THE T A T T L E R Senior Glass Report As the end of the year draws to a close the fact is brought more strongly to our minds that this, 1922. is the last year of our high school career. This year has been one of success for the Seniors in every way. Our number of graduates was increased by two Juniors, making a total of 29 mem- bers, the largest class ever graduated from the St. Anthony High School. We have been well represented in athletics, with such athletes as Francis Armstrong, Kenneth Rodecker, Raymond Rosenlof. Sidney Yager, Elmer Kershaw and Milton Meredith in the football team, which made it the success it was. Our two hoop stars, Francis A. and Raymond R-. were unsurpassed as players on the basketball floor. In the girls’ series of interclass games, our superiority over the other classes was dem- onstrated by winning the scheduled games played. Katherine Buster was captain, Hazel Blevins and Barbara Henrichs were forwards, Mabel Woodfield, sub forward; Irma Stod- dard, center; Melva Bean and Reva Thompson, guards. On the school team, Barbara, Melva and Katherine displayed their ability as basketball players. Our class is now forging ahead in baseball. We have won all the class games played. We mention with pride the Seniors represented in baseball, Sidney Yager, Francis Arm- strong and Kenneth Rodecker. In the track meet we have never ranked first nor last, having ranked third as Fresh- men and second as Sophomores and .Juniors. However, we expect to carry all honors in the coming track meet. The Seniors being very original, decided to give a program on March 17- Beyond a doubt it was the biggest success in programs of the school year. Toward the last of March, room ten was occupied by the Seniors for a class meeting to discuss problems of vital importance. Questions were discussed, both pro and con, hot and heavy, but caps and gowns, rings and pins. However, the question of rings and pins was peacefully settled by choice, part taking pins and part taking rings. But as to the matter of caps and gowns, our friends, The School Board,” had kindly settled any disputes whatever over those ancient relics, saying that beyond a doubt we must wear them. Betty’s Last Bet” was chosen as the class play, and with such talent as we have, promises to be a success. In the Local Contest, our elocutionary ability exceeded all others this year, having won first place in oratory by Mark Ellingson and first place in dramatics by Irma Stoddard. A brilliant entertainment was given the Seniors by the Juniors on April 7, the “Junior From.” We highly compliment the Juniors for the delightful evening. The honors of the class go to Gladys Snell, a talented student, as Valedictorian, and Kenneth Rodecker. a brilliant, all-’round sport, as Salutatorian.

THE T A T T L E R History of Glass of 1922 Four years ago our class of about fifty members entered High .School, as green as any Freshman class ever was. We must certainly have been amusing to the faculty and upper classmen, and it is not surprising. Anyone who has ever seen a group of small children troop into their room on the first day of school, ever so frightened, will realize just how we looked — in fact, how every Freshman class looked and will look till the end of time. When I look back now, I am surprised at the change Yet it should not be surprising, for in the life of everyone a change is inevitable and mere especially in school life, and our 1 greenness soon became not the indication of ignorance but, as the greenness of a tree, that of maturity, intellectual maturity To prove this and show our utter disregard for the jibes of the other classes we adopted green and white as our class colors. We have always taken honors from the rest of the school in debating, declamation and athletics. Our Sophomore year was a great success in all lines. We were entertained at a banquet for winning the inter-class basketball games, and we also won several places in declamation. Our Junior year showed that we were still progressing. The High School basketball team was composed mainly of Juniors. Donald Lloyd, our orator, won second place in the state oratorical contest. We must admit that in armory ball, our girls ran up against a difficult proposition, but as we cannot have everything, we feel it is no disgrace to have | lost this one time. All success is good for no one and it is only bv overcoming adversity that progress can be assured, and so we decided to do better next year. In our Senior year our ranks were somewhat depleted, as several of our class-mates left for other schools, but through it all we have a graduation class of twenty-nine- Naturally, as Seniors, we feel this to be our best year and we are taking a more prom- inent part in the activities of the High School. This is the largest, and, we are sure, the best class that has ever graduated from the St. Anthony High School, and though the work has not been easy and the successes have been attained only through persistent and diligent application, we hate to leave the High School. We have tried to the best of our ability to deserve our success, and we believe: “ ’Tis not in mortals to command success; But we’ll do more, dear classmates, we’ll deserve it.” B.
