T. C. H. S. 19 2 8 THE ECHO SENIOR CLASS HISTORY A REALISTIC DRAMA In Four Acts Time: September, 1924-May, 1928. Place: Tremont Community High School. Synopsis: Act I: Freshman Act III: Junior Act II: Sophomore Act IV: Senior ACT I The curtain rises upon a group of nineteen little Freshies, many of whom have gone through the Tremont Grade School together, and all of whom are eagerlv anticipating, yet fearing, the ordeals of high school. The next scene shows a class meeting, at which the Freshmen organize with the following officers: Raymond Hodgson, president: Junious May, vice-presi- dent : Lucille Harmon, secretary-treasurer. Miss Kirkwood is our class advisor. The first dreaded ordeal arrives in the form of an initiation party staged by the Sophomores. A fine reception has been planned but the Freshies survive sufficiently to enjoy the social time which follows. A few weeks later we return the party to the upperclassmen. That the Freshies are a fun-loving group with social aspirations is further evidenced by the weiner roast held on a cool, snappy fall evening (and the never- to-be-forgotten ride in Lucille’s truck), and the backward, hardtime party held on Valentine day. Raymond Hodgson. Raymond Thomas and Junious May become members of the baseball team. Raymond Hodgson makes the first squad in basket ball and promises to develop into a fine player. We are represented by the following members in the preliminaries in the spring: Arnold, Leonard and Virginia in declamation; Junious in oration; Alice and Lillis in vocal. Alice and Leonard receive first places and represent Tremont in the County Meet where Leonard wins third place. ACT II The curtain again rises, but this time upon twenty Sophomores. Raymond Thomas is not to be with us again, but we welcome two new members into our ranks—Leslie Maurer and Raymond Riggenbach. Miss Kirkwood is again our advisor. Our officers for the year are: Leonard Unsicker. president; Viola Storrer, vice-president; Virginia May, secretary-treasurer. How sweet is our revenge when an opportunity comes to initiate the Freshmen into the mysteries of high school life! We are proud of the active part which our class takes in school activities. Virginia, Alice, Leonard, Junious and Arnold become members of the first de- bating teams in the history of the high school. Mary, Arnold, Junious. Lillis and Alice represent us in the literary and musical contests. We are especially proud of the record made in the various contests. At the State District Meet in East Peoria, Lillis wins first in soprano, Alice third in contralto, Arnold first in oration and Leonard third in declamation. Arnold and Lillis represent us in the State finals at Normal. In the Bradley Interscholastic Alice wins second. Page fifteen
