1926 ZTHE .HTALANTA A1926 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On September lst, 1924, a group of green, awkward and sorry-looking human beings marched in through open portals of A. C. H. S. and prepared to meet the trials of that school much to the disgust of their superiors, the class of '27 and the faculty. After they had fully recovered from the reaction caused by their new environment they convened and chose the following officers: Miss Brack- ney, class adviserg Joseph King, presidentg Delmar Houghton, vice presi- dentg Raymond Begolka, secretary, and Mildred Foote, treasurer. Little by little through the untiring efforts of Miss Brackney, our Beacon Light, and by proper cultivation, the class progressed until they had reached a stage worthy of being called High School students. But behold the class of '28 in the fall of '25! Could it be possible that the well-groomed sedate class is the same that marched into High School last fall to assume the duties of Freshies? Most certainly, as our experience as Freshmen influenced us to such an extent that we are now one of the bright lights of A. C. H. S. We again met, organized our class and elected these officers: Mildred Foote, presidentg Delmar Houghton, vice presidentg Bertha Becker, secretary-treasurer, and Miss Brackney again as our adviser. We thus far have attracted much attention by giving the Sophomore party during which we initiated the Freshies. We are now setting a splendid example for the Freshmen, who are trying to follow our footsteps by be- coming stately in bearing and well-behaved in manner. So hats off to the class of '28! And may it blossom forth as the most remarkable class in High School to have its fame recorded with other famous classes in the chronicles of Atlanta Community High School.
