SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY We entered high school in September of 1948 as a very innocent g.oup of “freshies”. We were lucky to have Miss Finley as our class advisor. We elected Kenneth Welton, President; Glen Nyberg, Vice- president; Ruth Steen, Secretary; Carol Smith, Treasurer. In the fall of 1949 we again entered high school as a much wiser group of sophomores. The group was so large it had to be divided into two different sections, one group going into Mr. La Due’s home room and the other half into Mrs. Torke’son’s. At the end of the first semes- ter, Mrs. Wing took over Mrs. Torkel son’s group. We elected the follow- ing class officer: Kitty Sorenson, President; Fay Harris, Vice-president; Ruth Garberg, Treasurer; Ruth Homan, Secretary. We decorated a float for the homecoming and sold tickets to the movie, ‘‘The Green Promise”, which the Sophomore class sponsored. Many Sophomores went out for basketball, football, forensics, annual staff, cheerleading, and paper staff.
