THE CHIPMUNK Page Eleven SENIOR RECORD On September eleventh 1925 thirty-four young “frosh” lost in the rush for registration soon were made to feel the superiority of the three upper classes. The first day we were hardly noticed by the older students but when the next day arrived the fun began. The seniors seemed to have had a bad dream the night before and meant to make the “freshies dream that night. For the following rules: FOR BOYS 1. No sox. 2. Jeans with legs rolled to knees and with a large “29” both front and rear. 3. Pack books, and promptly obey and respect the words of the older students. one week the wiser heads dictated FOR GIRLS 1. No paint or powder. 2. No silk stockings. 3. No shoes lower than six inches high. 4. All dresses well below the knees. The first Friday, the sophomores literally, figuratively, and most efficiently cleaned the freshmen, giving us a very thorough initiation. But with all our handicaps we were able to make a little showing the first year . The second year only nineteen of us came back and you may rest assured we had the intention of slaughtering the “frosh”. However, our hope and aspirations in regard to the new class were soon shat- tered because the principal “ousted” initiations forever. We went thru the year just a “whooping it up” and ever since the class of ’29 has played an important part in school affairs. On Friday evening. February eighteenth, 1927, the “29ers” gave a party in the high school auditorium. The fun was over at eleven- thirty and every one went home and slept only to awaken around one o’clock to find the school building a mass of flames. School for the rest of the term was held in the grammar school building with few activities to hold our attention. Our third year opened in a new and finer building and members of the class of ’29 helped a great deal in establishing ideas for a type of school new to Westwood. In this third year two-thirds of our boys made block “W’s” in football. In the rest of the sports, especially inter-class contests, we didn’t go so “hot”. At four a. m. on the day the class of ’28 took their sneak, about eight ” ’29ers” got away with the main part of the Seniors’ food. By seven a. m. the tables had been turned on the Juniors and they were on their way home to breakfast. At any rate we claim the distinction of being the first Junior class to at least for a time catch the Seniors napping on their Sneak Day. The term of ’28-’29 finds us the uppermost class in school. In scholarship we lead the school. A class winning a banner for highest scholarship in the school for three consecutive months gets its numerals engraved in a placque in the office. Senior Class of 1929 now has its numerals engraved three times thereon. All this time the class has been getting “nowhere fast” in regards to members. April 1929 finds the Senior class totaling seventeen mem- bers of which there are only a few who did not originally belong to the class. However, the class is still very much alive and making its existence known to all with whom it comes in contact. C. V. N. ’29.
