is elected to this organization in the last semester of their Junior year, the remaining ten per cent the following year. The emblem of the society is a small gold pin or charm consisting of the torch of knowledge, and the keystone which hears at its base the letters C. S. L. S. representing the four-fold basis of the organization. Following are a few of the various activities that this organization carries on during the year. They give all assistance possible to the green Freshmen coming in at the beginning of each semester. Such as helping them locale their recitation rooms, lockers, and so forth. They usher all visitors that come to the high school. They take full charge of raising Junior Red Cross funds, and assist in the work of the Senior Rod Cross roll. About a month after our much needed Christmas vacation, the members of the organization kept track (for one week) of where and how they disposed of the twenty-four hours in each day. After all of them had submitted reports, an average was taken and the result was alarming. They discovered for the students of S. II. S. that we waste on the average of one hour a day. The record kept by the members included time spent on school work, extracurricular activities, social life, and so forth. In the fall of the year the new members were initialed at a high school assembly where the speaker was one of the alumni of S. II. S„ Maurice Cone, now attorney for Sheridan County. The membership of this year's Honor Society chosen from the class of nineteen twenty-eight are: Arthur Sandusky President. Everett Edwards—Vice President. Della Ridge Secretary. Wilbur Wood Treasurer. Melda Gwinn. Lorraine McIntyre. Lucile Patterson. Grace Barbour. Nellie McConnaughey. Herbert Rutherford. Rachel McManus. Raymond Xullig. Donald Kovacic. Muriel Morgcnwick.

E. Q. This s the thirteenth anniversary of the Q. E. Q. organization. It was organized by Miss Edna Cooper in 1915, and the membership is limited to Senior girls. The Junior girls, who wish to become members, are initiated into it by the Senior girls. The question mark is the symbol of the Q. E. Q. organization; its colors are green and white; and its purpose is to bring all Senior girls together in a band of good fellowship. The principles are: trustworthiness, courtesy, respect, willingness, modesty, physical fitness, cleanli- ness in word and deed, sincerity, loyalty and friendliness. Miss Cooper was the sponsor of the Q. E. Q. from 1915 to 1924 and was succeeded by Miss Yeager, who was the sponsor for one year. Miss Megown has sponsored the Q. E. Q. for the last three years. The Q. E. (,). organization has always been very helpful ami willing to take charge of drives and other work, both for the school ami community. This year the Q. E. 0- has led in many outstanding activities. The girls sold advertisements for the Sheridan Post-Enterprise football edition, for the Armistice Day game. They also sold programs at the games. Two very successful high school parties were sponsored by the Q. E. Q. One was a carnival dance, with the features of the carnival season. A specialty of this dance was the crowning of the “Queen of the Carnival,” Nellie McConnaughey. The other party was a Christmas sunlight dance given in honor of the football boys, cheer leaders and marathon winners. There were specialties at this dance. One was the presentation of miniature candy footballs, megaphones and cones to the guests of honor. Doris McNeil had the role of “Jolly Old St. Nicholas” and was assisted by his wife, which part was well taken by Lenora Green. The picture, “Old Ironsides,” which was presented to the High School by the Q. E. Q. is hanging in the library. The Christmas drive for food for the needy was sponsored by the Q. E. Q. Money and all kinds of eatables were donated. The girls edited a special edition of the Ocksheperida on February 4. A special board of Q. E. Q. members was chosen for this edition. Other activities are to be given during the school year. An event looked forward to is the initiation of the Junior girls. 1928 NINETY-THREE THE BAND j N their attractive uniforms of blue and gold caps and capes, white blouses and trousers. and with instruments gleaming in the sunshine, the S.

It is composed of approximately fifty Senior, Junior and Sophomore lw ys. The Sheridan Club is affiliated with the national organization through the Colorado State Ili-Y. The purpose of this organization is to create, maintain and extend, throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. As expressed in the slogan, the objectives of the organization are. “Clean speech, clean athletics, clean scholarship and clean living.” The Sheridan High School Ili-Y Club was first organized May 17, 1921, by Mr. Homer Hoisington. the local Y. M. C. A. secretary at that time. After Mr. Hoisington had left Sheridan, Mr. E. B. Campbell acted as sponsor of the club until Mr. II. L. Rowe was brought here as the general secretary. Mr. Rowe is an active member of the community, and has been very successful as the leader of the Hi Y. The regular meetings of the club are held every second Wednesday evening, at the various churches. The business program is preceded by a dinner, 'which is served by the ladies of the churches. There is usually a special speaker at each meeting, and the discussions which are carried on prove to be of value ami interest. The special activities of the Ili-Y are to promote and provide special school parties, and work among the young boys. They have had during the past year, a two-day conference held at Story, for the purpose of planning a program to be followed. A two-day skiing party at the Pearson cabin at story was also enjoyed. One of the best entertainments of the year was a joint meeting of the Ili-Y and Girl Reserves. One of the most appreciated events of the year was the banquet held for the Hi-Y boys and their mothers. 1928 GIRL RESERVES HrHE Girl Reserves is a part of the Y. W. C. A. In Sheridan there are two clubs for high school girls, one known as the Freshman Club and the other as the High School Club. Each club has its own cabinet and is independent of the other. Every Monday the High School Club holds a meeting at the Y. W. C. A. Parties and suppers are given every month. The aims of the club are to develop the highest standards of social, physical, intellectual and spiritual living, among the girls of Sheridan High School. Mrs. C. H. Peden, girl’s secretary for the Y. W. C. A., has been responsible for much of the success of the clubs this year.

