We predict he will Go the farthest. f w HISTORY icon'tj The Sophisticated Sophomores came back in the fall feeling a little more at ease about high school. The first thing we did was to elect class officers again. Jackie Gilbert, president, Pat Suhy, vice-president, Joan Ewen, secretaryg and Shirley McGregor, treasurer. Our next thought was a revengeful, spiteful one--to initiate the Freshmen ond make them feel as humble as we did the year before. We succeeded in carrying out the revenge, but a good time was had by both the Sophs and Freshies. The initiation Dance that some evening, with music by the Skyliners , was a big success. It was at that dance that we made our first profit. Some of our other money-making schemes were selling candy and having a bake sale. The semi-formal Sno-Ball dance in February was really a flop. There iust happened to be a coal strike on at the time, and the Recreation building was as cold as a real snowball!!! We ended that year by buying all the school supplies from the Juniors.

Through all of the noise and confusion fonly l25 of us lil we elected Barney Cronin, president, Anne Nolan, vice-president, .loan Ewen, secretaryj LeRoy Carie, treasurer, and chose our class colors, Blue and Gray. lnitiation only lasted one day. It wasn't too rough, but those silly bows and balloons we had to wear were the limit! Our sponsors were Mrs. Peterson and Mr. Powell. We had two class trips that year. Mr. Schoensee took our Civics class to the State Capitol, and we all got the thrill of shalcing the hand of Gov. Williams. Miss Hall took her combined studies class to Willow Run to see the Kaiser-Frazer plant and the airplanes. Mrs. Klein's class published the 9th grade paper entitled, The Little Squeak , and had coffee and cookies every morning. So that was the extent of activities in our first year of I high school.
