Early in the year we had a class party and invited the teachers. As sophomores the year started out swell. We had a roller-skating party at the Grove and afterward we had cake and hot chocolate at the schoolhouse. We picked out our class rings and are they honeys! Of course, we won't get them until next year. We expect class pins any day now. Mrs. Stebbins, our sponsor, has been swell. She's gotten angry at us, but what teacher hasn't We've had fun this year, and we're looking forward to two more years of enjoyment in B. S. H. S. page twenty-fix

Wollam In 1936 we Freshies seated ourselves firmly on a flying comet and darted into a world of unknown with Harold Burgess as our capable pilot. Smooth sailing was shared by all until we collided and were conquered by the 1937-38 planet of Wise Fools. To celebrate this great victory a dinner party was planned under the leadership of Nathan Patland which met with great success. The purchase of our class pins and an enjoyable evening of roller skating sent our planet soaring high into the heavens with Richard Pennell as a commander. Arriving at the Junior port we boarded the gallant 1938-39 planet and as our captain Chloella Ratliff gave commands to hoist the anchor. We realized our journey had come to the half way mark and two more years of high school life loomed before us. Our guiding light, Mrs. Crittendon, by popular request, again supervised our Junior destiny. The purchase of our handsome class rings gave us one of our real ihriiis. A pot-luck supper, early in the fall, followed by a scavenger hunt, was our first social attempt of the year. Everyone cooperated in a grand manner to place our personality queen, Shirley Housam, at the top for the winter High School P. T. A. Carnival. Attempting to benefit the class treasury has kept the entire class working with the sale of Christmas cards, shamrocks, and candy. During the second lap of the journey Nathan Patland took over the leadership of the group. Our play A Good Egg sent our planet rocking with laughter and added luster to our stars. Our shining path leads on with preparation for our crowning social event, the Junior-Senior banquet prom on May 25, at the Grande Vista. At the close of the year our group of 32 stars is looking forward to and anticipating the arrivals of that last fast meteor which will carry us through our Senior year.

Kidson, l . Inglcright, O. Lausch Two Freshman girls were reminiscing, in study hall, their Freshman year. The subject seemed very interesting. Do you remember the officers of the first semester? Our president was Edna Baab; vice president, Helen Botham; secretary, Helen Marske, and the treasurer was Donald Whetstone. The officers for the second semester were: Helen Botham, president; Donald Whetstone, vice president; Le Roy Lausman, secretary; and Robert Kissinger, treasurer. Mr. Hawkins was our sponsor. Speaking of our class—do you remember the Hallowe'en party we had the first semester? The entertainment included the talented, and not so talented, members of our class. I believe the refreshments were what everyone enjoyed. They consisted of cider and cup cakes. That party was a lot of fun but I believe everyone enjoyed the skating party we had last semester more. Do you remember the trouble that—? During the conversation the girls became rather noisy. They became victims of ninth hour. But then, being Freshies, they didn't mind. They could thereby continue their reminiscing. It was such fun being a Freshman! page twenty-seven
