ORANGE AND BLACK Sophomore Class Notes On September seventh, sixty-five members entei’ed the Falls City High School as Sophomores, which was sixteen less than our class roll as Freshmen. Our first meeting was called September tenth in order to organize as a class. Elmer Massey was elected President, Clarence Gregg, Vice-President, Mildred Alderfer, Secretary-Treasurer. Miss McAuley was chosen for class sponsor. It is always the duty of the Sophomore to initiate the Freshmen into High School because they have passed along the same road only the year before and understand the hardships, duties, trials and honors of being a Freshman. For this purpose, we planned the Freshman Reception to take place October 1, 1920, in the High School Gymnasium, which was decorated in blue and gold, and green and white, the class colors of the two classes. Not only were the Freshmen let in on the secrets of our school life, but the teachers as well were initiated, because most of them were new. As special guests we had the members of our own and the Pawnee City Football Teams. After the initiatory part of our program the evening was spent in the playing of games until refreshments were served. On October 26th a meeting was called and we were given an invitation to the Freshmen Hallowe’en Party to be given October 29 in the High School Gymnasium. We found them to be royal entertainers. On November 30th another meeting was called in order to elect a new Vice-President. Helen Lichty was elected to take the place left vacant by Clarence Gregg. We were represented on the football team by Elmer Massey and Henry Scheitel; on the Girls’ Basketball team, by Cleo Hoffman and Lydia Wulf. On January 6th a Skating Party was held at Knickerbocker’s Lake. The Sophomores presented a program in the form of the Sophomore Bi-Annual Magazine. We feel that the first number of this wonderful paper was a success because of the keen interest with which the audience looked forward to each section. With the coming of the spring days, came the longing for a picnic and so one was planned for March 17th. We feel that we have had a very successful year, and are hoping that every Sophomore will be back next year to help us make our Junior year even more of a success. —B. S.
