By the time the ninth grade is reached, the shape o f each student's building of learning can be pretty well determined. In this first year of high school, the shaping up of the last four years is begun. Last fall, on September 28, the sophomores did a good job of initiating these freshman ngreen- ies,W making them feel as foolish a n d excited as all freshman classes do. After Jean Beck and Donald Burkholder quit school during the winter, the freshmen tied with the seniors for the honor of be- ing the smallest class in school! There were only sixteen new addi- tions to the high school enroll- ment this year. The class elected athlet- ically minded Shari Weber a s their president. Kenneth Miller was voted in as vice-president. The secretary of this compara- tively quiet class is Margaret Rupp, Rachel Frey is the trea- surer. In the picture at the top of the page, a group of freshman girls was interrupted i n the midst of a sewing session. Miss Liechty, home economics teacher and freshman class sponsor, is directing their sewing.

The sophomore home eco- nomics girls cooked and served the dinner with which the faculty entertained the school board members and their wives at their March party. The sophomore boys seem to be quite interested in the FFA since six of them are active neumers. To serve as leaders, this class chose Lowell Ayers as president,Marlin Beck as vice- president, and Claudette Rupp as secretary-treasurer. Miss Wyse sponsored the class. During the winter months, Doris Beck withdrew from the class. In t h e above picture, part of the sophomore class is shown i n the midst of their English class. 18
