.X Sophomore Class History Alfred Akamatsu, '29 On the first day of school, September 13, 1926, the class of twentyffive timid Freshies was found to be a class of nineteen Sophs, though much tougher and somewhat more dignified. Although Edgar Heibert encouraged us, on that day, to join our class from Rio Vista High School, yet our misfortune was great, for we lost three boys and five girls out of twentyffive members. William Quigly who, as a little yell leader, had backed school athletics left us for Seattle, Washington, Elwood Carr for Galt Hig Guido Galli, our reputated vocal artist, for Heald's Business College, Florence Lum for Stockton Hi, Pauline Merino and Hazel Miles for Dixon and Ella Mark for San Francisco. Our class was organized on September 24, 1926, the experience of one year in high school was proved useful by the orderly and prompt election of the follow' ing oilicers: Elaine Vollman ........ .............. P resident Edna Mason .......... ........ V ice President Cleo Fites ......... ........... S ecretary Celestine Berry ....... ......i... T reasurer jesse Thomas ........ ......... C lass Editor George Hudson ........ ..,.... . Collector Alfred Akamatsu ....... .............. H istorian Miss Paulsen .,.,,,.,. ............,............,.,................................ ' .Class Advisor The same class motto Let's Grow and class flower, the Chrysanthemum were retained from the last year to grow in spirit and in class activities. In October, Alma Sutter, who was the captain of the Girls' baseball team left us for Galt Hi. Harold Carr joined us from Utah in November, but he, too went into the business world about a month later. On the third of December the gloomy dull air of the cold night was filled with merriment and cheer, for the very successful Sophomore Dance was taking place from 8 p. m. to 1 a. m. As Sophomores we took a more active part in school activities than we did last year, and we hope we will grow more and more as our motto shows, Let's Grow. lA PERITA '83 1 9 Twenty-fi e
