HI-LIFE SOPHOMORE CLASS Ahh—Life is so—oo sweet, Just a bowl of cherries--tra-la-la. Birds in spring etc., etc. Oh mel We are so innocent. We—the little freshies, such children. We finally lit and were showed into the balcony where ve elected Don Choate, president; Junior Hansen, Tice president; Sue Ann Wright, secretary; and Maxine Benedict, treasurer. Miss Sellers and Mr. Beal saw us through that terrible, yet happy year. We chose black and silwer for our class colors. Modernistic? eh what? Our motto especially fitted us: Green as a leaf. But we re always ready. Butl this year we are Sophomores! Now we are about to retaliate. The Freshies will suffer now! We, with a grim determination, re-elected Don Choate, president; Wyman Bigler vice president; Sue Ann Wright, secretary; and Bob Saunders, treasurer. Our advisors are Miss Sellers and Mr. Dibble. We put on a honeymoon for our Sophomore Assembly, and had a scene from School for Scandal, depicting the brilliant, shallow London high life. Then there was mam1sells's boudoir in gay Paree. Op Liddle Hans, was a Danish scene showing a young farmer doing his hardest task—getting up. Mexloo was visualized by a gay cafe scene with Marjorie Kingsbury singing La Cucaracha. It was a great success. We also put on a party in cooperation with the Freshmen, having the same orchestra that was here for the Leap Year Party. And besides that a swell floor show. Some fun.

Jack Pearl-President Bob Kipp-Vice President HISTORY 0? THY FR'ISHY - N CLASS The Freshman Class of Greenville High School is but a brief six months old, yet during that time it has been fortunate in having made its presence well known This class of 1939 has been fortunate in having the advice, guidance, and assistance of Miss Shigley, Miss Eldred, Miss Vaughn, Mr. Reynolds and Mr. Houck, our advisors. iit the first business meeting, held on September 26, 1935, we elected as our president, Jack Pearl; vice president, Bob Kipp; secretary and treasurer, Sdith Anne Belshaw. The first social event sponsored by the class was the Freshman Mixer held on October 4. Dancing and games orovided entertainment for the eveningjand for the first attempt the party proved to be a great success. Several members of the class received recognition on the basketball and football teams. On January 15th the freshmen had their assembly program. Charlotte Baker was chairman of the program. Much credit is due her and the following class advisors; Miss Sldred, Mis3 Shigley and Miss Vaughn. The program was divided into four groups headed by Betty Ritzema, Arthur Christensen, Jim Bower, and Charles McLean. An appropriate prize was awarded Betty Ritzema s group. Charlotte Baker and Mary Frances Clark were cast in the all high school play, The Golf Champ. They acquitted themselves admirably though only Freshies. Charlotte gave a splendid performance in the role of Fanny Fish, the maid; and Mary played the part of Tootsie Waldo, the shrewish wife of a practical Joker. The Freshman-Sophomore party was held on February 21, witn Jim Ecsall acting as general chairman. A good attendance of both classes spent an enjoyable evening dancing. In the declamation contest, v.e certainly showed the other classes up. Four declamations were given and all of them Freshies. Ella Sandburn received the well deserved first place. Charlotte Baker, Mary Frances Clark and Geraldine Brown also delivered their declamations with ease and in a very professional manner. For individual entertainment some biology students went to Grand Rapids to hear Admiral Byrd%and the Latin Classes enjoyed 3 sleigh ride. All in all, being a Freshman isn t half bad.