ONE HUNDRED ONE DEBATE rT HK Sheridan High School debating team was chosen from ten debaters selected from the public speaking class to speak before an assembly in the high school auditorium. The State question for debate was: Resolved that the Philippines should he granted their independence within a period of five years. The affirmative was upheld by Ix is Williams and Jack Hosburg, and the speakers on the negative were Mary Baker and William Gonder. Jack Horton acted as chairman of the debate and as alternate. The team debated before the Lions and Rotary Clubs, which gave them much helpful experience. In a final debate held before an assembly on March 2, William Gonder and Mary Baker were chosen to represent Sheridan High School in debate at the state contest held during the High School Week at the University of Wyoming. Much credit must be given to the debating coach. Miss Van Boskirk, who bus built up our public speaking department to its present high standard. SHEKIDAN HIGH SCHOOL STOCK JUDGING TEAM EVERY year, at the University of Wyoming, there is held a livestock judging contest for students of Vocational Agriculture in the high schools of the State. The winning team in dairy judging is entitled to represent Wyoming in the judging contest for high schools at the National Dairy Show the following fall. The winning team in general judging represents Wyoming at the Western Stock Show in Denver the week following the State contest. This same team is then entitled to represent the State in the High School Vocational Agriculture Contest at the Kansas City Royal Stock Show the following fall. The class in animal production in Sheridan High School spent from two and one-half Jo three months on almost daily slock judging trips in all kinds of weather and over all kinds of roads. There were twenty-seven hoys taking the judging work. An elimination contest was held at the A. K. Craig Ranch and the Ralston Ranch. At this time the five best judges of livestock were selected by scoring fifty points for each class placed and fifty points for reasons given. The five high men were: Lloyd Watson, Bill Horton, Clyde Barrett, Kenneth Zimmerscbied, and Ivan Dickinson. These hoys continued training and the final selection of Watson. Horton, and Barrett was made after a week's concentrated judging. The team made a vrey creditable showing at Laramie; out of twelve teams entered, they took sixth place in what the judges termed the closest contest they had even seen, since there were only forty-nine points difference between the first and eighth teams out of a possible perfect •score of 2250 points. This is the fourth team Sheridan has sent to a State contest. The team was third high in the agronomy contest. Bill Horton third man in corn and potato judging, and Lloyd Watson fifth high in potato judging. Watson and Horton will he eligible to return next year, and with a good running-mate the Sheridan Stock Judging Team should rank high. ONE HUNDRED THREE 1928 THE “S” CLUB r pHE “S” Club was organized in 1922 by Coaches Wilbur Wright and C. G. Howard. It is meant to promote a broader sympathy and understanding among the athletes of the school, and to determine in a measure the policies of S. H. S. athletics. Only those athletes who have won the S” by playing twelve quarters in football and basket ball, or have won a point in the state track meet are eligible. The sponsors of the club this year are Mr. Rathhun. Mr. Erickson, and Mr. W right.

E. (,). at the high school auditorium. September 25. Pan, a boy, part goat, was played by Eleanor Godwin. In his summer days adventures he meets sunbeams, dew-drops, cobwebs, raindrops, ami bees. Pan awakes early and wakes the rest of the world. The sunbeams in their yellow and gold dresses appear and shine on the dewdrops and cobwebs. The yellow, the lavendar and orchid of the cobwebs, ami the dewdrops in their shades of green make a charming picture. A summer shower comes bringing the grey raindrops. At noon the bees lull the world to rest. Again the world stirs. A great storm arises and Pan hides. He mourns to a fallen tree that has always been his friend. The play c loses with a peaceful moonlight scene. The high school orchestra gave a preliminary concert and played for the chorus members. It was unquestionably one of the most artistic programs ever given in Sheridan. ONE HUNDRED SIX 1928 BOOMERANG PRESENTED BY THE JUNIOR CLASS | 'HE students of S. H.

