SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In 1920, the Freshmen numbered about 45 pupils. The officers for the year were: John Riley, President: Gif- ford Shipman, Secretary and Treasurerg Edna Kimer- ling, Reporter, and Mr. Gammill, Sponsor. The Senior-Freshman reception at the first of the year, gave the students a spirit of good will and loyalty which they have faithfully kept during their four school years. Maxine Magruder and Calvin Thierfelder were mem- bers ofthe championship basket-ball teams this year, and five of the freshmen were on the second teams. The Sophomore Class of 1921 had an enrollment of40. The school work began in earnest, and soon the follow- ing officers were chosen: Della Hammel, Presidentg Frances Foushee, Vice President: Marjorie Van Lopik, Secretary and Treasurerg Galvin Thierfelder, Reportcrg and Mr. Prescott, Sponsor. ' The class was represented in basket-ball with Thelma Barnhill, MarjorieVan Lopik. Lillian McCann,and Della Hummel on the championship team and Calvin Thierfel- der and Albert Hurst on boys' championship team. In football and track we were also well represented. The enrollment in 1922 was 26. A number of the mem- bers had left school, but the class spirit remained the same and they accomplished much during the year. The officers for the year were: Calvin Thierfelder, presidentg Frances Foushee, Secretary and Treasurer: Thelma Barnhill, Reporter: and Mis: Tufford, Sponsor. There were six Juniors on the Girls' team--Maxine, Thelma, Phyllis, Lillian, Della, and Marjorie. Maxine, Della and Marjorie represented us in Track, and Mar- jorie, Della, Ralph Keating. Ray Butler and Tom Par- fet in Literary. Calvin, Dale, and Ralph K. were on the boys' team and contributed much to track and baseball, as did Fred and Ray. The most thrilling event of the year was Junior-Sen- ior color fight in which the Juniors were fully as vic- torious as the Seniors.

The Junior Play, Brown Eyed Betty , with a cast of twelve characters, was a great success, on account of Miss Tufford's persistent and efficient training. Junior- Senior banquet. at which the Juniors displayed unusual ability in entertaining, was one of the best ever given in Simla High and was the crowning event of the year. The Seniors in 1923 had 27 members, and class officers were chosen with Thelma Barnhill as Presidentg Francis Foushee, Treasurer, Ralph Keating, Secretaryg Calvin Thierfelder, Reporter, and Miss Boyd, Sponsor. The class was deeply grieved by the death of our classmate, Fred Morgan, who will always be remem- bered for his dependability and happy disposition. This year there were four Senior girls on the first team, Marjorie, Thelma, Phyllis, and Della, who helped bring the cup back to Simla where we hope it will remain. The Tattler, edited and published by our class, went into the homes of 400 people every month and was a credit to the class. In track and literary events the class furnished its us- ual number of contestants who won many points for S U.H S. The Class play, Welcome Home Jimmy, under the supervision of Mr. Summers, was a success and fully up to the standard set by former Senior plays. Now that we are leaving the school we sincerely hope that each succeeding class may accomplish and enjoy as much during their four years in S. U. H. S, as has the class of '24,
