A sophomore English class, under the supervision of Mrs. Rolle, is ho'ding a dehate “Resolved: that girls are better students than bovs.” The basic rules of geometry are taught to these confused geometry students of Miss Hughes. The problem of attaining a high rate of speed and accuracy is extremely important to Miss Karlson’s typists. Miss Rowe demonstrates the tech- niques of baking to the girls in her 10 o’clock home economics class. The boys in Mr. Weitkamp’s indus- trial arts class are hard at work with their saws and hammers making ar- ticles which are useful in the home.

Some of the freshmen were rather shy, but later in the evening the party l ecame more enjoyable for the two classes. The class is well represented in Band, glee clubs, Orchestra, and Debate. A few were in the freshman one act play, “Honey of a Peach”. In the sports department the boys took part in football, basketball, boxing, and baseball. The girls are also in G. A. C. activities. 26
