fumor Class pistor? OX the morning of September 10, 1915. the present Junior class flocked through the halls of the building, which was to be the home of our educational selves for the ensuing nine months. Our first surprise came when we tried to ascend the steps three at a time. “Casey soon put a stop to that and gave us to understand that he was lord and master of the build- ing. and that we were to honor and obey him for the remainder of our natural school lives. We soon discovered, however, that lie was just at his proverbial bluffing and bullying of timid and inexperienced Freshmen. e finally reached the assembly ball and found that in our mad rush to be on time we were more than half an hour too early. bile we were discussing the prospects of torture soon to be forced upon us by the Sophomores, a lordly Senior stalked in the door. Oh. what a god-like creature! He never even so much as glanced om way. so insignificant were we in his eyes. After two or three weeks the other classes decided it was time to instill a fear of God and Seniors in our hearts. Although they started out pretty rough on us they soon deemed it wise to let up a little, as they found some promising material among us for both the Girls’ and Hoys’ Basket Ball teams. Ross Carpenter and Klmer Combs represented the “Fresh” on the Boys’ team, and Frankie Burgess and Alma Baer on the Girls’ team. I aking a hint from the other classes we organized and elected Gladys Remington president and Stella Trogler secre- tary-treasurer. Both these young ladies soon surpassed us in mental ability and are to graduate with the class of ’18. Cherry and black were chosen as the Class colors. This year we were under the guidance of Professors Thompson and Baker and the Misses Stukey, Clark and Sutphen. I he next year 191G—we enjoyed the full rights and privil- eges of Sophomores, and pushed our authority to the limit. We especially enjoyed chastising the Freshmen. The faculty this year consisted of Mr. Thompson. Mr. Baker, Miss Stukey, Miss Keller, Miss Clark and Miss Robert. The “Sophs” were repre- sented on the Girls’ Basket Ball team by Alma Baer, Violet Scovill, Frankie Burgess and Gladys Remington; and the Boys’ Basket Ball team by Elmer Combs, Ross Carpenter, and on the Foot Ball team were Elmer Combs, Ross Carpenter, Brackney Harris and John Burroughs. Burroughs acted in the capacity of water boy and substitute. The Sophomores gave a Christmas party for the High School and enjoyed the eats” of another class party to which we had not been invited. September, 191«. saw us entered on the third vear of our High School with furrowed brows and new responsibilities rest- ing upon our shoulders. Several changes had been made in the High School faculty, and this year the faculty consisted of Mr. Thompson, Mr. Muir, Miss Ileisen, Miss Gates, Miss Stukey, Miss Burroughs and Miss McLagan. The Junior boys in the foot ball squad were “Tonv” Eichorn. Walter Hale. Ross Car- penter, John Burroughs and Brackney Harris. The Junior girls on the Basket Ball team were Violet Scovill. Myrna Davis and Alma Baer. It seems almost impossible that the young ladies and gentle- men of the Junior class are the same unsophisticated Fresh- JOHN BURROUGHS.
