SOPHOMORE BOYS Heistg Advisers, Miss Zoe Olla Wilt and Miss Grace Fitts, who were very efficient in guiding our class. As ninth graders, we totaled 250, occupying rooms 4, 5, 103, 104, and 105. This year proved to be our banner year, since we were now f ull-pledged Senior High School members. We were permitted to have our first class party, which was a great success in every way. How proud we were! Our subjects took on a new angle, for this year we had to choose the particular course we intended to pursue. Fred Ratowsky was chosen as our leader for '34 and ,353 with Shirley Abelson as Vice-President, Jeanne Fries as Secretary, and Williaxn Goodfellow as Treasurer. Our advisers were Miss Marie Ammon and Miss Margery Reed. And now we were Sophomores! How proud we were to enter this grade for it brought us nearer yet to our upper classmenl Each year, however, seemed to bring new faces to our class. This term we had our second class party and made it a greater success than our freshie party. We were well represented on the football squad, orchestra, a11d other curricular activities. And now the completion of our Sophomore year finds us a lot wiser in the ways of the world, for we fought with Caesar in his Gallic Wars, and at last, we can prove to you that a straight line is the shortest distance between two points!

Miss Berg and Miss Kemp NE sunshiny September day, we, the Class of '38 entered the massive portals of our beloved High School, 120 strong, to be dubbed as the 'ctiny seventh gradersf, After our many trials and tribulations were over, such as finding the right rooms, and becoming acquainted with the halls, etc., we were permitted to organize. Our capable officers for that year were: President, Shirley Abelsong Vice-President, Jimmie Martzg Secretary, Luther Conrad, and'Treasurer, Marjorie Suter. Our advisers were Miss Sarah Noss and Mr. Richard Mentzer. So ended the 1932-33 school term. The next term found us one more year nearer our goal, this time as eighth graders, with several new pupils, who had been added to our aggres- sive class. Nothing of great importance happened during this year. We did find, however, that our duties and classes were becoming more diiiicult.

Miss Reed and Miss Ammon S Ripley says, Believe it or not the l934--35 babies have been pro- moted and now rightfully claim the long coveted name of Green F1-eshiesf' Like our sister classes of the past few years, we came marching to the tune of the old depression song, almost three hundred strong. Imagine our surprise when we came to school to find our band increased from ninety, the number in our eighth grade class, to two hundred and seventy-one. We scarcely recognized ourselves when we went to our reporting rooms on the first day of this school year. There were many new faces among us and we surely wished them a hearty welcome. Here's hoping we can all stick together through the three coming years. Among our g'Verdant F reshmenu we have quite a few people with talent. Several of our boys play on the football and basketball teams, while others, Page Thirty-eight
