T II E iiiuNRiniwm B I S B I L A N I N E T E E X - T W E N T Y History of the Class of 1920 IX the fall of 1916 began the lively career of the first class to have an oppor-. tunity of completing four years' work in “LT” High. They began their good work under the leadership of Miss Smithies, who was then the Latin instructor of this school. Many of this original Freshman class have left the school and made places for those who now make up the greater part of its membership, but the following faithful ones might be called the charter members of the class of 1920: Helen Haggerty. Mildred Jaynes, Marguerite Robinson, Lois Wilde, Theodore Ericksen. Frank Moulton, and Lloyd ye. Within two weeks after starting, the class was organized without a constitution and has proved ever since that such a document is not necessary for the peaceable carrying on of business. In January, 1917. the numlier of students was increased by the entrance of the only mid-year class accepted by L”’ High. The seven who were capable of making up the half year's work covered by those who entered in September and who are at the present with the class are: Helen Baldwin, Lillian Borreson, Dorothy Bowen, Helen Jackson, William Coffman, Francis Colgrove, and Hugo Miller. Dana Durand Iroin this group would also be included had it not been that his parents are temporarily residing in Poland. During this first memorable year the class of 1920 distinguished itself by plunging into dramatics. They gave an elaborate production of the famous court scene from The Merchant of Venice. ’ which would have delighted the heart of W illiam Shakesj)eare himself. In this year the girls started the precedent, which they have maintained throughout their four years, of winning the gymnasium demonstration, and the captain ball tournament. In the second year the class was disappointed in having Miss Smithies leave for Chicago, but they felt duly recompensed in having Miss Inglis take her place as class adviser. In this year the class, after due consideration, had decided to admit some new members, and some of our most prominent memliers appear in that group. Among these are James Bohan, VVinnifred Hughes, Ruth Palm. Elvira Butler, and I’hillis Clemetson. As Sophomores the class distinguished themselves in many ways, and chiefly as the proposers of new ideas. The Junior Red Cross was organized under the leadership of the Sophomores, and in the spring our adviser. Miss Inglis. was chosen captain of the Mountain Ash Troop of (iirl Scouts. At an all-school party, in February, in honor of Mr. Miller, who was then leaving for Camp Dodge to be connected with Psychology Department, the class presented the school with a service flag with a large star in the center representing Mr. Miller's service. The third year started out auspiciously with admission of alx ut fifteen Juniors, including the present editor-in-chief of the Campus Breeze.” Lawrence Paist. and many others. As Juniors several of our members were on the Breeze staff, and most of them were faithful contributors to it. The position of editor-in-chief. which usually goes to a Senior, was held by a Junior, James Bohan. During the year the class continued the precedent established by the former classes, and entertained the 1919 class with a banquet and dance, commonly termed the Junior-Senior, at Alice Shcvlin I fall. W ith Monroe Strickler as president, the class plunged into the worry and flurry of the senior year with a resolution to make the class of 1920 forever remembered in I . H. S. W ith their usual energy for beginning new activities they reorganized the Math Club, under the direction of Mr. Smith, and helped add to the income of the Dramatic Club. Indeed, most of the cast of the Twig o’ Thorn were Senior girls, who helped make the play a success. Their histrionic talent also was given Page Sixteen
