They parTicipaTe.in many clubs and exTra-curricu- lar acTiviTies sponsored by The school. W h ile The seniors are The officers and leaders of organizaTions, The underclassmen are The followers who provide The manpower and supporT. The ROTC, for example, is headed by seniors, buT The juniors and sophomores fill The ranks and follow The leadership of The seniors. Even Though mosT of The TooTball heroes may be seniors, The underclassmen ThaT sTay on The bench are also imporTanT. They will be The players ThaT replace The seniors in years To come. The days pass quickly and The underclassman progresses from a frighTenecl freshman To an unsure sophomore, To a confidenT iunior, and finally To a mighTy, mighTy senior. The homework, hard exams, and long reporTs combine wiTh The dances, TooTba'll games, and Jamborees To become a parT of The life of an underclassman.
