Both the boys and the girls had basketball teams. With such players as George Toth, Boyd Baughmzui and Glenn Pryce our class had great hopes for the boy's team. Mari- an Kolb, Andrea Heacox and Marian Strupp upheld the reputa- of the girl's team. Many of the Sophomore boys helped make up our football squad, and many of our girls were members of the Glee Club and Mixed Chorus. The officers for our Sophomore year have been: President, Howard Allison, vice president, Glenn Pryceg treasurer, Thomas Henryg and Student Council representative, Jim Humphreys. By doing our best at all times, we hope to keep up our march through high school and enjoy our studies together with our extra- classroom activities. 4235
