SOPHOMORE CLASS IS SECOND LARGEST Many Have Interesting Hobbies for Leisure Time—Wayne Fleetwood Has Rare Collection of Stamps In comparison with the rest of the senior high school classes, the sophomore class ranks second in size with two hundred two students who come from various grade schools and ap- proximately eleven high schools of nine differ- ent cities. These include the following schools of Kansas City, Kansas: Central Junior, North Kansas City; Northwest Junior, Ward and Wyandotte. The following cities in Kansas are represented: Shawnee, Erie, Leavenworth, Turner and Pittsburg. Class officers are president, Clyde Andrews; vice-president, Clarence Baker; secretary, Mari- anna Bems and Robert Beck; treasurer, Ray- mond Conley; cheer leader, Emory Cooper. Several sophomores spend their leisure time on such hobbies as stamp collecting, making of paper dolls, singing, cooking, saving coins, and knocking golf balls. Wayne Fleetwood owns a rare collection of stamps. He has between 2,500 and 3,000 speci- mens from more than 175 countries. His most valuable stamp is the Flying Horse air mail stamp from Uruguay. The smallest specimen is nine-sixteenths of an inch by three-fourths of an inch from Vatican City. The largest is one and eleven-sixteenths by one and one-eighth of an inch that came from Spain. Approxi- mately 500 of his stamps came from Germany where he exchanges stamps with several Ger- man boys. One specimen has a pre-war value of 50,000,000 marks or about $11,900,000 in American money. Maxine Cole has the hobby of collecting and making paper doll clothes, but wishes it to be understood that she does not play with dolls. Raymond Conley's hobby is singing to him- self; Raymond McDonald's hobby is doing most of the cooking at home. Clyde Andrew's hobby is saving coins, and that of Olin Tippett is knocking golf balls away. A sophomore activities committee was or- ganized by the sponsors, F. S. Hoover and Miss Edna Barnes, at the beginning of the year. The council has twenty members and its duty is to be in charge of all activities of the sopho- mores for the year. The members are Clyde Andrews, Anna Walker, Clarence Baker, Robert Beck, Jack Campbell, Harold Gentry, Warren Gibbs, Richard Lee, Paul Maden, Ernest Stone, Maxine Cole, Mildred Corman, Dorothy Cross- ley, Ruth Heckman, Evelyn Plunk, Sue Presley, Dorothy Studdard, Hazel Trent, Elsie Wolf, and Patricia Worrall.

NINTH GRADE CLASSES LEAD ENROLLMENT New Feature of Year Is Special Mixed Chorus Which Gives Students Knowledge of Glee Club Work The freshman class had an enrollment of 215 students at the beginning of the school term. Only nineteen students were dropped by the end of the first semester leaving 196 in the class at the close of the year. This is an increase of forty-three students over the enrollment of last year, and remains the largest class enrollment in the school. The class was made up of students coming from twenty-four different schools. The schools in Kansas City are: Noble Prentis, Stanley, Emerson, St. John, Junction, Franklin, Lowell, Central, Oak Grove, Northwest Junior, Clara Barton, and the John J. Pershing School. Some of the cities represented are: Crossville, Ten- nessee; Jefferson City, Missouri; and Cardin, Oklahoma. The following cities in Kansas are represented: Holliday, Leavenworth, Raven- wood, Overland Park, Madison, Banner and Sublette. This year the ninth grade class has been offered a special mixed chorus class to give the students with special talent more knowledge of the glee club work. This class had an enroll- ment of thirty-three. The ninth grade students participate in many of the activities of the school. There were fif- teen girls in the Girl Reserves. Mary Elizabeth Burch was president of the Junior Girl Reserves. Twenty boys played on the junior high basket ball team, and the freshman class had the fol- lowing six representatives in the Student Coun- cil: Dayton Jenkins, Robert Bradbury, Dorothy Jean Gould, Mary Elizabeth Burch, Virginia King, and Ruth Bruce. In the freshman English classes clubs were organized under the instruction of Miss Henri- etta Conrad. These clubs held meetings once a week during the class period. The freshman class was represented in the school band by twelve members. The ninth graders also played an outstand- ing part in school sports. Edith Anderson and Margaret Harmon won the deck tennis tourna- ment in the junior high, while the freshman volley ball team was successful in winning the junior high tournament. The junior high girls' athletic association sponsored a Hallow-e'en party, October 29, in the gymnasium. In order to receive a diploma a ninth grade student must have made fifteen units during his junior high school years. He must take English, home making (girls), physical training, and civics during his freshman year. The majority of the students intend to enter the senior high school after graduation. The students elected these officers this year president, John Broomfield; vice-president, Lois Jean Burns; secretary, Margaret Stevens; treas- urer, Treasure Lloyd; and cheer leader, J. D. Thomas. Miss Henrietta Conrad, a new member of the faculty who teaches English, history and civics was the class sponsor. Other new ninth grade teachers were Miss Alma Brown who teaches physical education and health; Miss Lucille Landis, instructor of history, English, and business arithmetic; and Mr. Arthur Jolliff who teaches beginning strings and band.
