ORANGE AND BLACK SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY The notable class of 1924 entered the realms of the Falls City High School, in quest of greater knowledge, on the 6th of Sept., 1920, with a class roll of eighty— the largest in High School. From the first we showed ourselves competent, if not brilliant, and throughout the year we did our utmost to make ourselves worthy members of the High School. The Sophomores honored us with a party, which was returned in the same spirit. The staff of officers for that year were—Clarence Nutter, President; George Reid, Vice-President; Anna Margaret Brecht, Secretary-Treasurer, and Miss Herrick, Sponsor. In the various school activities of the year we assisted as much as possible and we were not wrong in declaring that the following year would be very successful. Now, at last this class has come into its own. On the 5th of Sept., with a scholarly army of about sixty strong, we took our standard of the purple and gold and began our second march to wrest for ourselves a place in the annals of the F. C. H. S. At our first class meeting for reorganization, the following officers were elected: Anna Margaret Brecht, President; John Whitaker, Vice-President; Rosalie Linsley, Secretary-Treasurer, and Miss Gregory, Sponsor. On Oct. 3rd we successfully entertained the Freshmen with a party in the gymnasium. At the opening of the basket ball season, a Sophomore team was organized, which captured third prize in the Inter-Class Basket Ball Tournament. On the first football and basket ball teams we were represented by Wilbert Zorn, and on the Girls’ Basket Ball team by Sara Helen Simanton and Esther Mettz. We hope that next year we will have a larger representation on th? teams. Along musical and dramatic lines we also showed ourselves proficient and fcr the Sophomore Class program, with the presentation of our play, we furnished a ten-piece orchestra. On the whole, this has been a very successful year, thanks to the Faculty and out Sponsor, Miss Gregory; and when we return next P’all as Juniors, we are determined to make that year an even greater one for ourselves and the Orange and Black.
