SOPHOMORES SNAPS On September l, 1958, fourteen sophomores entered Cook's new school bui ingg twelve of which had attended the preceding year and two that had ransferrad from Burr. We were welcomed by Mr. Jerry Mullins, whom we chose as class sponsor. We were required to take the subjects: biology, world history, and English. We had the choice of driver's training, typewriting, or both. Everyone took all five subjects. We feel that we have done very well and learned a great deal in this past year. We elected class officers as follows: president, Ronald Grundmannf vice-president, Joyce Haeffnerg secretary-treasurer, Alverna Peterseng and news reporter , Diane Ellig. Iva Dell Behrens, and Gary Schacht ware' elected to the Student Council. We have done many things together this Last year. We were well represented at ball games by Iva Dell Behrens who was chosen as one of our high school cheerleaders. Our class also is proud that we won the first prize in the homecoming display contest. Several . representatives from our class participated in the various sports.

Gary Schacht, Ronald Grundmann, and Ray Doeden received letters in two andfor three -sports, basketball, football, and track. Our class had a major part in the preparation of the Athletic Banquet which was held on April 21, 1959. Our guest speaker was James D. Levitt, Professor of English at Peru. We decorated the gym with orange and black streamers on one wallg a large reproduction of the school building drawn by our classnate, , Alverna Petersen, on the north wallg pictures of the four sports and the balls to go with these sports decorated one wallg and the fourth wall contained banners of every school that we met in competition during this past year. The tables were decorated with balls, dolls that were dressed in the appropriate sport attire, nets or goals or bankboards, and nutcups and programs that resembled scoreboards. A marvelous meal was served by our school cooks. The entire community was invited and we all enjoyed ouselves. On March 13, 1959 , our class gave a St. Patricks Day dance for the entire high school and faculty.

Mrs. Rosa Grundmann, Mrs. Albert Schacht, and our instructor, Mr. Mullins, furnished transportation. On the way home we had lunch at the Skyview Drive-In.