It means a trip to the I niversity of Wyoming, new experiences, new friends, hut most of all tin high honor of being a representative from one’s high school. It also means hard preparatory work; it means the doing of one’s best, in competition with other students, to win the opportunity of being a contestant: and it means more and more hard work even after the opportunity has been achieved. Hut all of this is soon far in the hack-ground, when the thought of the trip and the honor comes to mind. The academic contestants of 1928 included five Seniors and two Juniors. Those of the class of 28 were: Esther Downer, contestant for reading: Della Ridge, shorthand, typing and essay; Lucile Patterson, piano; Victor Cetrone. violin: and William Gonder. debate and oratory. Those of the Junior class were: Mary Baker, contestant for debate; and Dorothy Ileppner. who, when leaving Sheridan, had no mission to worry about, for sin had already won the state prize in the essay sponsored by the Stale Federation of Women’s Clubs. Miss Van Boskirk, the debate coach, chaperoned the group. Superintendent J. J. Early and Mrs. C. II. Patterson. Lucile’s mother, also accompanied the contestants to Laramie. Mr. Early attended many of the basket ball games, the academic contests, and also educational meetings in Laramie and Cheyenne. The Sheridan basket hall team was composed of: Charles Reed, the captain, Donald Bullard. Richard Endicottt, Jimmie Rennie, Lyle Kay. John Bentley, Ray Edwards, and Jim Thompson. Coaches Rathhun and Erickson went with them. The transportation this year for the acadepiic students was much more convenient than that of previous years. Instead of having to change cars ut Sidney. Nebraska, as had been done previously, the Pullman was switched from one train to another, which made it much easier for the contestants, as they were not so tired for the beginning of Laramie week. The basket ball boys left a day before the others, and went by way of Casper. Tournament Week in Laramie was a busy one. There was something going on every minute of the day. In the morning it was debate; in the afternoon, it was music, reading, or orations; and all day. from morning until night, there were basket ball games. It was a week of excitement and thrills and wonderful experiences for high school girls and boys. One by one this year the Sheridan contestants lost out. Each had done his very best and had high hopes of winning for the school at home, but in the game of chance, other towns seemed to hold higher cards. Dorothy Ileppner was our only sure representative, for her essay had already won the award. The last night of Tournament Week, when the shields and cups were awarded, was a scene alw'ays to be remembered. The university gymnasium, which has a seating capacity of ten thousand, was crowded with people, and all eyes were focused on the winners, both basket ball and academic, seated in the middle of the floor. Then the winners names were called, and that of Dorothy Ileppner of Sheridan came fir«t. A thrill of pride ran through all Sheridanitcs present, for although they had lost out in the other contests, they had one representative who went forward to receive a certificate, acknowledging her as the winner of the Federation of Women’s Clubs essay. After that the winners of the different academic contests and the winners in the different basket ball feats were called forward to receive their awards. The last was the silver basket ball presented to Rock Springs by Governor Emerson. It would take pages to tell of the things learned, and of the fun the Sheridan contestants had during Tournament Week. Those pages would be crowded with stories of midnight oil burned; of tears, when shields slipped out of sight; of thrills, when Mr. Early introduced the crowd to Governor Emerson in the state capitol at Cheyenne; of an automobile ride over the city; of fun in learning Pullman etiquette; of dances; of dates; and of many other thrilling ami exciting experiences. Memories of this week will always be bright, never-to-be-forgotten spots in the annals of our school life. ONE HUNDRED Nil 1928 .JUNIOR SPIZZORINKTUM CLUB TO establish further the precedent of a Junior Pep Club, the following girls of the Class of 1929 formed the Spizzorinktum Club: Neil Storm, Dorothy Heppner, Marian Kutcher, Margaret Wren, Dorothy Thomas, Kathleen Dorman, Elizaheth Hewitt, Hutli Early, Florence Pratt. Margaret Young. Wilma Street. Leola Redhair. Rose Redle. Pearl Barrett. Mary Bales. Jerry Belle Tale. Naomi Gambill. Dorothy Hammond, Helen Sol berg, Agnes Morris, Julia Sigler, Frances Davis. Velma Wininger, Estella Cahill. Mildred Ralston. Blanche Brown, Dorothy Robertson, Lena Baker, Vivian Hamilton, Mildred Peril, Ruth Westover, Geneva Bedwell, Lois Williams, Nadine Storm; sponsor, Miss Hanks. “Snappy” costumes were chosen. The purpose of the club was to add pep to all athletic events, and to aid the Junior Class and the school in every possible way. The charter members obtained their membership by selling three dollars worth of tickets for either the first or second football games, and all other Junior girls could be admitted by paying one dollar fee ami by obtaining a majority vote of the club members. Meetings were held monthly with occasional special meetings. Margaret Wren was chosen president; Lena Baker, vice president: Ruth Early, secretary: Lois Williams, treasurer: