THE TATTLER Senior Class ReDort JL After three years of steady progress, twenty-five members of the class of Nineteen Hundred Twenty- three enrolled to receive the honors that they had earned before, and would earn during this, their last and most successful year. Three members of the class were elected to student body offices. Heber Sharp was cho- sen president, John Bauer, vice president and reporter, and at the second semester election Emory Soule was elected vice-president. At the Armistice party it was decided to elect an Armistice Queen and, of course, the Seniors won by several thousand votes. The Senior candidate was Ruth Bean. These political victories were followed by a series of demonstrations of the Senior’s athletic superiority. The Seniors were well represented on the football team by Captain Heber Sharp, John Bauer, Frank Soule. Lloyd Ferney, Delmont White, Emory Soule, Clyde Cox, Lester Mc- Arthur, Reuben Bauer, Jenifer Watson, Warren Davis, and William Upham. Of the eight letter men in basketball, Captain Heber Sharp, John Bauer, Delmont White, Dale King and Brud Henrichs were Seniors. In Interclass athletics they have won anything, from track meet to marble games. Twice they have taken the cup awarded to the winner of the interclass track meet. With such men as Frank Soule, John Bauer, Heber Sharp, Dale King, Delmont White, and liana Simmerly they expect to again capture it along with several places on the school track team. Only the Juniors challenged the Seniors to a basketball game. The challengers were beaten badly. Thru the lack of competent opponents the Seniors were unable to secure a series of interclass basketball games, so they challenged the Juniors to three marble games. Two of the games were won by the Seniors; the other was a tie. If a baseball team is chosen it will undoubtedly consist mainly of Seniors. The activities of this class were not confined to athletics. The class was ably repre sented in the Declamatory contest by Herbert Holcomb in the oratorical, Ruth Bean and Thelma Palmer in the dramatic and Lila Johnson in the humorous. In class averages, the Senior class has held first place during the entire year. The usual question of caps and gowns has been decided by the school board, and as a result, graduation dresses and suits are unnecessary. Class rings were chosen, but pins were bought by those who preferred them. “Nothing But The Truth” has been chosen for the class play. It is a comedy dealing with the experience of a young man who bets that he can tell nothing but the truth for twenty-four hours. With such talent as was in “The Garden of the Shah” and the coaching of Miss Greenheck it is sure to be one of the best class plays ever given in St. Anthony. On April 6. the Juniors entertained the Seniors at the Annual Junior Prom. The Juniors certainly showed them an exceedingly good time. THE CLASS OFFICERS FOR THE YEAR WERE: First Semester Class Advisor ’ Miss Wood President Jenifer Watson Vice President John Bauer Secretary and Treasurer Evelyn Jacobs Second Semester Class Advisor Miss Wood President Clyde Cox Vice President Delmont White Secretary and Treasurer Thera Duflus Pa.r?e Twenty-four

7 HE TATTLER Class Chronicle Chapter I. Now the history of the Class of Twenty-three, of the High School of the City of St. Anthony, County of Fremont. State of Idaho, is in this wise: In the beginning, in the ten-and-ninth year of our Lord, in the ninth month, in the twentieth century, there entered this Land of Learning, sixty and one seekers of knowledge. Some came from the Eighth Grade, where they had for many months been busily engaged m storing their minds with the honey of wisdom; some were green and fresh from a far country; some came from farms, where they had been tillers of the soil; and some were from other halls of instruction. And it came to pass, as they did enter their land, that they were received with wild welcomings and rejoicings by those who it was decreed, should henceforth lead them up the slippery by-ways of knowledge. Likewise it came also to pass that they were received with malicious and diabolical glee by a certain band of wild beings who were called “Sophomores” and who because of their fierce wild taste for Freshmen blocd did pounce upon them daily and nightly, and did cause them to suffer great things and to say in their hearts: “Behold, blessed be the name of Edu ation, for because of it have we endured great torments both of the body and of the mind. Verily have we been martyrs to its great and noble cause!” And as they dwelt long in the land they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants thereof, and their strangeness wore away, and they each became as one among the rest. Now it came to pass that they were foreordained to become leaders and that many members would gain fame. Therefore soon after entering the land they were seized with a strange infirmity which did cause them to act with much fierceness and strangeness of manner, and to grapple and wrestle with their kind in much rage and seething ferocity. Wise men were called and they pronounced it “football.” This disease was allowed to run its natural course, and io, none were killed, and few were seriously injured, whereat there was great rejoicing throughout the land. Leaders they were foreordained to be. Soon after entering the land they showed their ability. “First Honor Student” of the High School was awarded to Clyde Cox. A leader for the govern ng of the land was chosen from their class. Whereat the remaining became jealous and left the meeting in wrath. Eight members played on the football team. Two re eived places of honor on the basketball team. It came to pass, that although it was our first year and we were looked down upon by upper classes and classmen, that Clayton Donahue, one of our entries in the Track Meet, took second honors and was awarded the silver medal. It was his athletic ability that put the Freshmen into the third place and above the socially inclined and snobbish Juniors. Chapter II Now it came to pass at the beginning of the second year that a new band of youths did come up from the adjoining territory, and the Class of three and twenty, in the new dignity of its promotion, remembered the days of its own greenness, and as the Sopho- mores of their day had done unto them, even so did they do unto these new Freshmen, and did show no mercy unto their sufferings, and no heed unto their lamentations until all were bruised and fuff of much sorrow. And as it was the first, their Class again showed their superiority over all others, and pgain Ill ' s class was hciicred by the election of two members for officers in the Student Body. Only the best could suffice so accordingly they looked to us. It came to pass that the coveted silver loving cup, awarded to the class highest in points in the Track Meet, Page Twenty-five
