The Svplwmo e C7444 The girls upheld Brea-Olinda quite well. They placed third in basketball, under the very able captainship of June Hanson. They tied with the Juniors for second place in hockey in the interclass games, and under Captain Shirley Kaylor's direction, they were the only team to come home undefeated from play day, tying Laguna Beach 0-0. With Juanita Ondaro as captain of the volleyball team, they again placed third in the interclass games, but for the one game they won, they should be given special recognition. They defeated the freshmen with only six men, and a volleyball team contains nine players. After the interclass games they again kept Brea-Olinda from disgrace by being the only undefeated team from Brea-Olinda. They played Huntington Beach and whipped them by a score of 48-27. For Girls' League, each class is expected to give one program, and for their part, the Sophomores gave a short skit entitled Just an Accident. Joy Manis, June Hanson, Ruby Ferree, Edith Robinson, Rose Warner, and Maxine Meredith gave their acting ability to this play and proved that there was a lot of promis- ing material for next year's Junior play. Among the many things tackled and successfully put on this year by the Sophomore class were a Winter dance and the sponsoring of two very good shows at the Brea Theatre. If it is possible for this class to continue their good work during the rest of their schooling, they will be a class to be very proud of. -Edith Lee Robinson Top Row-VV. Reed, H. Carnine, T.

Mabes R Papillo Through all the hardships and troubles of school days marched the sixty-two Sophomores of 1939 and 1940. With Mrs. Helmick and Coach Shorty Smith as their advisers, they were able to complete another successful school year. As leaders of our class, we hailed Wally Reed as our president, Cecil Sharp, vice president, Maxine Sweet, secretary, Juanita Ondaro, treasurer, and Bob Kubin, sergeant-at-arms. As class representative, the class elected Chet Kolb, while Bill Holland, Harold Yates, Cecil Sharp, Bayne Griffith, Dorothy Prior, Joy Manis, Ruby Ferree, and Edith Robinson represented the class on the Cabinet. Bill Holland and Edith Robinson were the Sophomores on the Board of Control. This class proved that they could not be left out of anything. Several students, including Bill Holland, Billy Grifhs, Harold Yates, and Ruby Ferree, made the scholarship. Let us hope that more are able to make it next year and those on it keep up their good Work. The very able participants selected by our class to represent them at the Co-ed Dance were Ruby Ferree and Chet Kolb. Although they did not receive the title of king and queen, they gave the other contestants a hard race. Our boys and girls both represented the class well in sports. Chet Kolb, Arden Sutliff, Fred Smalley, Dick Strickland, and Hobart Turley did themselves proud in sports, especially in track. Wee Soplwmo e Cla A

7'lie ? e Inman C7444 When sixty of us Freshmen came rushing up to high school on September 11, we were all shaky, green, and scared. But we were not to be downed by our fears, and so we bravely marched up and down the halls to our class rooms. All this was done under the watchful eye of the upper classmen who expected us to be like jellyfish. But we surely fooled them, because didn't the Freshmen boys beat the Sophomores in a tug-a-war on initiation day? By the time we had our first Freshman class meeting, we were collected enough to elect our class officers. After much concentration we elected the following: president, Bob McConnell, vice president, Donald Critchlowg secre- tary, Rachel Merritt, treasurer, Barbara Tremaine. Selected to represent our class on the Executive Board was Richard Davidson. The Freshmen chosen to look important on the all-high and mighty Cabinet are Alice Sage, Bob McConnell, and Donald Critchlow. In the class meeting after much debating, we also selected our class colors, beige and maroon. Although we are the scrubs of the school, we are well represented on the scholarship by Martha Kitaoka, Donald Critchlow, Glenda Griflis, and Richard Davidson. We also have Margaret Prior on the A and B list. ln sports many of our boys made the Cee and Dee teams in both football and basketball. In the years to come they will be very promising material for the Varsity and Bee teams. The girls also played an important part in athletics by helping to train the other teams and by washing all the dishes for the sport banquets. But we are very proud to think that eight of our girls made G.A.A. They are Glenda Griffis, Catherine Eehanis, Barbara Tremaine, Annetta johnson, Martha Kitaoka, and Lois Stagner. On G.A.A. initiation day these girls were dressed very beautifully in gunny-sack dresses and shoes, carrying a mop and egg around with them all day. Top Row C lznchanis, B. Tremaine, A. johnson, A.
