Glass Glhrnnirlva Genesis ROBERTA BELLAZZI 1. Now the history of the Class of Twenty and Two, in the High School of West Seattle, in the City of Seattle, the County of King, and the State of Washington, is in this wise: 2. ln the year of our Lord, Ninteen Hundred and Eighteen, in the ninth month and the fifth day, there entered these Halls of Learning, a throng of youthful seekers of Knowledge. Some came up from the eighth grades, where they had been storing up in their minds the honey of wisdom, some were fresh and green from the country, and some from the great cities of our land. 3. And it came to pass that by some, they were received with rejoicing, but a certain band of wild beings, called Sophomores, pounced upon them and did cause them to suffer great things. 4. But as they did progress in their studies, they did become accustomed to their surroundings and became as one among the rest. And there came a time when they saw the necessity of choosing some leaders, but a strange pestilence, called the Flu,', spread over the land and caused the movement to be abandoned. 5. And it came to pass in the fall of the year that the fair maidens of the tribe rose up and won the Basketball Championship. 6. And it happened that in the spring the class did work hard and did progress greatly, so that by June they had finished their first year in this new Land of Learning. One Year Later 1. Now it did happen that the band in their Sophomore year did have as an advisor, the wise and gentle Miss Mary of the house of Showalter. And she did say unto them: 2. Go gather ye in a body, and organize yourselves into a class that ye may gain strengthf, 3. And the chosen leaders were: Ed Colcock, President, Duane Parrett, Vice-President, Marshall Myers, Secretary, Herbert Kindred, Treasurer. 4. And this body did accomplish many things. The class did contribute a city and state debater and the youths did win the Class Basketball Championship. The class did also furnish players for the Football and Baseball teams of their beloved school. 5. And it did come to pass that in the same year the class did rise up and give a Sophomore Mixer. And behold, the mixer was suc- cessful, insomuch as it did afford great pleasure to the multitudes, who did fall upon the ice cream and greedily devour it. 6. And in such a manner did the class from their second year go into the third, a wiser and a stronger body. Two Years Later 1. And it did come to pass that the multitude had traveled far and had reached their third year of sojourning in the Halls of West Seattle. The class did this year choose to guide them: Carl Mahnken, Page Seventeen
