THE CLASS of 1943 sophomores Train For Upperclassman Duties Instead of the usual group of quiet Sophomores, the class of '43 was an active part of life at P. H. S. Some of the most important members of the different musical groups were from the Sophomore class, and many of the boys saw their first action in athletic con- tests during the year. Most of the members of the class belong to the G. R., Hi-Y, or Vo-Ag. Social and athletic affairs were not allowed to hide the importance of scholastic attainment. Merlyn Bailey was an all A student the first semester, Margaret Current and Donna Erlet both received three A'sg and Pat Bad- ders, Pal Holloway, and Wendell Klop- fenstein deserve honorable mention with two A's each. With the class organization, play, and reception, next year promises to be one of the most exciting years of their school career.

THE CLASS of 1944 The Frosh are Many and Mighty It was like a deluge when the one hundred and seventy-five Freshman students in September and the twenty- five mid-year students in Janaury en- tered Portland High as members of the class of '44. After the first few days of adjustment, good grades were the most important goals for most of the class. Wanda Whipple, Opal Smith and Mary Garrison were all A students, Richard Hummer received three A's, and Jean Hoskins, Marlyn Marsh, Pat Richer, Mabel Jean Platt, and Elsie Sanders had two A's each. In addition to scholastic interests, many members of the class found time for extra-curricular activities-chorus, band, orchestra, clubs and athletics. The dating of Freshmen girls with up- per-classman boys almost reached extra- curricular activity proprtions. As the year draws to a close, each Freshman is looking forward to next fall and a second year at P. H. S. As We See Them Richard Hummer, in Christmas play . . .
