Fourteen SUPHUlf1Ul3lf MES HISTUHY President-Ivan Finfroek Vice-President-John Holhert Secretary-Doris Bowman Treasurer-Mary Ann Harsh Adviser-Mrs. Conrad On September 5, l94-l, we were ninety energetic sophomores climbing the steps of G. H. S. eager to begin our Hrst year in senior high school, VVe felt proud because we no longer were timid freshmen, and we still had the distinction of being the largest class in the high school. At our first class meeting we elected class officersg also Joanne Metcalf and john Sharp were elected to represent us on the Student Council. On December 22 we held Christmas parties in our home rooms, exchanged gifts, and sang songs. Our sophomore glee club took part in the Christmas program. During the year we took part in several assembly programs. On February 23, the girls in our class put on a program of dances to celebrate NVashington's birthday. The members of our class in the dramatic club put on a one act play, f'Miss Personality Plus. Our class was well represented in both girls' and boys' sports. VVith much enthusiasm we are looking forward to next year when we will be upperclass- men. However, our usual ardor has been sobered since a tragedy happened to a group of our classmates after the Greencastle-Camp Hill game. VVe extend our sympathy to the Faubel fain- ily and to the Ijitner family, and we hope for the other classmates a speedy return to health and classmates.
