F. H. S. Opened to admit a rather timid group of students-the present Class of 40. In a few weeks, however, we became used to our surroundings, were surer of ourselves, and we served notice that we were a class that was on its way to the top. As an example of this, we elected Herbert Larsen, President; Harry Benoit, Secretary; and George Davison, Representative. As further proof, we were barely nosed out of hrst place in one of the stunt assemblies, a future crop of varsity athletes turned in creditable performances, and in scholarship we showed that we were definitely on the bright side. Our sophomore year started with a bang. To begin with we again elected Herbert Larsen to lead us, Mary Frances Bates as Secretary, and George Davison as Representative. One of our members was elected yell leader, while another won a place on the varsity football squad. In basketball we had no less than two members on the varsity. A good showing was made on the debate squad, with two sophs gaining places. The llIntellie gentsial, 0f the class came into their own and made up a large percentage of Beta Sigma. Another soph had a large part in Eugene OlNeillls play, Ilef, Which won the State Declamation contest. We were headed at high speed for our junior year. As juniors, our flrst year as upperclassmen, we used to good advantage the things learned in the two previous years. Presiding ofhcer this year was Mac Johnston, Brice Evans was Secretary, and George Davison, Representative. We again had a member on the yell squad, while the llhe-men,, of the class, the athletes, made us more than proud by taking five places on the football squad, six places on the basketball team, and by Winning the interclass track meet. Again We had a good representation in Beta Sigma and debate, and we really went to the top in dramatics. We had a majority of parts in the all-school play, while our junior play, WAS You Like It On Skisf, was rated so highly that we were asked to present it at Sun Valley. Having accomplished all this, we headed for our senior year, confrdent that it would be our biggest and best one yet. Nor were we disappointed. Our year as seniors has been a fitting climax to a glorious high school career. President for this year has again been Mac Johnston; George Davison l has served as Secretary; and the Representatives have been Arlene Smith and John Mills. Two seniors made the yell squad, one as yell king. Our athletes closed their careers in 2 a blaze of glory with nine members on the state championship football team, SlX mem- bers again on the varsity basketball squad. In stunt assemblies, we finished What we had started lway back in our freshman year, by winning both stunts. Our representatlon in scholarship, Citizenship, and debate was far above average: We agaln 'demonstrated our ability in dramatics in the all-school play and in our senlor play, llT1sh,,,' a clever 3 comedy that proved to be a smash hit. We, the Class of ,AlO, leave these achlevements behind us as an outstanding example for future Classes of Twm Falls H1gh School. 19 '- 9 ,. .
