On this first day of school our kind sponsors made the day an easy one for us. Most of our schedules were handed to us complete. All we had to do was to follow them. We found, as the year went by, that the courses they had selected for us fitted our situation very nicely; this scheduling required much forethought and study on the part of our kind sponsors.
At our first class meeting the following business was transacted: Election of class officers; (Elmer Phillips, President; Bill Reed, Vice President; Grace Howard, Secretary; Harold Bennett, Treasurer). We chose blue and gold as our class colors; "We pull the most when we pull together" as our motto, and mountain laurel as our class flower. Our class officers worked very faithfully during the entire year.
The upper classmen sponsored freshmen week for us; this was during the second semester. We carried dolls, spoke to all upper classmen and all such foolish things. We must say that we had a fine time and got a great deal from it. At the end of the freshmen week they gave us a nice party at which time we got better acquainted with our teachers and classmates.
We were proud to see our class lead in the number of students who had straight S's on the honor roll a number of times. The second six-weeks only three students in school had a perfect score of 3.00, two of them were freshmen. The third six-weeks the only student in school with 3.00 points was a freshman.
