Sophomore Class History Here we are launched as Sophomoresl On September 2, 1935, forty-two freshmen entered Codorus Township High School. Several weeks later we lost two members, Adeline Donnan and Robert Albright, who trans- ferred to other schools when they moved from this district. During the second semester of our hrst year, Beulah Trone, Rush Sieg, and Russell Snyder withdrew. Our first year in high school meant quite a change to us, for we found we had to spend most of our time working in order to complete assignments. May 29, 1936 brought us a grand sigh of re- lief, at least, we seemed glad to go on vacation for a little while. Soon after school opened, in September, 1936, when we assembled as sophomores, we elected officers for the year. Charles I-lamme was elected president, William Haines, vice- presidentg Martha Crone, secretaryg Theda Stine, treasurer, George Grote, historian, Anna Smith, reporter. Several weeks later, because of the death of his father, Charles Hamme had to leave school. William Haines then became president. Clyde Shearer was elected vice-president. Arlene Stine, Jennie Kessler, Ethel Ingram, Catherine Cramer, and Leroy Meckley withdrew in order to follow other activities. Marvin Walker left school at the end of the Hrst semester of this year. Our class now numbers thirty, we do earnestly hope that we shall have to lose no more pupils. Our motto, Be Preparedlvg our flower, Lily of the Valleyg and our colors, Blue and Silver, all selected during the first year, remain the same. During our second year we made ourselves useful in many activities-basketball, base- ball, and other sports. In debating, Mildred Bowman represented our class. Martha Crone and Bessie Lehman, both alternates in the debate, came from our class. In Literary Society and Science Club we did our duty by serving as best we could. On the High-Lites Staff, Martha Crone and Ortha Bortner did excellent work throughout the year. Although school seems to present many difhculties for us, we hope, now that we are half way through, to be able to hold to the course we have chosen. G. G.

Freshman Class History On September 7, 1936, twenty-seven ninth graders appeared at C. T. H. S. to begin a new type of work. How bashful some of them were! The shyness lasted only a very short time. A week after school opened, Lucreta Wagner withdrew, she did not like high school work. Perhaps she did not give it a sufficiently long trial. A week later Betty Gladfelter joined our class, now we again had an enrollment of twenty-seven. ' On November 9, Margaret Mulligan began work with us, a week later, her sister, Cecelia, joined our class. Both the girls transferred from ninth grade in Quakertown High School, Quakertown, Pennsylvania. Mr. Bushey, our class adviser, called a class meeting, after we had had sufiicient time to learn to know everyone in the class. Ac this time we selected the following officers: President, Gordon Snyder, vice-president, Charles Brenneman, secretary, Romaine Smith, treasurer, Virginia Burns, historian, Vera Krebs, class reporter, Florine Warner. Soon after that we had another meeting to select the class Hower, the Carnation, the colors, Maroon and White, the motto, Paddle Your Own Canoe. This motto should be a good guide for us, it should remind us that we do our work ourselves. In school activities during the year, the freshmen have done their share. Several joined the Science club. All served on Literary Society programs, most of the freshmen became interested in basketball. Our class work seemed difficult, we needed quite a little while to become acquainted with the new work. Now that we have made the start, we do hope to continue. Ar the end of the first semester, Percy Shearer, because of ill health, discontinued school. We are indeed sorry to lose another classmate. May the rest of us remain firmly united and definitely resolved to return as alert sophomores, next fall. V. L. K., '40.