and Elizaheth Hewitt, yell leader. XT OTHING has added more to the delight and entertainment of the West than the rodeos. They are the most picturesque and dramatic of western activities, for there one gets a glimpse of real life on the plains. Dearest Joan: A DAY I. SC HOOL It seems ages since I have written, hut then you always want all the news about high school. Yes, S. II. S. is still as busy as ever, but we miss seeing your smiling face in the halls. Today has been just like every other day—I was a little late in getting to school and to make matters worse, Grace B. and Dick P. couldn't be dislodged from in front of my locker. As usual Miss Rees had to tell me several times to go to first period classes, as it was after 8:30. I finally arrived at sociology. I certainly do like that class and M. M. A. is such an interesting teacher. She draws such pretty pictures on the board and then it takes you all period to figure out what they are: that way you never have time to fool around in class. We had an assembly between first and second period. I was trying to decide why so many boys have curly hair, so I really don’t remember what it wras about. Evidently the speaker said something about social contact for Miss Anderson asked me if 1 didn’t have plenty of social contact in her class. Do you know what she meant? I saw Dot I), and Helen trying to persuade El wood and Jimmie to take them to the show. Third period Miss McAdams rushed up to me and asked me if I had any control over people with murderous intentions. She told me that Lawrence Burley was trying to inscribe a deacon in a circle. I soon found out that he meant to say decagon, but since M. Me. has ridden a Ford so much her nerves can’t stand any shock at all. Fourth period I spent my time watching Vera W hite and her sailor boy flirt. M iss Abbott and Miss Van have started a campaign to make the boys in their English IV classes keep awake. Miss Abbott says she doesn’t mind their sleeping, but when Jack Austin and Everett Edwards start snoring that disturbs the whole class. The Juniors have started work on the banquet. By the way, who do you suppose will lead the Grand March—Charles Reed is Junior president, but does he have a girl? He’ll have to get some one to help him in the Grand March. Paul is Senior president so of course he and Rita will help. Do you remember how pretty the leaders looked last year?—Perry and Pauline, Art and Gwen from our class? Charles will probably have less trouble than anyone in getting a date. The school is vitally concerned over the Thompson-Churchill case—we are in doubt whether or not they will make up their minds to go together or not: we are though, waiting patiently. Did I ever tell you about our darling southerner—Joe Brown? When she and Allen Floyd quarrel it is like little children fighting. Marian Kutcher is desperately afraid someone will run off with Lawrence, hut then she has several other admirers—why should she worry? Doris and Bob are still the same. I should think that after all the notes they have written, that they would soon reach a decision. As I have told you all of the school news, it is perhaps wise for me to close.

ONE HUNDRED SEVENTEEN 1928 J Bankers ion Gainer i n§ JUNIOR MfMMS ONE HUNDRED EIGHTEEN JUNIOR BANQUET AND PROM MAY 25, 1927 1928 gg The BLUE anj GOLD E PROPHECY OF THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1928 L Big Horn. Wyoming July 9, 1950. My dear Julia: How have you and our blessed brood been getting along since 1 left? Does John still want to stay out until ten? Has Benjamin asked for the car? Don’t let him have it. 1 credit my perfect life to my parents’ denying me that luxury when 1 was young. I hope Shirley Lee’s cold has improved. It feels fine to get back here; the mountain air is wonderful. I rather doubted what this conference was for when I left home, but I find that it i-for the purpose of discussing some means for reforming our modern young people, who seem generally to he degenerating since our day. Since our plane was in good condition, I arrived here at one o’clock, about the same time that Donald Mothersead did. We ate together at a little lunch counter and talked over old times. He has been married since we saw him last and has two daughters in high school. He tells me our old friend Donald Kovacic is securing a divorce from his second wife and is unable to be here on that account. After lunch we went over to the hotel to reserve our rooms for the night. After dinner Lyle Morris and Harry Arnieri came over and spent the evening with us. Lyle has put on a lot of weight since we saw him. lie says he brought Margaret along, but left the children at home in care of the maid, Alice Kieedorff. In spite of his increased weight he looks extremely worried, perhaps due to his unruly children. The next morning everybody was out about sunrise. The meeting began at nine. As we entered the assembly ball, which was built for this purpose, we saw many familiar faces: Doris McNeil, Ix rraine McIntyre, Frances Allen, in men's attire; Agnes Doyle, and several others were talking in a group. I hear Doris is running an old ladies’ home in Acme, and Byron Shackleford is caretaker. We mingled with the crowd and were talking with Harold ami Grace O’Brien, when we heard a slight commotion on one side of the room. Looking that way we saw Perry Leitner and Arthur Sandusky rushing into each other’s