On August 29, 1954, thirty-one slightly nervous but fairly assured sophomores strolled into the halls of Armstrong Con- solidated School to begin their second year of high school. Some believed the sophomore year would be a dull, lifeless year with nothing special to look forward to, but, as they learned, it was the year in which they seasoned themselves to the two com- ing years of high school. With basketball, band, chorus, etc., it promised to keep them busy. They firmly re solved to catch up on parties, to live up to the example set by the former sophomores Q?J, to learn something in English, and to make it the rip-roarinest year they had had yet. Do you think they did it?

Love Is Too Much Trouble A torrent of trouble descended on Joe Burke -- the latest being his restriction from the Junior Promg and all because he gave his botany professor Oggy's neutralization pills thinking they were something like aspirin. His friend, Pinky,hashistroubles -- money for the Junior Prom orchestra. That is -- until Oggy comes in to announce that he is being paid 3200.00 to be a human guinea pig. That fee would solve the problem, except that, Oggy didn't always feel noble. Only a stranger with a special drink prepared at Toasty's drink fountain at the Poison Pot provided the body for the suspended animation experiment. All these developments do not go unnoticed by the president and the dean of women. By fast action and a financial donation by Mrs. Bates, everybody's world turns right side up by the final curtain.

All with ideas that it would be terribly frighten- ing, however, we all lived through it and now find our- selves refined green freshmen. Perhaps we could say English is about our favorite class for every minute brings something different and things are far from dull. Just before Christmas we lost our vice-president, Karen Husted, so we have elected another one--Veldene Tow. We think we are doing very well for our first year. We have students in band, pep band, girls glee club, girl's sextet,boy's quartet,while others are out for speech and The Tiger Tales staff.
