□ X THE SENIOR CLASS Class Prophecy A hurricane in the form of a cowgirl came rushing into town a short time ago. It was Laura Braach just back for a short time from Hollywood where in 1932 she’d landed a job in the film-twisters. She whooped with joy as she shouted to everyone that she meant to become a star, and proved part of her prowess by rolling a cigarette with one hand while she brushed her raven locks out of her eyes with the other. Do you remember that Dyer girl? The one who was going to become a Campfire-girl specialist. Well, she really did and she’s been in it now for. let’s see. about fifteen or twenty years until just recently here she announced her oethrothal to Clifford Bullock after twenty years of courting! Well she’ll make Clifford a nice wife and she will certainly know how to raise her girls! And now I’m thinking of Clifford. He got in good with his future papa-in- law of course, and he’s been helping in the Doctor’s office as apprentice for quite a spell now. Although the sight of blood makes him deathly sick, he’s really going to make good, so Doc. says. He’s located a nice little home-site near the cemetery, so he can look over his field of work frequently, remarking now and then that “so-and-so surely was a tough case, but I almost pulled him through.’’ Ain’t science wonderful? Old Walter, Matthew, was always a horizon chaser. He wrote a little book on his adventures but it hasn’t been as much of a success as it might have been because of spelling and grammar. Well, you can’t say Mrs. Duncan didn’t try. He about drowned trying to cross the Hellespont like the author of the “Royal Road to Romance.” Greatly to his young wife’s surprise and relief he settled down for good a short time ago and got a job as sorting clerk in his father’s store. His wife’s only worry now is to get Matthew to step in and ask the Boss for a raise. Oh, he’ll make it yet. I guess. That Bud Green was kind of a case. He never studied in his high school days ’cause he thought he’d be a farmer and what was the use. He didn't be- come a fanner, but bought up a little barber shop up in Brandon and he’s still operating it with Theresa Walter as a helpmate. She sure turns ’em out beau- tiful. He had a bad case of palsy which sort of cut down his trade for a spell but he came out of it shakingly. In fact his trade came back so fast that he didn’t have time to attend to his owti personal needs so he just let ’em grow. Within a year, as a result of over work and worrying about the new shop across the way. opened up by his old rival, Carl Reissinger, the black hair disappeared and snowy locks followed and at the present time you can’t tell if it’s old Walt Whitman or William Cullen Bryant. But he’s made the cash. Dave Rossiter. not so much himself, just diggin’ around in the hills, pros- pectin’ here and there, workin’ now. loafin’ then, prospering here, failing there, hopeful today, discouraged tomorrow. Not much of an existence but he's satis- fied with it and he’s the only one concerned. He makes enough to pay back his grubstakes and he’s bought a radio and several airplanes—I mean small models. He’s working on how to eliminate the breeziness of them. He never could stand commotion. Several years ago he withdrew to monastical life, but he couldn’t stand it long without the soft bed he was used to. Well, they’re a pretty fair bunch, not a one is down and out. not a one gone up the flume, all touched bed rock and all hit granite , but as I said be- fore. they're a pretty good bunch.

• THE JUNIOR CLASS Class History The junior class has completed a season of successful activities. At a meet- ing in the last of September, the class laid plans for the ensuing year. Mr. Brim was chosen clss advisor and the following officers elected: Donald Dun- can, president; Marguerite Halse, vice-president and Carl Reissinger, secretary- treasurer. Under the guidance of these capable officers and advisor, the class was never without competent leadership. The junior prom, given May 4, was sponsored by the junior class members and their parents and was one of the most delightful events of the season. Florence Tolson, who was voted junior princess by the student body, proved a charming and gracious attendant for the senior queen. Audrey Shafer and Marie Ball represented the junior class in the extem- poraneous speaking contest. Marie Baril also represented the class in the ex- temporaneous essay contest. The juniors have certainly supported the athletics of the Sheridan High school. Ted Schmitt and Donald Duncan each won letters in the boys basket- ball and also played on the baseball team. Donald Duncan also went out for track work. Audrey Shafer served as captain of thhe girls’ basketball team and Florence Tclscn, Marie Foster, Grace Marsh, Alice Rodgers and Charlotte Duncan played cn the team. For two years, ’26 and ’28 the junior girls have won the interclass championship. Two junior girls represented the class in the Glee Club. Florence Tolson, and Marie Baril. Florence Tolson, Marie Baril and Audrey Shafer belong to the Nissaki Camp Fire. All the junior girls are members of the hiking club. In the state scholastic contests, the class was represented by Donald Dun- can in English I and Latin I in 26 and again in Geometry and Latin II in ’27. Of the juniors, Grace Marsh, Marie Foster and Marie Baril did commend- able work in the Curtis Publishing Company’s drive. The juniors purchased their rings and pins in January. 1928. The class has given several candy and food sales this year to swell the class funds. In the Little Theatre contest of ’27, Marie Foster represented the class. Florence Tolscn is the class editor for the Passamari. The junior class has done much to fester school spirit and has generously supported all activities of the school and they wish to thank Mr. Brim for the interest he has taken in their progress.
