THE ECHO, 1926 History of Class of ’28 In glancing over the past two years of our class history, great events stand out. When we first entered school, we were looked upon as typical, pea-green Freshies. The class was soon organized with Miss Kirkwood as class adviser, Raymond Hodgson as president, Junious May, vice-president, and Lucille Harmon, Secretary and Treasurer. During the basketball season, Junious May acted as President. We were summoned to an initiation party given in the gym, dur- ing which we obtained membership in the high school student body. A few weeks later we entertained the high school classes with a party. The eve of February 14 found us having a good time at a Valentine party in the gym. The inter-class tournament did not add to our honor as we receiv- ed fourth place. May 9th was a great day for we were operating a stand on the grounds of the grade county meet in Tremont. After the year of hard study and much progress, we were glad to enjoy summer vacation. The Sophomore class was minus two members, but two new mem- bers came in from Pekin high school, Raymond Riggenbach and Leslie Maurer. We were soon organized with Leonard Unsicker as class presi- dent, Viola Storrer, vice-president, Virginia May, secretary and treas- urer. A few weeks later we gave an initiation party for the Freshmen. Our class staged two games of basketball, losing one and winning one. We again took our place in school activities, being represented by Ray- mond Hodgson, Raymond Riggenbach and Albert Stuber on the bas- ketball team and three boys and two girls on the debating team. In the Literary Society, we are represented with Junious May as vice-presi- dent, and Alice Becker as secretary and treasurer. In the days to come. Tremont will be proud of the noble survivors of the honorable class of ’28. Alice Becker: “I live for those who love me.” Mary Cody: “Trust no future, however pleasant.” Lillis Hinman: “And there were always other things to think of.” Alberta Hodgson: “Without a sound or warning.” Raymond Hodgson: “Who trusts the strength will with the burden grow.” Harold Maurer: “No lark more blithe than he.” Junius May: “People call him a clever man.” Virginia May: “Far greater than any queen am I.” Mildred Pflederer: “With a generous soul and a warm, noble heart.” Raymond Riggenbach: “ ’Tis not for man to trifle.” Viola Storrer: “There are loyal hearts, there are spirits brave.” Albert Stuber: “I am master of my fate.” Arnold Strunk: “In his look there is no fear.” David Taylor: “There is in life no blessing like affection.” Henry Unsicker: “He went about his work.” Leonard Unsicker: “Crowding into one brief morn.” Page Twenty—nine