arms with tears in their eyes. In a few minutes William Gonder called the meeting to order. By this time everyone was seated ami quiet. After Will bad explained the purpose of this conference, the Reverend Wendell Arnold rose to lead us in prayer, after which we heard Rudolph Loss reverently repeat “Amen” from the back of the room. Arthur Sandusky, in overalls, was on his feet before anyone had time to think. “Ladies and gentlemen,” he said, (in the clear tones of old) “pardon my appearance, but 1 just left my hangar at three this A. M. My wife. Della, and I did not get word of this conference until last night. When we heard there was going to be such an important meeting as this I made no delay in getting here, although Della was unable to leave the children so unexpectedly. In our opinion the modern youth is going to the dogs. Believe me. in my day you didn’t see any sixteen-year-old boys running around getting drunk. And the girls arc just as bad! From my own experience 1 know that most of the plane accidents are caused by drunkenness and reckless flying. This sort of thing must be stopped! It will lead the world to destruction! Della and I are behind any plan that seems adequate to solve this monstrous problem.” By the time Arthur had finished, Lyle Morris had the floor and was heatedly giving his own opinions and backing what Art had said. He had quite a lot to say on the subject, and Fred Bard. Mrs. Kilpatrick, nee Helen Martin, and Joe Pelesky agreed with loud acclamations. Then Herbert Rutherford, a noted philanthropist, rose, but was too excited and confused to give his opinions. About this time 1 saw several women coming through the door, whom I recognized as Blanche Nelson, Rachel McManus, Lydia Pabst and Evelyn Johnson. They are all beginning to show their age on account of the worries of the time. When I see women like them I always thank heaven, Julia, that you were able to keep your youth so well. ONE HUNDRED TWENTY 1928 [§£ Herea bit of gossip for you; you remember Lucile Patterson and Everett Edwards? Well. I saw Lucile here a few minutes ago. She married Everett and has about seven youngsters. She left Everett at home to take care of them because they are all sick with the measles. She says she sees Raymond Zullig and William Ferguson quite often and that they are the most erratic old bachelors she has ever seen. 1 hear Wesley Crews and Louise Savage are married. Clyde Rowe can still talk as he used to. He stood up and began telling us how the divorce and marriage problems were all failures and held the floor so long that Wilbur Wood stood up in the middle of his talk and demanded the floor. Wilbur was pretty radical and when he had finished, Paul Pond jumped up so fast his eyeglasses fell off. Paul is a college professor and he thinks that students an about perfect no matter what they do. As soon as he sat down Milton Campbell rose ami advocated that all children above two years of age should be sent to a government school and be kept there until they were at least eighteen years old. Marie Thomas-Gerhard agreed and added that in those schools the girls should be made to wear uniforms and black cotton stockings. We were interrupted here by the arrival of a telegram for William Gonder from Henrietta Brown, who reminded him that his affectionate, weekly letter had failed to appear and to be sure to write and tell her all the conference news. You can imagine how glad I was, Julia, that they called intermission just then and we flocked outside to the hot-dog stand which was run by Jessie Achenbach and Perry Leitner. Julia. I am not a gossip as you know, you can't help being interested. Mildred into turbulent China, in 1935. and have natives, others, that they were killed in trappers and are seal-hunting in far Alas married and are owners of sheep ranches we didn't get far from home after all. Vi girl twins I have ever seen. but when you meet your old classmates and chums Cook and Lucile Dowling were sent as missionaries not been heard of since. Some say they married riots. Hazel Young and Julia Kumor have married ika; Corrine Lineaweaver and Mary Snodgrass both in Argentina. I think when we settled in Chicago rginia Thomas was at the meeting with the prettiest I noticed Grace Blakesley and Beulah Stone with suit cases marked New York City, and on inquiring, I found that they are travelling saleswomen. After this intermission we reassembled. Hon. James Rennie was the first to speak, saying that these inter-scholastic athletics they now have in schools are detrimental to every phase of school life and detract from interest on studies. John Gale next arose and said that he knew from experience with newsboys of all classes and races, that the children of today do not need reforming, and his wife, Thelma Jeffers, who does settlement work, agreed with him. Lisle Parker interrupted to say that nothing could be done as long as there are marriages, (by the way. Julia. Lisle has been jilted and doesn't believe in marriages), and while society permits vulgar vaudeville acts such as the “Thompson-Jackson Entertainment.” which is very popular all over the States. It seems, Julia, that Marshall Thompson and Betty Thompson, and Carlyle and Clifford Jackson have worked up some clever athletic performance of some sort. The discussion went on for an hour more, when Stewart Smith arose with a fat baby in his arms and moved that the