Gregg, Bob Roush, and Don Bowman. With these boys all back next year, we are quite sure that many of the opposing teams will be watchful of B. H. S. There were several sophomores on the second team in basketball; those deserving mention for their perform¬ ances during the year are Bob Schocke, Bob Markley, Gene Edington, Bud Sturgis, Lorin Taylor, and Jim Jeffries. It happens that five members of this year’s Comet Staff are sophomore girls: Alice Ann Arnold, Maxine Buroker, Agnes Mailer, Peggy Sands, and Pat Davison, who held important positions on the staff, and all proved distinctly reliable. Near the end of the school year, the class voted for a grand get-together. This was put in charge of different committees and everyone who attended had a wonder¬ ful time. The sponsors of this class for the past two years have been Miss Shively, Miss Powers, and Mr. McNown.

STARLETS Hi, ho, off with the green robes for more sophistication! Thus came the soph¬ omores to B. IT. S. at the beginning of the second year of their high school learning. When the class elections were held Junior Thurston was selected to guide the class through another year. To assist him was Richard Reineck, vice president; Doris Ann Besore, secretary; Carolyn Dotterer, treasurer; and Paul Baumgartner, represen¬ tative on the Athletic Council. To increase the class funds a bake sale was held on April 26. With the receipts which this brought, they should have a good beginning for their junior year. In this class there is very good athletic material. The following boys were mem¬ bers of the second team in football: Tom Hiatt, Gene Edington, Bob Markley, Linn 28

The freshmen, who are always considered very “green,” brought their colors to life by the lads wearing green and black cords, while the lassies dressed in bright green “sloppy joe” sweaters, black skirts, and large green hairbows. The first problem of the class as an active part of the high school was the elec¬ tion of class officers. The leader of the class, chosen by his classmates for his depend- 30
