26 QUINIAULT Junior Class History N THE morning of September 5, nineteen hundred eleven, thirty-seven timid Freshmen were assembled in room nine under the careful supervision of Mr. Holmquist. After the usual confusion caused by Freshmen entering wrong rooms, etc., we settled down to such hard work that some of the more skeptical and more experienced teachers were of the opinion that it could not endure. But we think that time has proved that they were wrong in their surmises. It was not until two months had passed that we gained enough confidence in ourselves to organize a class. With the assistance of Roberts’ Rules of Order and under the direction of Mr. Holmquist, we elected the following class officers: President, Edwin Wilson; Vice-president, Clarence Caldwell; Secretary, Edward Holmer, and Treasurer, Celia Cahn. The following January we were joined by the lower Freshmen, who increased our number to fifty. Four of our classmen, namely Clarence Caldwell, Amelia Pearson, Frances Douglas, and Minnie Mapes represented our class in the Chehalis County Triangular Debate while Olga Lempi was one of the most successful players on the girls’ basket-ball team. Near the close of the year we participated in our first picnic. It is needless to say that it was a grand event when one morning we sailed off on the Steamer Champion for Westport, as the chosen company of the Seniors, although they enjoyed their picnic at North Jetty and insisted that we should go on to Westport, and also that they should have sole right to the upper deck of the boat. But, alas, for them, it rained; but, like sympathetic Freshmen we allowed them to share the lower deck with us. With the aid of the many delicacies prepared by the girls, and the boys, ours was indeed an enjoyable time. We returned home none the worse for our experience with the exception of nothing more serious than freckles and sunburn. SOPHOMORE YEAR We began our second year with much more spirit and enthusiasm than was displayed the first year, which may be attributed to the fact that we were no longer “the” under classmen.
