We elected as class officers Mary Ann Goodwin, president, and Claire Burke, secretary, and our place in the Missions was capably filled by lean Ander- son. We performed the traditional duty of sophomores by initiating the freshmen. Afterwards refreshments were servedy some of the frosh needed them, too. Retreat found the sophomores quietly and solemnly listen- inq to those interesting conferences qiven by our retreat master, Father McShane. On May Day, Ioan Debrecht was our repre- sentative as maid. Mary Catherine Dolan, Marqie Berqin, Sue Bolhofner, Ioan Casey, cmd Claire Burke are members of the up and coming corps team. We are very proud of Mary Ann Combs, who was the only sophomore on the varsity this year, as well as of Claire Burke, who won first place on the begin- ners' sinqles in the annual Horse Show. This is but a brief sketch of our busy and full year as Sophomore A. Be looking for us next year when you will see us at our best as juniors of S. I. A. Page Twenty-Eight

unior Sunned and studious junior B returned to classes on Sep- tember 5, with the addition of jane Keough, Mary jim Gratiaa, and Catherine Nelson to the former number. Class elections were held, in which vice president Pat O'Rourke and secertary Dolores Ryan were chosen from our section. Representing our class in the student council were Elinor Schreiner and lane Keough. Our class gave active representatives to the Legion of Mary, the varsity and corps basketball teams, the riding, bowling, and sub-deb clubs, and the swimming team. First semester exams were followed by a welcomed re- treat in which juniors laid aside their books, and turned full attention to God. Several juniors starred in the annual Horse Show, taking first honors in numerous events. The highlight of a junior's year, the Prom, was held at Norwood Hills Country Club on May 10, resulting in a happy success for both seniors and juniors. Marie Mathews was chosen as our maid in one of the most beautiful May Days St. Ioseph's Academy has ever seen. Removing our thinking caps after final exams we bid fare- well to fellow juniors and final farewell to departing seniors. The same expression may be found on the lips of every junior - Hasn't this been a wonderful year?

.SQOIQAOWI 0I Q As we look back over the past year, we, the members of Sophomore B, have many thoughts of memorable occasions. The first excitinq incident of our sophomore year was the freshmen initiation. We found our bewildered little frosh and dressed them in ludicrous costumes to suit the occasion. We next elected class officers- slune Owens, vice presi- dent, and Patti Trapp, treasurer. Officers in other organizations were Rosemary Renoe, our mission representative, and loan Heade and Ruth O'Neill, our student council representatives. After days of practice under the excellent supervision of Miss Tracy, we won the coveted miniature volleyballs in the school tournament. For May Day we selected as our maid Ieannette Unqar. Our athletes participated in the 13th annual Horse Show and in the Field Day events on our campus. As we are now completing this year at S. I. A., we hope that we shall become just as successful as juniors in l946'l947. rIFtsT ROW Heade, McKay, Nolan, Sullivan, Owens, Trapp, Lawler, Olszewski, Masclimann, Miceli.
