Mary Short Wayzata Shorty” “I steal through life in a very quiet way.” Oddian, Basket Ball, T9-‘22; Glee Club, ’19; Dumb Belles, ‘22; Athletic Association, ’22; Annual Staff. Last Will and Testament of the Class of 1922 We, the Senior Class (namely the class of 1922) of the village of Wayzata, County of Hennepin, State of Minnesota, being first in excellence, and noted for our widespread knowledge, do hereby recognize the fact that our stay in these halls is to be short-lived, and that we are soon to pass out into the great unknown of the future. In recognition of this fact and also of the fact that we have properties that are highly esteemed, and unlimited in their reality, we deem it necessary to make lawful disposal of said properties, common and personal. First—We desire that all our well-loved subjects, and our devoted fellow-students, share with us the sorrow of departing from our wornout friends— the textbooks, such as the Chemistry Manual, or Mr. McCormick’s “Psychology. Second—To the Juniors we leave all our sympathy for the coming year, and also the east end of the room, providing they treat it with respect and reverence as did the honored class before them. Third—To the Sophomores we bequeath our enthusiasm and desire for work, which characterized us throughout the year. Fourth—To the Freshmen, we leave the example of good behavior we have set. Fifth—To Mr. McCormick we bequeath the oncoming generation of Freshmen, because he teaches Psychology and knows how to train undeveloped brains. Sixth—To the Faculty, the right to stand guard in the halls, keep order in the Assembly, and preach the examples, that we, the Seniors, have left them.

1922 LOOKOUT Junior Class History September 2, 1919. What an epochal (lav it was for the brilliant Freshman Class. Forty-five of us there were—of all sizes, shapes, colors, dispositions, and makeups. Our wobbly footsteps were ably guided by Clifford Kysor as president, Florence Paterson as vice-president, and Priscilla Milbert as secretary and treasurer. Our first worry was the Freshman initiation, which in realization was not as bad as in anticipation. The return party we gave was a costume Hallowe’en affair. After the fire, with the rest of the students, we moved to the Congregational church, where we were given that much desired and honored place, the front pews. The year 1920 found us settled for the year in never-to-be-forgotten Town Hall. Out of our class of thirty-three members we picked Florence Paterson as president, Pearl Kreatz as vice-president, and Francis Filiatreau took care of the minutes and the cash. Our Sophomore year was characterized by numerous parties and programs, in which we took a prominent part. Class Day found us again flaunting our colors. Orange and Black. Our Junior year finds us in the new schoolhouse. Our brilliant class has increased to thirty-four members. At our first class meeting we elected Clifford Held to fill the position of presi-dent, Robert Spencer as vice-president, Helen Peck as secretary, and Marie Kxstrom as treasurer. As far as being talented is concerned, the Juniors of ’22 cannot be excelled. We have taken a leading part in all affairs of school life, such as in programs, in story-writing, and in athletics. We are now spending much time on our class play. “Safety First.” which we are certain will reach a high excellence. Next year, we shall be Seniors, and there is absolutely no doubt but that we will be the brightest, most talented, largest, most intellectual and liveliest class that ever graduated from Wayzata High School!