meeting adjourn as he could no longer keep his child quiet. We were all tired so Donald and I went over to our hotel. I forget to tell you that we were staying at the “Susquehanna,” which is the best hotel in this part of the country and is run by a charming Miss Weir, who turned out to be our Dixie. Donald and I went to the roof garden and ordered lemonade along with Jack Austin and Fred Reinke. (If you think 1 am bald you should see how little hair they have). Our lemonade was served by Margaret Rule and Melda Gwinn. who are waitresses in Dixie's hotel. Melda is as young as she ever was. Jack told me a lot of news. Marjorie Kennedy has gone into a convent because Willisene June lured her lover, Willard Catteral. away from her. Harriet Spracklen is up for the murder of her husband, Robert Lynn. It seems that in a fit of temper she killed him because lie refused to cook the meals while she did newspaper work. Mildred Brewer, poor girl, is in Evanston. due to results of a new hair dye prescribed by the Hemlerson-Schlosser Beauty Parlor. While we were talking. Willisene Harrington, in overalls and carrying a dinner-bucket, joined me. She came late because No. 42. of which she is engineer, did not get in until 11 A. M. She told us that Julius and Spencer Wilson were porters on her train. She often meets members of the Class of ’28. Two weeks ago Gladys Connett was going through to the coast, advocating the intermarriage of the yellow and white races, to save the American race. Shortly before ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-ONE 1928 ■ Eg The BUIE an GOLD she had met Eugene Morrow, who had just published his latest book, “Before Adam.” also met Wilma Brownell and Leona Bryce, who were returning from their Mexican schools. She At 12:45 P. M., a concert was put on in the hotel, under the direction of Victor Cetrone. I notice many familiar faces among the players. Two young hoys, sons of Vera White, gave a saxophone duet, after which a toe-dance was given by Florence Small and Ruth Benham. At 1:15 P. M.. we went hack to the meeting. Agnes Doyle Woodhead arose and told the assembly how sorry she was that her husband. Harry, could not come. He is a famous entomologist and is working at present on a noted African hug. However, he had some strong ideas on the subject of the discussion, which she would give for him. I won’t bore you, Julia, with all the details of Agnes’ speech for we know our children are above all this. Carolyn Highhaugh interrupted the meeting just then to get a picture of the group for Thomas McCarthy’s “Herald Examiner.” When we were again settled, Manvillc Husman demanded the floor and gave statistics on the money that is spent by the young people on clothes. He recently bought out Tom Hurst's Haberdashery. After his report, Dorothy I Inch, Muriel Morgenwick, Louise Johnson, and Sophia Sarkowitz left the meeting with bored looks on their faces. Their places were taken by Helen Hohhs and Lenora Green, who had just arrived from their dry ranches up in Montana. They looked rather old and worn. Glancing over the crowd I noticed how very prosperous Glade Kilpatrick and Edward Kirchoff seemed. Lorraine McIntyre ami Jean Adams also showed signs of a wealthy, independent life. I was aroused from my day-dreaming when Grace Barbour. Governor of Wyoming, took the floor, and in a very determined speech said that the youth of today were not half as had as when she was young. She also gave a message from Raymond Calhoun, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Thelma Reynolds, matron of the Wyoming Industrial School, then moved that we adjourn until tomorrow. I know, Julia, you are getting tired of this, hut I am so full of news that I must write it now while it is in my mind. What do you think? Everett Shilling has taken up my opinions and is touring the country for men’s rights. Audrey Goodnow is hostess on the giant Trans-Atlantic dirigible. Robert Tolman. still craving distinction, is world-famous for his stunts as a “human fly.” Poor Clyde Barrett, who was our champion stock judge, is currying horses in the Ringlings’ Circus. Esther Pearson-Shea and her husband James, are touring Sweden, trying to prove to the Americans that George Washington was a Swede. Ivan Dickinson, noted chemist, has just proved to the world that blondes are more fickle than brunettes. While I was sitting on the veranda. John Bears drove up on a bus with some new arrivals for the meeting, among which were Eva Atkinson, Ernestine Henman, and Minnie Rulli. who are the teachers of the famous Americanization School at Dietz. Esther Downer, model, ami Alice James, a noted sculptor, were other new arrivals. Nellie McConnaughcy. famous for her swimming, was with them. I called Nellie over and told her about you and the children. She was the same chatty Nellie. She told me that Pauline Delatour-Vickere, and Myrtle Hansen-Rogers stopped over in Sheridan, and that Glenn was very unhappy, as Pauline had proposed to him on February 29, and he was too bashful to refuse, but Carl was extremely happy. Well, sweetheart, 1 am going to the desk for a stamp, and then—to bed for me. the children “goodnight;” I will drop you another short line tomorrow. Your living husband. Kiss all P. S. Irma Dejarnette has not been heard of since she left on her trip to Mars. 1 also heard that Willis Whittier has made a million in his Woolworth associations.

