S. amazed and bewildered at the largefiterritory which we were about to cover. We were rousted and jostled about by Mr. Phillips, Mrs. Whiting, and Mr. Burbank, who seemed to think that we were in need of much training. As the following spring approached we felt that we had been very slow about school activities, but expected to do much better the next year. However, we had these students taking top rank as honor pupils: Bernice Russell, Carroll Rector, John E. Austin, and Arthur Ammon. Our one social event of the year was a party ,held in the afternoon at the gymnasium. ' Games were played, after which refreshments were served, thus making it a great affair. September, 1955, found fifty-three sophomores entering the same halls but you'd never know that we were the same group that had entered the year before. It seemed that we knew so much more and now as we look at the freshmen coming in we know that we could never have acted as they do now. We were sorry to lose our principal, Mr. Lollar, and coach, Mr. Hodges, of the previous year. We now welcomed to our faculty, Mr. Flener as assistant principal and Mr. Evans as our coach. Mary Baker and Jack Thorne, who had attended school at Harrisburg their freshman year, joined us now. The following teachers assumed the task of teaching us this year: Mr. Flener, Mr. Evans, Miss Mathis, and Mr. Burbank.
