Sponsor AS we, the Class of 1930, depart from Washburn High School, we pos- sess a vivid picture of four short years well spent. Although some in our ranks may never again chance to stroll down the hall of McVicar Chapel, they will never forget those pleasant days which were so thoughtfully spent. ln the fall of 1926, on a sultry September day, I heard the distinct notes of the chimes, come as a melodious challenge over the cattle cov- ered hills. Upon further investigation I found that General Porterfield, then in control of the Wasliburn High forces, had sounded an alarm for volunteers. ln response to this call, thirty-two stout young lads and lasses enlisted in these training quarters to help fill the ranks. Under the leadership of Col. Chas. A. Davis our troops were known as fresh- men. After we had secured the necessary equipment and ammunition. we were ready for conflict. Our first battle was a long tiresome struggle, but finally ended in our favor, in the vicinity of Taylorville. It was known as the Battle of Algebra. During the course of the next two years, our ranks were slowly thin- ning, but we had discovered that quality and not quantity makes a set of good warriors. With Lieut. M. C. Crawford 'as field adviser, we gained ground rapidly by successfully defeating our two most dreaded enemies English and Geometry. These conflicts took place near Morgantown and Wilsonville. After what was thought a slight .financial panic in the spring of 1929, we successfully sponsored the junior-senior banquet. ln the fall of 1929 we again assembled, and training in the old barracks was immediately begun. This year we again had a deficiency in num- bers. tSome probably were suffering paper wad wounds of the previous year.j VVith our good commander Mrs. Morgan to lead us through the darkness, we find ourselves victorious in all fields. The storming of The Chimes, and the capture of The Dummy, were two of our most overwhelming victories. But alas! The struggle is ended. The Senior Class of 1930 is victori- ous. Now we go out to conquer the rest of the world. God be with us. 14 0 1 O'1'0'i'0'11-'3'1'0'i'5'1'0'i'9'K'O'K'0'i'0'i'O'i'9'K'9'1'O'1'9'i'0'K'C'i'O'i'0-Z'O-i'G-KWVX-O-KW-i'0 ?
