On September s, 1913, band of
sixteen freshmen wandered into the
unknown ways of the Douglas Coun-
ty High School. This was the larg-
est class that had ever enrolled in
the high school. 1t comprises
students from all schools in the
county, and two from California.
We spent our first few weeks be-
coming accustomed to the manner
and morals of the high school. Dur
ing this time the upper classmen
finding time hanging heavy, began
the initiation ceremonies in which
we furnished the amusements for
the other students.
One of the buried hopes of our

1t is frequently stated that class
history repeats itself, but this state
ment is not altogether supported by
facts, as many historians have found
to their sorrow. As the task of
finding new facts has this year
fallen to us, we will relate some of
the experiences of the Sophomore
class of 1914.
In the year 1912 we, class of
ten, entered the Douglas County
High School. Being Freshmen, our
studies were entirely new and conse-
quently very interesting. The
teachers knowing the disadvantages
of new students, worked to rouse
interesting high school subjects.
Our German recitations furnished

ber of our class, but we think he
would not care to have il published
To prevent curiosity we will give
his name: James Peterson.
Ada Fricke said she wished to
have her name published in the
paper. She has given us no chance
to get joke on her. but we have
found that her one great fault is
winking. Although we were un-
able to find jokes on the other mem
bers of the class we hope that they
will not feel as though they had
been sighted. Perhaps their names
will appear in the history of our
sophomore class.
The officers elected at the begin
ming of the term were; Alma
Anderson, president; Hilda He'se,
vice-president; Agnes Jensen, fsec-
retary and treasurer; James Peter

would take two to manage him.

fresh career was an attempt To
organize a basketball team in which
the freshmen girls were to take an
active part. When we enter the
sophomore ranks we expect to see
this hope reality.
During the year each class gave
play. We enjoyed the other class
plays. and when it came our turn
we tried to entertain them in like
manner. We know we succeeded
for which there is half day vaca-
ton due all.
The mid-year examinations failed
to diminish the ranks of the fresh

that all were ION deck although

During the year we have burned
much of midnight light studying
for examinations, etc, for which we
have been amply repaid.

statement be true we would be
greatly pleased if he would show it
