l 'UPU nfffnl 4 Thirty-one timid, but ambitious little freshmen entered Galt High School in the fall of 1922 and by the beginning of the next year were looking forward to the time when they were to be called sophomores. llfluch to our disappointment, the class had dwindled down considerably during the summer vacation. ln spite of this, the remainder plunged in with renewed effort to accomplish the work set aside for them. Each member sent forth a rallying shout when lVl rs. Raab was appointed sophomore class advisor. A meeting was called in the early part of the term for the purpose of electing officers. After a number of short meetings, the following were elected: liennie Dresser ....... ......,..........,.....,......

Members of Class After a short preparation, it was presented before assembly on the Friday preceding the Christmas vacation. lmmediately after vacation we put a great deal of concentration and energy into studying in hopes of being successful with our semester examinations. Supposedly, we all were. Our class has always taken a great interest in athletics. Several of our members have played in league basket ball games and some are now playing on the baseball team. During the basket ball season the girls decided to have inter-class games. Each class chose its team and went forth to win the cham- pionship. At first it seemed as though the 'ffreshiesf' sophs and juniors were very evenly matched but the juniors appeared to have lost energy when the season came to a close, The outcome of the games resulted in a tie between the freshies and HSUIll1!4H which was played olT on March 11. The sophomores now hold the championship, having won over the freshmen by a score of 12 to 8.

I9 If 4:2 JUNIOR CLASS The fall of 1923 found a junior class which had dwindled in number but not in strength for the eighteen members have not only been very active in school activities but have starred in many. Margaret Leak and Elwood Tufts had leading roles in A Pair of Sixesf' Helen Small and Irvin Engel also represented ns very creditably, XfVhat would Stop Thief have been but for the substantial cops we furnished? For the beneht of the farm bureau, the juniors put on their regular assem- bly in the evening. VVilliam Fawcett, the president, had charge. Margaret Kelsey, Iris Thomas, and jack Shellcnbarger gave interesting readings. Elwood Tufts played a couple of real jazzy pieces on the clarinet. Helen Small danced a military dance, which she was asked by Mr. Oertel, and Mr. Miller to repeat at a later program. In basket ball we rated very high. The star and captain ol thc team, Albert Calanchini, was a member of our class. Elwood Tufts and lrvine Engel also represented us on the team. Lucille Barquist was the star of the girls' team. Elizabeth lXl'cEnerney and Elsie Daniels have been active on the team, also. The junior class purchased their rings the hrst of the year, and certainly are proud of them. The juniors this year are taking the seniors up above Jackson for a picnic. This, like all of our undertakings, will prove a great success. Next year, as seniors, it will be necessary to put on our dignilied manners and we sincerely hope to keep up our former reputation and if possible, add more to our credit.