The Seniors, despite their Distinction Day attire and spirit, felt a chill of apprehension steal over them at the thought of the trail they were soon to venture forth upon. The other classmen enjoyed increased delight at the prospect of entering a new class. “Where, O Where” has long been a tradition in S. H. S. and may it continue to be so. And may the outgoing classes for many years to come sing with fervor the lines so full of meaning and humor. WHERE, 0 W HERE Where. 0 where are the verdant Freshmen?

To take a look I shortly stopped; The flag was floating still. But hold! It was a different one Not the Senior Blue and Red But just as sure as ditching’s fun The Juniors’ flag was there instead. I stopped and looked, and looked again. I scratched my head and stroked my chin. My sight was good, my thought was right. The only course was—“Have A Fight.” For on the bricks was painted fine In tar, the numerals, “twenty-nine.” In three long jumps I reached the door. And rage was written on my face. I topped the stairs with four leaps more; My rising ire increased my pace. There to the lockers, straight I made And climbed up by the handles’ aid. So through the hole out on the roof I grunting heaved my frame aloof, Then grabbed the flag and swiped the tar And turned to make my get-away. When something struck me with a jar Four Juniors standing in my way. I ducked my head to bully through; I swung my fists, and they did too. Somehow I made my way as far As to the third floor, with a jar. I rose to rush for safer grounds; Down came one Junior with a bound; I met him with my left mil out; My face was long, and sour as kraut, 1 swung a right with aim of gore. And plowed my fist in a locker door; Then as he ducked he hit me right. I saw a quickly dimming light; I felt them stumbling over me. Ami heard the Seniors’ jubilee. Then all was quiet, calm and still— 1 awoke with a start in a dreadful chill. The floor was hard in my bed chamber. And the air was as cold as that of December. My room-mate had given me that drastic fall. It was the only way he could wake me at all— “Come on,” he said. “It’s half past eight. You’re sure as the dickens gona be late.” I jumped to mv feet and threw on my clothes. Ran out of doors to look for the school. There stood the old building in solemn repose. It was only a dream; it was April fool. It was wonderful though if it would only last. But the interclass fight is a thing of the past. P. S. If anyone should ask about this change of rhyme Just say that a dream is out of chime. —Lisle Parker L ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-FOUR 1928 LUE anJ GOLD SENIOR DISTINCTION DAY all the days on which students attend school. Senior Distinction Day stands above all as the most exciting and extraordinary. Senior Distinction Day has become a traditional custom in Sheridan High School and is held annually. This year Distinction Day was held on Friday, May 11 and was, to the Seniors, the most eventful and significant day ever spent in S. II. S.; and to the other classmen, it was the most colorful and enjoyable. On this traditional day all Seniors dress in some different or fantastic costumes and come to school. The Senior girls colorfully portrayed the Turks, and the boys successfully imitated the Spanish “caballero.” Tambourines, trinkets, and gaudy head-bands for the girls, and cutlasses, bell-bottom trousers, and drooping red sashes for the boys, transformed the halls of Sheridan High into a fashion-walk of the world. Never before had costuming been done so well as it was by the Seniors of 28. The program for the day was one of increasing surprise and constant action and was well planned and well executed. The Seniors enjoyed a novel and new experience when they went out at 5:30 and partook of an early morning breakfast, with the rising sun as sole spectator of the event. Coming from there they formed a long parade and marched up and down the main street. Such a parade the good citizens of Sheridan had never before witnessed. Cars were banned as being too modern, and as a result, every possible method of conveyance was in evidence here. Vehicles of every imaginable sort--baby buggies, scooters, carriages, roller skates, push-mobiles, hand-cars, were conveying and were being piloted by Seniors, who apparently suffered a momentary loss of dignity. The parade then went to the school where the long-to-be-remembered Distinction Day assembly was held. For once the lower classmen could gaze to their heart’s content upon the worthy Seniors, for they sat up on the stage all decked out in their festive Spanish and Turkish splendor. The features of the assembly were the reading of the Last Will and Testament of the Senior ('lass in which the Juniors fell heir to many valuable things and a great deal of advice, and the reading of the Senior Prophecy in which the seers of Sheridan High foretold the destinies and actions of the members of the Senior ('lass for years to come. Some of the prognostications proved encouraging to the graduates and some seemed to have a dampening effect on the ardor of the ambitious. However, realizing the possibility of error on the part of the seers, the assembly program was concluded with class songs and the song of farewell. Classes took up. but order was sadly lacking when the raids of the Spaniards commenced. Freshmen received much help that day from the wise old Seniors. Classes were dismissed at 2:30 to gather in the auditorium for the annual Senior Distinction Day Sunlight Dance. The high lights of the affair were balloon dances, empty shoe dances and so forth; several novel stunts were given to add to the amusement and good time. ’ Lyle Corey’s orchestra furnished the music for this unusually successful and peppy party. The dance concluded the program and then all went home, cherishing happy memories of Distinction Day. Though the Seniors may be scattered throughout the world by the winds of fortune, they will always think of May 11 of ‘28 as being synonomous with pep, color, excitement. and good, whole-hearted fun. 1928 (gS ONE HUNDRED TLACHE. 5 Abt P tO£LE now itr V e I rr a At the End of the Trail t 1928 ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-SEVEN SOCIAL Many successful parties have been given during the year, including the Q. E. Q. carnival dance given in November. The decorations for this dance were carried out in the autumn colors, with suggestions of the carnival season. The crowning of the queen was the feature event of the evening. Nellie McConnaughey made a very beautiful queen, in her costume of silk and laces. I he bright dresses of the attendants and the charming costumes of the heralds all helped to make a successful evening. All winter long the school enjoys dancing parties, ranging from “hard times affairs” to those for Freshmen inclusively. Most of the organizations of the school sponsor parties of one kind or another.

