HART HIGH SCHOOL Sophomore We began cur career in Hart High a year ago last September as timid quiet Freshmen. It did not take us long to get used to the new routine although we occasionally got lost in the halls or mixed up on the location of our class rooms. The Juniors and Seniors appeared as heroes to us with their carefree and superior ways. We chose old rose and silver for our class colors and elected our officers as follows: President----Emiel Vanderhouwart Vice President Neil Spitler Secretary .......... Clare Mack Treasurer-----------------Louise Kokx In February we gave our first annual party, which, although it was our first attempt of this kind, came off well, due to the assistance of our class advisor, Mrs. Hutchins. We were defeated by the Seniors in the interclass basket ball tournament. In June we had our dreaded finals which were not so bad as we thought they would be after which we were dismissed for a welcome three months’ vacation. This year starting school was more enjoyable for we had had a whole year of high school life and could sit back and look bored or laugh at the silly mistakes of the Freshmen. We could get some fun out of participating in eraser fights. We Class History looked down on sailing paper airplanes which was now too undignified and child-like. We held a class meeting and elected the following officers: President----------------------Ogden Amstutz Vice President------Lorraine Spitler Secretary---------------------Norman Billings Treasurer---------------Clare Mack Of the sixty-three students who began school last year as Freshmen, fifty-nine had survived and were on hand when school started. A few have dropped since then. Several of the fellows went out for football and many of them made the reserve team. Two of them, Neil Spitler and Ogden Amstutz, covered themselves and the Sophomore class with glory by earning Varsity letters. We gave a program entitled “All Gumed Up” which was well received by the students and teachers. Many of the fellows made the reserve team in basket ball and some of the girls made the girls first team. The second team in basket ball this year made a very fine showing and promises a very fine team next year. Lyllian Wy koff earned a girl’s first team letter. We gave our party right after spring vacation and a good crowd of students and teachers were there. — 27 —

Freshmen Class History On September the fifth, nineteen-twenty-seven, fifty-six Freshmen enrolled at Hart High school and when we came Hart High had the pleasure of noticing one of its best and largest classes. Knowing that such a large body could not succeed without an executive head we elected the following to represent us: President--------------Matt Crosby Vice President Vera Stevens Treasurer-------------Grace Schofield Secretary---------Marland Bruckman Later on Lucille Benner was elected student council member from the Freshman class. We were very fortunate to secure as our class advisor Miss Shisler, who helped us over some very rocky places. On March sixteenth we gave our annual Freshman Frolic, decorating the auditorium in Spring colors and all we say in regard to it is that we hope the rest of the High School enjoyed our party as well as we did their’s. And now as we stand on the threshold of Sopho-moreship and look back over our Freshman year all we can say is that we hope our Sophomore year turns out as well as our Freshman, year did. — 29 —
