We, the Freshmen began school with about 40 members. At the close of school there were only 14 girls and 16 boys. Some of us be- came discouraged of school work and others were taken out to help their parents at home. We chose as our class colors, maroon and White. Our class flower is the American Beauty Rose. Our motto is We're not at the top, but climbing. Some of our boys and girls played on the Junior high teams. Our boys helped win the Junior high basketball pennant this year, and last year they helped win the silver cup. Ira Strickler was our president the first semester, and Marjorie Rickman the second. Georgia Amend and Zola Estep were our sec- retaries for the first and second semesters. Zola Estep and Mildred Freyler were the class reporters. The Sophomores gave us an initiation party. They took the little Freshmen boys and clipped their hair off the back of their heads. They triedxto make the girls wear their hair down their backs in pig- tails, but they were not very successful. Next year We Freshmen hope to become Sophomores. We also hope to make better grades than we have this year.

THE CHERADO--1924 All Hail the Sophs! Sophomores! By the public we are generally recognized as that specie of humanity just past the stage of fishdom and salty water. Webster defines us briefly as a student in the second year of the cur- riculum. The upper classmen make no attempt to define us, other than to say that we are the worst bunch in school. At that, to hear members of the various classes tell how perfect each is in his or her class, We couldn't be so Very bad. Fortunately for C. H. S., it has a Sophomore class. The apple greenness of our early high school days has changed to a realization of our own importance. And so here is the END of this poor effort to glorify the Sophomores, but it is decidedly not the end of the Sophomores themselves. Sophomores are bright and sassy, They do think they know it all, But their traits are not very classy, Weill admit it all--in all. 4

On the seventh of September, 1923, thirty-eight pupils entered the eighth grade. We at once Went to work to see what we could ac- complish. During the next few months several new pupils entered our class, making our enrollment forty-one. Several of our girls played on the Junior high basketball team. We challenged the Freshman girls, and we actually won by 1 point. We have done pretty well during our eighth grade year and ex- pect to do better as Freshmen. IVA WADE.
