Whatever may be their language nationality or faith all students of the past are heirs together in the heritage of history Therefore the supreme benefit hes in the priceless record, which lt emphaslzes ,and thus enables us to appreciate lts pages Words are fleeting, but what is written remains and whatever successes the mem bers of the 20 Class may achieve, they will never forget the years spent in Stigler High School ,As Freshmen, the Class of 20 was the largest in Hlgh School and consisted of twenty five members It was composed of students who, although sometimes uncouth, were studlous in their task of mastering Latin and Algebra During this term our class was honored by having as representative ln the Senior play, Rita Mitchell The next year only fifteen ofl our number remained Although the Freshle spirit still predomlnated, we were gradually becomlng more accustomed to High School life in which we played a prominent part by wmmg athletic and literary honors The most distinguished of our honors was our falthful aid is winning the lovmg cup in basketball The dawn of the next school term witnessed the enrollment of only eleven of the fifteen Sophomores as Juniors, which by mid-term had decreased to nine, two having taken refuge in the Senior Class. By this time we had become more dignified and sin- cere in our role of work, in which we strove for real quality. Our officers consisted of Alwin Coleman as president and Oma Purser as secretary and treasurer. There were several interesting happenings during the season, the most enjoyable of which was the J unior-Senior picnic in the spring. . It was also during this term that the Juniors entertained the Seniors with a most pleasant social. Now we are Seniors and the faithful nine yet remain. The members of the Nine- teen Twenty Class are Rita Mitchell, Sylvia Burton, Oma Purser, Denton Moore, Irl Trout, Raymond Jones, Alwin Coleman, Fred Prentice and Edwin Stalcup. Fred, Denton, Irl, Alwin and Raymond are all enthusiastic athletic men, but Alwin is especially noted for his oratory? He .is the Editor-in-Chief of the Buffalo and a member of the state debating team. Denton is Class President and Business Manager of the Buffalo . Rita is Class Secretary and Literary Editor of the Buffalo, Oma is Departmental Editor of the Buffalo and a member of the state debating team.
