The Sophomores OFFICERS President ..................... Bill Victor Vice-president .........................Iris Rude Secretary .....................Freda Spencer On Monday morning, September 4, 1939, ninety-four of us entered the doors of old Casey High ready for another school term. We were happy that we were now able to consider ourselves upperclassmen and no longer needed to be called freshies. At our first club meeting this year the following were elected as new officers: president, Bill Victor; vice-president, Iris Rude; secretary-treasurer, Freda Spencer. The sophomore class was well represented in sports. With the opening of the football season the following boys reported: Owen Kilborn, Stanley Poffinbarger, Leland Williams, Victor Orrell, Bob Lawrence, Wayne Hish, Junior Sharp, Hobert Glosser, Harold Comer, Gene Colbert, and Bill Victor as manager. Owen Kilborn, Bob Lacey, Dwane Carrell, Joe Sharp, Frank McCash, Victor Orrell, Leland Williams, Joe Cassidy, Wayne Hish, Hobert Glosser, and Hartman, Freda Spencer. Don Hutton represented us in basketball. The sophomores have also found their place in the music department. There were many sophomore band members, and the mixed chorus also had its sophomore members. Jerry Roan, Bill Victor, and Wanda Garner were on the BROADCASTER staff. At the annual homecoming game we had two queen attendants: Wanda Garner and Charlotte Austin. The sophomore debate team was made up of Ruth Chrysler, Betty Kite, Bill Victor, and Evelyn Dixon. After a happy and profitable year we feel that we are now able to join the ranks of upperclassmen of Casey High. Miss Kathryn Hartman and E. C. Gordon were our class advisers this year. 29 FLAME

Officers and Advisers Miss Heetland. Kenneth Cutler. Paul Cook. Mr. Rawlinson. Betty Staley (no picture). Our youngest OFFICERS President ................ Kenneth Cutler Vice-president ......... Paul Cook Secretary....................Betty Staley Early in September, eighty-three of us freshmen entered Casey High in high spirits. After a few days in searching for classrooms and learning our way about, we settled down to routine work as members of the student body. The freshmen class elections resulted in the appointment of Kenneth Cutler as president, Paul Cook as vice-president, and Betty Staley as secretary and treasurer. Miss Bertha Heetland and K. B. Rawlinson were class sponsors. We were well represented in all activities this year. When the call was issued for football, the following boys responded: Bill Arney, Harold Ballinger, Kenneth Cutler, Rex Johnson, Charles Sherman, Leon Reeder, Clifford Smith, Norman Ulrey. The following boys went out for basketball: Paul Cook, Harry Eumont, Harold Ballin- ger, Charles Sherman, Norman Ulrey, Bill Arney, and Russell Comer. By the end of the first semester we were beginning to realize that school was not all fun, as some of us must have believed judging by our report cards. We had already resolved to try a little harder next semester . At the end of the first semester, scholastically, Claribel Morton and Pauline Philippi had high honors; Bill Arney, Melva Brandenburg, Bill Fouty, Juanita Huffman, and Betty Staley had honors. Several of us also found our way into the band and chorus. Several of the boys joined the F. F. A., and several of the girls G. A. A. Our queen attendants at the homecoming football game were Betty Staley and Martha Jean Ruffner. 1940 30
