Q U I N I A U L T JfMStorp of Class of 1919 As the year of ’19 is tolling out its close, we, as graduating Seniors, and the wise elders of the A. II. S„ will here sound our trumpets in a mighty effort to reveal our triumph for the past few eventful years. CHAPTER I. We have arrove, most of 11s in 1914. some of 11s dating a while back; hut we all intend to graduate, preferably about 1919. The following verse portrays to you our true feeling: Here we is as green as grass, Sophies stare with eyes of glass, Juniors give us all their sass, Seniors snub us as we pass, Freshmen! Freshmen! ’19 Class. The Freshmen officers were elected at the first class meeting, which we held September 17. They were as follows: Russell Austin, President: Filly Nordgren, Vice President; Helen Chamberlain, Secretary; and Ed Green, 1 reasurer. Our initiation into social life took place at the High School Gym when the Sophs entertained at a Freshmen reception in our honor. In basketball the class was well represented and the Frosh won the Tnterclass Championship over the Juniors. On the gridiron, too, the Freshmen made a splendid showing. In debate the class contributed three members. CHAPTER IT. Xow in our Sophomore year our unsophisticated attitude gradually disappeared, and we immediately started out by showing our authority over the Freshmen, which were and still are an inexplicable, omnipresent, salubricating. self-gratifying, heterogeneous, indescribable, incomparable mass of humanity and sufferers of brain fag in general. Of course, the thing that occupied the minds of the Sophomores was the one event—which bores the minds of all Sophomores—the reception in honor of the Freshmen which was a very elaborate and interesting affair. No doubt you realize, but refuse to admit, that we made a very good showing in athletics, both girls and boys. Interest is not of the keenest in the 2nd vear for you are neither a Frosh nor a Senior. Our election resulted in the following officers: Gordon Tebb, President; Marian Vernon, Vice President: Cecelia Carlson, Secretary; and Doc Austin, Treasurer. “Jingles,” the baby elephant, and “Fat Mitchell of Melon s Food fame, both held honors on the II. S. eleven. —25—
