They were christened the Sophomores and set forth into the new mysterious unknown (commonly known as the senior high) For the first few weeks we were a bit shaky, but it didn't take us long to establish ourselves, and we found we really liked it. There are several things we have accomplished so far this year. Some of our boys got on the football team, and deserve a lot of credit for their fine showing. Our fine second team in basketball is made up almost entirely of Sophomores. We have representatives in nearly everything else, too; even intramurals, when the boys manage to whip up an eligible team. New additions to our class this year are strictly from the masculine side of the fence. Dave Franklin from Philadelphia, Dick Schmidt from Cleveland,- and Jim Clay-pool from Canada, add new faces and graces to our group. Our class officers are as follows: Jack Starm, president,- yours truly, vice-president; Joann Schultz, secretary-treasurer; and Pat Gundry, delegate-at-large. We like the senior high and hope that it likes us, 'cause we’ve got two more years to spend here and if those two years are as nice as this one has been, we'll surely be a sorrowful class of '44.

By FAE LINDLOFF Long, long ago in the year 1931 A.D., a small rivulet, the present junior class, joined the broad stream that is the Delavan Public School. This little rivulet has been gaining strength and will soon be able to branch out in a stream of its own. Throughout the years the stream has decreased from evaporation' and other elements have caused its growth. Heading this stream are: Clarence Daly, who is president; Jack Evans, vice-president; Ruth Mary Rice, secretary and treasurer; and Keith Merrifield, who, as delegate-at-large must see that we get an equal chance and opportunity when there is an activities meeting and the different courses are plotted Right now this little rivulet is flowing along very smoothly. Now and then two little ripples meet and cause a splash (You know, boy meets girl.) No, we are no different than any other stream. We have our steep spots and slow sluggish days, and our laughing, bubbling days. Yes, and we have muskies and minnows, too (17)

McCord. tesl tesiimaii By SAM KARSTEN The class of green'' freshmen began the school year of ‘41-42 with 82 members, sixty-three coming from the preceding eighth grade class and the remaining 19 from surrounding schools in our vicinity. As their superiors they chose the honorable James McLaughlin, president; Sam Karsten, vice-president; Joyce Bailey, secretary-treasurer; Jackie Elithorp, delegate-at-large, and Mr. Thostenson for our all-around helper. Of course, we brilliant freshmen thought we knew all until we began taking English, civics, general math, and all of the other studies and outside activities. We also thought we owned the junior high, until the teachers showed us differently. So alter all our disappointments, we took it with a grain of salt, and began to try and settle down, which most of us found hard to do, and attempt to learn something. Before we knew it, and just as we were settled down, and almost beginning to learn something, the freshman year had passed, and our first high school year was over, with three more to struggle through. 09)
