0 h e ,roo ie. Now you have it, now you don't: That's the Freshman-Sophomore contest results. The freshmen had the feeling of believing that they had outpolnted the higher-graders, but oh, woe! a mistake was found. As an anti-climax the sophomores were declared the real winners. A Joint party was suggested, and the battling grades compromised by sharing the expenses. Taking the lead in putting up all the decora- tions were the designers, Mary Lemoin and Doug Nichols. Eats, Koh boylj, were under the guiding hands of Reva Morris and John Miller and Jackie Ferris and Bob Jenks planned a variety of entertainment. Fore- men of the cleaner-uppers gang were Delores White and Bill Tenge. The officers of the Freshmen class were chosen at the beginning of the year. They ere: President, Joe Englesg his assistant, or the vice president, Jack Backers, minute-taker, Sarah Hoffman, and the money- holder, Toby Terry. The freshmen planned a farewell party for their elder classmen, the Seniors, et the close of the school year. So here we bid a fond adleu to the bashful, quiet, little fresh- HIGH. Standing L. to R.: Miss lillems, Mr. Winter, advisors. Seated L. to R.: Joe Engles, Jack Backers, Sarah Hoffman, John Miller, Lloyd Terry.

Seated L to R : Miss Towne, Bett 9 Fm Ja Few ears After the dust of Fair Week settled in September, 126 students returned to become members of the Sophomore class. The following class officers were elected at the first meeting: president, Clyde Wells, vice-president, Larry Furjanichg secretary, Betty Ellen Whitey treasurer, Barbara Kemp' social chairman Eugene Millerg student council representative, Joan Swihartg class advisors, Miss Towne, Mr. Letsinger. v The annual Sophomore-Freshmen 'Field-Day' was held at the ath- letic field, September 21. Not as green and timid as they were lest year, the Sophomores eventually won the contest by the close score of 71-67, although the Freshmen strongly believed for e time that they had triumphed. The groups had stipulated that the losers of the meet should give a party for the victors. Due to an error in the count which delayed the announcement of the correct returns, the two classes decided to share the expenses of the party. Three new' students joined the class in 'LL-'L5, but tragedy struck in mid-November when our beloved classmate, Eugenie Richardson, was stricken with spinal meningitis and died very suddenly. Nbw at the halfway mark, scholastioelly, we are looking forward to t wo more years of fun and work with our fellow classmates of Allegan High.
