24 QUINIAULT Junior Class History ESPITB the fact that the virtues, ability, and talents of the Juniors have been summarized numerous times, the writer is compelled to chronicle a few of the brave accomplishments of the class from its first appearance in High School through its present state of Juniorism. Three years of enthusiastic perseverance and whole-souled endeavor have taken their exit, since the J. M. Weatherwax High School received through its portals its first Freshmen. We were that “bright” and promising aggregation. For the first few days we were visited with the customary afflictions—namely, painful timidity; entrance into wrong class rooms; amused tolerance and even ridicule from giggling Sophomores, scoffing Juniors, and haughty disdainful Seniors. The monotony of the ordinary routine was broken by the first annual class picnic; the time, place, and manner of conveyance being decided on after several exciting class meetings. At the end of the year, through our record for Freshman ability, we had won for ourselves a firmly established foothold in the estimation of teachers and upper classmen—and an indisputable right to be considered an integral part of the “A. IT. S.” Thus we ended the first lap of our High School course, strengthened with confidence in our selves, and filled with high aspirations and ambitions to finish our course with ever-increasing merit. According to chronological order, football comes first in the athletic routine. We were well represented on the gridiron, inasmuch as on the first team, there were more representatives from the Sophomore class than from any other class. Nor were our efforts in basketball less worthy of mention than in football. The able playing of our team under the captaincy of Homer Cross resulted in securing for us second place in the interclass basketball combats of that year. Laurels were won by the Sophomores in track work, which is a matter of great pride to the class of ’14. On the gridiron again by far the majority of the squad were Juniors. The class made its first class party which was held at the home of Homer Cross. The Junior Prom, was held Jan. 31, and proved a success both socially and financially. Bravely was the basketball championship won and a trophy of a pennant awarded the class. The year is nearing to its completion and we shall be high and mighty Seniors, and then it will fall to onr lot to be leaders in school activities. Already many present Juniors may be observed assuming an added dignity and a greater sense of responsibility.
