Show COLLEGE CLASS SONG TUNE-"ALL THE QUAKERS ARE SHOULDER SHAKERS" WORDS BY D. IRIS TAYLOR We're a bunch of happy folks, Turning sorrow into jokes, Full of joy our days go flying by, Ever blue in our sky. People think us very strange, But in years there'll be a change. If you think that we are slow, There's a lot that you don't know. Chorus: We are "College." Happy "College"! Full of mirth and glee. An "Owl's" our emblem, too. We're wise and clever, WEBER FOREVER! We are College! Happy College! Of work we're not afraid. Days go flying, Other Classes eyeing, What a demonstration we've made. We are ready, ever ready, to Weber's call. Every one is with us and we'll try to please you all. Mr. Dixon, we're for you, In our days of memory too, We'll stand by our class, Just like we'll stand by the old Red, White and Blue. NORMA HUSSEY Vice-President FLOYD STUART President THELMA STEPHENS Secretary-Treasurer COLLEGE CLASS IN THE YEAR 1915-16 this school instituted a two-year college course. The college work met with small success during the first three years. In the fourth year, however, came success and with it came the call for the organization of a college class. The students selected as the class leaders for the year were: F. Crockett Stuart, president; Norma Hussey, vice-president; and Thelma Stephens, secretary and treasurer. Prof. E. B. Snell was chosen class advisor. The silver owl was adopted class emblem be- cause it belonged to our class of "wise old birds." Students joined the green and silver colors until it grew to be the strongest and most complete unit in the student body. The spirit of the upperclassmen soon began to manifest itself in activities, the first being a Hallowe'en Ball. The "Hobgoblin Promenade"-the name given to the affair-holds the foremost place among Weber socials. The voiced approval of the students was, "The auditorium and halls?-decorated more richly and appropriately than ever before. The crowd?-largest and best gathered at Weber's hall for years. Admission?-Cheap. Music?-enchanting." In the Barker speaking contest, Miss Lettie Ririe won first place and with it the Barker award. Teams were entered for athletic contests but few honors were won. As thespians, the college students met with success. Five speaking parts in the school play, "The Fortune Hunter," were cast from college students. Others held prominent roles in the "Nautical Knot." let unsatisfied in dramatic activities, the class presented "Safety First, a three-act farce, in the school auditorium, North Ogden. and Huntsville, before large and pleased audiences. Ins year's success has inspired the class to greater things and Plans are now under way to organize a college student body. |
