'I'lIIC VIAASS OF 15321 AS l liI4IFIilXlI'IN CLASS HISTORY The unique history of the celebrated class of 1924 began some fifteen or twenty years ago. Even at this early date, varied talent began to manifest itself. It is said that at six months Dick Smith could beat time with one small rattleg while Ralph Boe's mother knew that he would become a noted high school yell king by the way he practiced at homel After eight years in the grade school a great change occurred one bright September morn. They entered Sumner High School. The first day passed fairly well. Even Vera Schoolcraft ven- tured to ask a Senior girl which room to go to and Eugene Bosworth said if they didn't leave him alone he would tell his mother . But it didn't take long to get acustomed to the ways of the Freshmen. When they returned the next fall there seemed to be a slight swelling about the head and chest. Some of the brave members of the class like Dean Taylor even turned out for athletics. There were thrills in the air as they entered upon the third episode of their scholastic career. Their diligent study and obedient servitude had gained for them entrance to the realm of the upper classmen. They were Juniors and immediately began to exercise their rights as such. When they became Seniors they even ventured to refer to their teachers by their first names. It was not uncommon to hear the Seniors talking Efiiie, Bobby, or Henry. T1f'f'n1J fu 1
