SOPHOMORE NOTES On that never-to-be-forgotten Monday of September, 1916, the Class of 1920 began its career. Our mistakes were laughed at by the upperclassmen in the usual way, but never once did we lose our loving disposition and our keen sense of humor. The other classmen were soon convinced of our sterling worth and treated us accordingly. Our class officers for the year were Velda Farlow, president; Stacy Hoy, vice-president; Edgar Mathers, secretary; Pryce Birdsley, treasurer, and Mr. Smith, class adviser. This year the class came back with more “pep” than ever. We elected the following officers; Clyde Massey, president; Gladys I Ovelace, vice-president; Dora Winkler, secretary: Edgar Mathers, treasurer, and Mr. Smith, class adviser. Although our year hasn’t been filled with many social activities, we are full of “pep. If you should like information on the matter, just inquire from some members of the faculty. We began the year by giving an initiation party to the Freshmen. It was very much enjoyed by both class and the faculty (especially the latter). Just before Christmas the two English classes, who had been competing in a contest for the highest average, had a party at the home or Pryce Jones. Everyone declared that they had a most delightful time. Those Sophomores in the General Science classes evidently enjoyed themselves immensely at their tacky party, from the various and numerous remarks that were heard the next day. Wait till we are Seniors! We will show old F. C. H. S. the best class ever, for that matter we are at present, the finest kind of a class. We have been well represented in football and basketball this year. Elenor Kelly, Esther Jenkins and Daisy Barton are on the first basketball team and have been doing splendid work. We may indeed feel proud of them, since they comprise half of the team. Stacy Hoy is our only representative on both basketball and football teams. We have been patriotic, too, buying a Liberty Bond, pledging to the Junior Red Cross, buying Thrift Stamps, and refraining from candy and sweets. We are now finishing an eventful year and are looking forward to a still better one when we are Juniors. Having completed our Freshman year, we felt quite worldly-wise, but as we finish our Sophomore year we realize that there is yet much knowledge to be learned, a rich harvest to reap and two more interesting years just before us. We all seem to be enjoying our studies very much, but as warm . weather approaches the sunshine is almost too great a temptation (we realize how great a temptation it is when we know that several of our members are becoming quite noted for eighth periods). Wouldn’t it be queer if Bill Goetz did not have an eighth period every other night? What would happen if Thelma Griffin could not chew gum? How could the high school exist without the illustrious Sophomore Class? We hope that everyone will come back next year with renewed vigor, ready for work. We wish to join with the other classes in wishing the Seniors the best of success in their various new vocations and wre hope that dear old F. C. H. S. will always be a pleasant memory to them as it will be to us. D. S., ’20. Page Txcenty-acvcn
