xX D gifs EL DORADOI JQ 1.931v 'Z l Q ffjfi 5? Sophomore Class History ON August 18, 1929, thirty-three eager individuals entered East Lampeter High School and announced themselves as Freshmen. We were known im- mediately as Freshies -we wonder why! Every member of the class was rather timid until he became better acquainted with the upper classmen. At least we are proud enough to say that we took the Sophomores initiation very good-naturedly- and perhaps we enjoyed it as much as our superior classmates did. w After the first few weeks of school, we settled down to earnest studying, for all of us were a little frightened at the aspect of not passing. Our class was soon organized as we saw that the other classes were complete organizations, and of course, we followed in their steps. We were told by Mr. Breidenstine that class dues were necessary to cover the Freshman Class expenses in the El Dorado. It was arranged that each individual should pay five cents a week. The members of our class were very proud of a few talented individuals who took parts in the cantata entitled, David, the Shepherd Boy. On the last day of school, the entire student body went on an outing to Mt. Gretna Park, which was a new and wonderful delight to we Freshmen, and we all made the best of it. As the summer wore on, we soon realized that school was to open again. I believe everyone, although he didn't want to admit it, was rather glad that studies would begin, and classmates would meet and talk over their summer adventures. Well-we felt rather important to become Sophomores, and now it was our time to look down on the class below us. Now we had the privilege of initiating the Freshmen and they certainly were good sports. They had to do some very foolish things, but no hard feelings were carried after initiation was over. About the second week of school, we elected new oiiicers. They were: President, Clarence Rohrerg Vice-President, Norman Warfelg Secretary, Leonore Lentzg Treasurer, John Kling. We decided after a few meetings that we would hold a Spelling Bee in order to raise money for the class treasury. The event proved very successful, and encouraged the class to such an extent that we hope to have some- thing else in the later months. While in Biology class, Mr. Breidenstine explained to us about the Audubon Club and we decided to join the organization. Now pamphlets and magazines are secured through the efforts of the club, which help and guide us in bird study. The Sophomore Class is a very active group. We are very much elated over the brilliant playing of the boys who have been able to play on the basketball teams. All through the past, present years, three of the boys from our ranks have been sensational players. Our girls also are well represented in the second basket- ball team. Although they are only on the second team, the girls can be praised for their excellent ability shown while playing. A large portion of the basketball team is composed of boys of the Sophomore Class. In the coming Cantata entitled, Esther, the Sophomores are very well represented and have some of the leading parts. Since the beginning of nineteen thirty, Mr. Evert, instrumental instructor, gave many lessons on various instruments and among the many pupils a large number were Sophomores. We hope and know that our class will continue to ascend to higher heights, and be known as honorable and helpful, after we have left dear old East Lampeter. DOROTHEA FOOSE '33 Thirty
