1948-'49 SOPHOMORES Carol Cleveland Thelma Senrud Florine Richards SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Twenty-eight shy but willing Freshmen made their appearance in the corridors of Carter High on the first day of September in 1947. After living through Initiation day which was September 12, we were able to see our way clear to come to the party given by the Sophomores that evening. We gave a Freshman return party two weeks later. Mr. D. V. Ludlow was our sponsor that year. Our first class meeting was held early in the spring and we elected Billy Arbuckle as president and Donald Schweigert as secretary-treasurer. How- ever, Donald withdrew from school and Donna Stieg filled the position for the remainder of the year. Carolyn Purdum was our Homecoming Queen candidate and she ran a close second to Queen- elect Wanda Waterland. By the end of the year we had only twenty-two of the twenty-eight stu- dents who started at the beginning of the year. Those students leaving were George Winkley, Joyce Davis, Gerry Baird. Dale Bockhahn. ■? Marieta Taylor
