This year we won distinction among the classes through some of our members, one being vice-president of the Athletic Association, six mem- bers on the basketball teams, and one secretary of our Junior League. After working hard, we won the program contest. During this term we also had some members who went out for track and competed in the County Meet. One or two went to the District Meet. A little later in the year we lost three of our members, leaving eighteen on the roll. We ended the Sophomore year with a much stronger determination of reaching the goal After all of us- had enjoyed ourselves wonderfully well during vacation time, we came back to find ourselves Juniors. We could hardly believe that we were really Juniors, because it seemed only yesterday that we were in the Freshman class, taking up our new studies. We again had some new teachers. Miss Shelburne came in place of Mrs. Stoneman, and Miss Riddell in place of Miss Talley, who became Mrs. Shepherclson soon after the close of school. We again noticed that we had lost some oil our old classmates. One had joined the Sophomore Class, and one did not return. This brought our number down to sixteen. After all of us had begun to work again, two dropped out to find home more interesting. Our number was now fourteen. Our oflicers for this year were: Virginia Nelson .......... ..........,................ P resident Wilmer Hedrick ......,... ..,.....,.............. V ice-President Louise Sadowsky .,........... ........,.... S ecretary-Treasurer Our class was very interested in the activities of the School. We had seven members and one substitute on the basketball teams, four boys on the baseball team, and two on the track team. These boys and girls won us much distinction in the school. Five of our members were on the Stu- dent Council three were on the Annual staff, one president of the Athletic A, iation ,one vice-president and one secretary of the Carrie A. Lyford ssoc Home Economics Club. The vice-president, secretary and treasurer of h l One the F.F.V.'s were from our class. We also published a sc oo paper. of our number named it the Bits of N ews, and we published it with the co-operation of the entire school. After the second term, Thelma Day came to join our class, which creased our number to fifteen. Thelma won honors for our class by win- l23l
