The most outstanding among them were Joan Bezek, Shirley Bissonnette, Kathryn Eisaman, Joyce Englehart, Barbara Hahn, Gaye Hunt, and Carol Makin. Many sophomores were also active in the band, chorus, orchestra, and photo club. Leroy Williams and Nancy Zobel successfullly entered the Forensic League, Nancy in the alto contest and Leroy in the trombone contest. Barbara Hahn led the cheers as a member of the cheerleading squad, while Gaye Hunt and Barbara Marshall were majorettes. This year's sophomore class had two class parties, one of which was the annual class party while the other Student Council awarded to them because they were the first class to have all their dues collected. Another great success of this class was the assembly, giving their pres- entation of parts of South Pacific, the popular Broadway musical. This was ably supervised by their advisors. Miss Allendorfer, Mrs. Wineman, and Miss Gerhardt. The annual spring dance of the sophomores was presented March 30. The members of the class of '53 have shown through their work in class activities and their participation in clubs and teams that they are capable of handling the responsibilities that will soon be theirs.
