Sophomore Class History The Sophomore Class passed through the portals of G.H.S. in ’45. They were then known as “green freshmen,” but within two years they have been outstanding in both scholastic and social activities. Selected to lead the class in their freshman year were: Johnny Sergeant, President; Nancy Roh-robough, Vice President; Janet Thayer, Secretary and Treasurer. Their entry in the Inter-Class Contest Plays was “Little Jack Horner” under the direction of Hugh Fordyce, with a cast including: Johnny Sergeant, Theodore Corco-lovis, Nancy Rohrobough, Helen Utt, Joan Mc- Kinney, Ramona Ellers. Two members of their class, Nancy Holloway and Rill Rowman were starred in the Thespian play, “Hansel and Gretel.” This year found them one step farther toward their goal and once more they were ready to show their leadership. In the class election, Donald Reed, Bill Young, Judy Miller, Janet Thayer, were well chosen as capable leaders. They were well represented on the gridiron by Davie Moran and Rill Young. Rill was the only Sophomore representative on the varsity-team. 27
