Although the high school principle didn't authorize me to print this, I knew him as an educator, friend and neighbor, so I can safely say that George A. Sperry Jr. was one of the best Principles we ever had. He was progressive, enthusiastic, energetic and a local boy gone good! I guess it was educational DNA as his two sisters-Alean Pace and Mable Sperry, was some of the best elementary teachers around. From the leather bound Nebonian- Class of 1914, we would like to present the graduating class from Nephi High School, with the school colors then being Crimson and Green. The photo of the entire student body is shown in front of the west buildings between Center and 1st South(by the old Post Office) on Main Street. We thought we would throw in a couple of the business sponsors, as one was my maternal grandfather-Evan Harris, with his Livery Stable, which was west of the present Wells Fargo Bank in Nephi, Utah. It is not cheap to run a year book, as noted by the expense account listed by the students who must have taken Jones Humor.101!
