We were very well represented in all extra curricular activities, includ'ng declamation, scholarship football, bas- ketball, etc. Owing to their superiority in basketball and football, the freshmen were doubly entertained by the Junior High. During the carnival the Freshmen also showed their ability by putting on an exceptionally good side-show, entitled “Those Husbands of Ours,” which surpassed all others, both in results and contents. With Miss Orvick as our sponsor, we attained a worthy recognition among the upper classmen. This term, we, the sophisticated Sophomores of 1926-,27, diminished greatly in quantity, but not in quality. The class decreased from forty to twenty-six but, nevertheless, the remaining “Sophs” together with the un- tiring efforts of Miss Tomkins, our sponsor, put on a successful party during the year, following the Big Sandy-Stockett basketball game. The guests present were the high school, faculty, alumni, school board and the visiting basketball team, everyone reporting a favorable time. The bug call for track, basketball and football was wildly answered by the following Sophomore members: track, Myron Ensley, Henry Bitz, Nick Haburchak, Harley Homan, Frank Pokorny. Marinus Peterson, Mervin Gleason, Kermit Flatness and Glenn Hansen; basketball: Glenn Hansen, Nick Haburchak and Kermit Flatness; football: Myron Ensley, Glenn Hansen, Kermit Flatness, Mervin Gleason, Frank Pokorny and Harley Homan. In girls7 basketball, Phoebe Black attained a position on the first team. In this year's carnival, the Sophmores put on a “Radio Program,” as a

Mrs. Moe was our untir ing sponsor. Blue and white is our class color and our motto is “Beyond The Alps Lies Italy.” In the carnivai we ranked highest financially and we also seated our queen, this being the second time that our queen has been seated during our high school career. The officers elected for the second semester were: Perle Cline, presi- dent; Gerald Stack, vice-president; Alma Rhue, secretary and Ben Weder- king, treasurer. We took an active part in athletics, declamation, extemporaneous speak- ing and orchestra. Of the ten best extemporaneous speakers chosen to compete in the finals, nine were from the Junior class. We also donated to the High School a picture painted by Charles M. Russell in memory of this great Montanan. Our Junior class play, “Aaron Bogg’s Freshman,” was a great success in spite of the epidemics and weather conditions. Our Junior Prom to be given on May twenty-third promises to be the best Prom ever given. We especially wish to thank our sponsor, Mrs. Moe, who has so faith- fully helped us over the rough places. May we meet again next fall as dignified seniors, and when we leave Sandy High may we be remembered as a class of sturdy, untiring workers. EMMA RHUE, ’23.
