Class Adviser The Freshmen of 1939 have been quick to catch the stride of the Hilltop, by entering into many of the outside activities during their first year. In spite of the traditional green- ish hue with which its thirty-three members are supposed to be imbued, four are members of the forensic group, seven are in the Girls' Chorus, nine are members of the Band. Freshman Elnore Zastrow is the drum major. Five of the boys belong to the F.F.A., and two girls write for the News Staff. Four members of the Class take part in orchestral work. The Frosh are proud to have a representative on the Hilltop popularity page, in the person of Betty Lou Robinson, who was voted to be the school's Most Athletic Girl. Betty Lou and Elnore were also elected as cheer leaders for next year. Athletics claimed several of the first-year people, and five girls played basketball during this, the first year in which that activity has been offered for girls. The Freshmen proved to be the guests at the first social event of the year - their initiation party given at the new athletic field by the Sophomores. They returned the honors at a party given in the grade school recreation room later. Their first bid for fame on the stage came at Christmas time when they Split honors with the Home Economics Club,in spone soring the Santa Claus Party.' 12

Ten of them belong to the band and orchestra, seven are participants in forensic work, four are serving on the weekly news staff, and five are members of the Girls' Chorus. Seven of the second- year people attained places on the honor roll at least once during the year, and Don Wetlaufer brought honor to his class by being elected to the position of llMost Ambitious Student in the Hilltopper pOpularity poll. In athletics five boys and three girls were out for basket- ball, and seven boys were members of both the baseball and the volley ball teams, The Sophomore softball and volley ball teams were defeated only by the mighty Seniors. 0n the All Star squads the Sophs were represented by five boys in soft- ball and three boys in volley ball. One of the leading social events of the year was the initia- tion party accorded the Fresh by the Sophs. This marked the opening of the new athletic field to school activities, as wall as the destruction of tons of sandwiches and barrels of cocoa. . ll