Carolyn Highhaugh: After taking such a pretty picture it is easy to see why Carolyn was appointed photograph editor. Henrietta Brown: We see that the Senior section editor possessed the winning smile even at this age. Alice James: Behold! Here is one of our artists fine. She appears pleased over some- thing—probably a work of art. Lucile Patterson: We wonder how our associate editor refrained from smiling long enough to have this picture taken. Doris McNeil: Attention please! Here’s our advertising manager howling for notice, a sound argument for beginning young. Alice Ricedorf: My, but the dramatic editor looks comfortable,—strapped in. too, so she can’t fall out. Melda Gwinn: Well, well, where’s the big war. Pete? Really, the picture doesn’t look as if the young lady has literary abilities. Everett Edwards: The boy looks quite bashful but wait until you meet him on the gridiron—then change your tune. , Willisene Harrington: The photographer must have been showing our organization editor u doll or something, for she looks so interested. Betty Thompson: She seems to be trying to hide her literary ability behind a screen of modesty and vines. Perry Leitner and Agnes Doyle: This picture gave all of us quite a shock. We wonder if Pauline will approve of this youthful courtship of Perry’s. Arthur Sandusky: Step right up and meet this noble gentleman, the editor-in-chief himself. At this date Master Sandusky boasted his three years to the world. Marie Thomas: What lovely curls the sweet child has. Marie looks as though she were rea ly to go to a party next door. Raymond Zullig: We see that our business manager is busy counting and arranging his blocks. Be sure they don’t fall.

ONE HUNDRED NINETY-TWO SOPHOMORE CLASS PLAY WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE The important day of Elizabeth Stone’s debut into the social world is marked by an oft-repeated proposal, the dictates of an extraordinary will and a rebellious determination to escape the exactions of society by a flight into the mountains.

Diamond ADVANTAGES OF BEING HANGED On the last morning of your stay as an honored guest of the State, when you are violently sneezing from the soap that inadvertently strayed up your nose while you were washing, an envelope is brought to you. Calming yourself, you open it and read: “The State of Coma urgently requests the honour of your presence as the guest of honor at a private neck-tie party in the State gardens of Sing-Sing-on-the-Hudson, at 6:15 A. M., February first. Nineteen hundred and twenty-eight.” Your never fully realize the esteem in which you are held until you attempt to thank the gentlemen responsible for your invitation, or to convey your regrets on the score of a previous engagement, or to tell of the fact that you don’t get up that early. You are not obliged to accept invitations in France, hut one must always remember that the French are the most courteous and polite people in the world, and would never think of forcing an invitation on one. In America, however, boorishness is a national trait, and it is better for you social standing that you accept the invitation with the uttermost grace, and prove your knowledge of Emily Post’s worthy addition to the literature of the country’. It sometimes happens, however, that the public, with whom you have some prestige, is very desirous of entertaining you. so they plan a private surprise party all for your benefit. In their great haste to welcome you to their cemetery they unconsciously hatter down the walls of your apartments and mistreat your servants. The rest of the party is usually spent in heated discussions as to how it would he best for you to gain admittance to the coveted compartments of the deceased. What result is a showing of their affection for you by crowning you with a halo of rope. But surely we digress. About the greatest advantage hanging could have, would, I suppose lie in the fact that it would rid the world of YOU! Then, were it I that were hanged, it would relieve me of the rest of the world. Thus you have hanging, the solution of all the ills of the universe—the halm for all its trouble and perplexities. m 1928 ONE HUNDRED NINETY-FOUR HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1028 We, the class of ’28, are now in our second year.
