nttsuoito When August rolled around there were sixty-three members in the Fresh- man Class who were eager to begin classes. Our members were divided into three sections. One section was under Coach Starnes while Mrs. Giles and Miss Hamilton were sponsors for the other two sections. When football practice was again resumed we were represented by Eu- gene Rutherford, Bobby True, and Sam Mumpower. After the football season was over our interest turned to basketball. In this sport the boys participating were Philip Kinder, Jimmy Whisman, and Jim Hamblen. Our girls taking part were Betty Herron, Clarice Livingston, Myrna James, Nell Laster, and Joan Tucker. We have learned by our experiences this year that the way to enjoy high school is to enter into its activities. With nine members in the band, four in the Glee Club, nine in the Latin Club, one in the Camera Club and two on the Safety Patrol, we feel that we haven ' t been at all idle. Now with our initial year in high school behind us, we are looking for- ward not only to our Sophomore term but to the remaining terms ahead of us.
