SOPHOMORES The N. H. S. year of activities was begun by the Sophomore Class on October 7, 1947 with Freshman initiation. Freshmen came to school that day, adorned with old clothes, worn inside out and backwards. Girls sported old straw hats and the boys covered their curls with headscarfs worn rnammy fashion. The serenity of the initiation was bluntly interrupted when four underclassmen, girls at that, were dragged onto the stage. It seems that these damsels were caught snooping, and as punishment--can't you just feel raw egg cracked on your skull? The evening closed after the playing of games, with a lunch being served the students and faculty by the Sophomore Class. Out of the class of 16 they have a good representation on the High School Basketball team, namely: Robert Buck, Carl Seidel, Marvin Hanson, and Myron Christenson. The band, also claims three of their members: Connie Sartain, ElVeda Carlson, and Robert Buck. Their class officers for the year are: President--Madeline. Bridell: Vice-President--Claire Moberg: Secretary-Treasurer-- Marlis Quast. Members of their class on the Student Council are Connie Sartain and Carl Seidel.

FRESHMEN High School education began for twenty freshmen on September 6, 1947 as they entered the assembly officially to help form the rank and file of Nevis High. Perhaps the pace set was too fast or perhaps for other reasons, footsteps led them away! the number diminished to ta final eighteen. During Junior Business class on October 24, the Sophomores invaded the quiet solitude of the assembly wrecking havoc with cold cream and lipstick. The hideously painted faces were part of their official welcome--the traditional initiation, That after- noon the three frosh boys on the football team thought they would fbecause of their horrible looking facesl frighten the Remer team to the point of nonresistance. NeHi did win that game but whether it was because of the appearance of the freshrnen or the team's superb playing will never be known. ' As is customary the freshmen, in response to the party given them on initiation, sponsored an evening of entertainment for the High School. It was, however, far from a party to get even with the sophomores for the tortures inflicted upon them. Eats clim- axed the evening's activities. The class officers, as elected by the freshmen were as follows President--Jean Thompson: Secretary-Treasurer--Joanne Culleyt Student Council Representatives--Ann Irwin and Robert Burchett. The ninth grade boys combined with those of the seventh and eighth grades to form a Boy's Club. under the direction of Mr. Clipson and Mr. I-lanes: a similar club was formed among the girls under Miss Malotky's guidance. The purpose of these clubs QTo provide the students with enjoyment through handicraft, was ful- filled through projects completed by each individual member. The type of projects constructed during the hour given the boys each week were gimp and plexi-glass for braclets, and leather for belts and billfolds while the girls spent their time making shell jewelry and chip-carvingbookends.
