 HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ?31 In the fall of 1927, a tribe of adventurers known as the Class of ’31 prepared to take off from Grade School Field to explore that wondrous land called High School. Some 80 explorers, divided into two bands, set off at a terrific speed into space to visit and study this planet, hitherto unknown to them. Two powerful air spiders, the Westside and the Eastsine, later called Bowie and Travis, respectively, plowed their way through the ether of examinations, and the occupants placed foot upon the new world for the first time. Upon their arrival they perceived that they were not the first to touch this strange land. Explorers from other lands known as the Classes of '28, ’29, and ’30. respectively, were already there and promptly designated the newcomers as the Freshmen. The able chief of the expedition, John M. Barron, with his trusty lieutenants, Mary Martha Black and Frances Thomas, scon succeeded in establishing a firm foot- ing on this vast planet. The other tribes were quick to perceive the merits of the Freshmen and forced them to serve a term of apprenticeship by obeying the upper classmen’s commands. The Freshman group held its own, however, and joined with the others to subjugate the demons called Mathematics, English, History, and Science. The strongholds of History and Science were effectually des- troyed, but many brave fighters fell before the withering fire of Knglisn and Mathematics, while others died from a brain disease commonly known as laziness. The Freshmen had now advanced to the Sophomore stage and were first commanded by John M. Barron and later by Percy lardy. Their lieutenants were Ruth Smith. Elizabeth Sloop, Jarrett Lightfoot. nd Frances Thomas. 'I he warriors of the Class were fast gaining recog- nition. and several of the members took part in the stage performances known as High School Plays. Such bold tribesmen as Bennie Griffin, Ralph Gomez, and “Popcorn” Boriskie, in collaboration with other daring warriors of the neighboring tribes, fought their tribal battles with in- vading hordes from other High School Planets in the Football and Bas- ketball Contests. Caves of Literary Activities were also explored. In this year two new warriors from the foreign planets of Consolidated and Steep Hollow joined the Class of ’31. They were William Scoates and Raymond Moore. The Class had now become Juniors. In this year the Juniors gave a royal banquet to their departing comrades known as the Junior-Senior
