Page 14 THE SWASTIKIAN Humor Class Sftstnrij In the autumn of the year 1924, sixty-three Freshmen entered V. H. S. At first everything was strange, but soon they became acquainted with their instructors and classmates. During the first part of February, a meeting was held to organize the class. The following officers were elected: President, Philip Brandon; Vice-President, Margaret Magoteaux; Secretary and Treasurer, Alma Begien. Not being eligible for Glee Club, many of the Freshmen joined the Choral Club, and showed their love for music. The year closed with a picnic at Evergreen Lake, and all present greatly enjoyed themselves. When they again entered school in 1925, they were sorry to find that some of their classmates were no longer with them. However, they pushed ahead with the same pep and again organized. The officers chosen were: President, Philip Brandon; Treasurer, Alma Begien: Secretary, Madge Falknor. Many of the class members joined the Glee Club. A number of Sophomores took part in the operetta. At the end of the school year, the class picnic was held at Edgewater Park. Now we’re 38 Juniors, jollier than ever, with the following leaders: President, Orville Brewer; Vice-President, Martha Grillol; Sec- retary, Joseph Guillozet; Treasurer, Margaret Magoteaux. At first it was decided to publish a newspaper instead of an Annual, then, on reconsideration, we shall follow a custom, and give you, dear reader, this Annual. Staff members were chosen early. Already the Juniors have planned for a reception, to be given early in May. Since 1924 our athletes have improved; now we have wonderful players, of whom any class could be proud. The Juniors wish to express their gratitude to the Faculty members, who have helped them so much all of these years.
