UPPERCLASSMEN TO BE In September 1937-227 badly frightened children entered our secondary institution in order to quench their thirst for knowledge. The fact that they were entering as youngsters, who, four years hence, would be leaving as men and women helped them to bear the trials and tribulations that alas all freshmen must undergo before they become full pledged members of Dixon High School. During their freshmen year, these youngsters were allowed to participate in such things as the Freshman-Sophomore Literary Society, Latin Club, Home Economics Club, and Ag. Club. The athletic minded boys went out for football and basketball. Throughout the year they gained much valuable practice. Their social life was by no means neglected. The annual Freshman-Sophomore get- together was their debut to parties. Several home room parties were enjoyed during the year. Along in the Spring came the ever popular G. A. A. dance, and their freshman parties ended with the Latin-French Club dance, open to all students of these subjects and their dates. And so the months passed. Studies, sports, clubs, and dates occupied their time and minds. They no longer feared upperclassmen. They learned, however, through sad experience the value of studying-especially before exams. At last came the day when they were no longer freshmen, but were worthy to be called sophomores. Thus, their first year in Dixon high ended with all determined to have just as nice a time in their next three years as they did in their first. Last fall 225 sophomores were enrolled. Several new students joined the ranks. After duly initiating the freshmen, the sophomores settled down to the accustomed routine of school life. Now, as rulers of the under classmen, they began organizing their clubs. At the end of the first semester, all freshmen with a scholastic rating of B were allowed to become members of these clubs. In Latin Club especially they had a great deal of fun in presenting plays before their members all in Latin. This was both interesting and valuable. This winter the boys practiced in earnest for all sports. The result was a B team in the two major sports, football and basketball, composed entirely of sophomores. Outstand- ing heroes of this class are McNichols, Buxton, Buggs, Kelley, Witzleb, McNamera and Schultz. Several of these boys played on the regular team. All indications prove that Dixon will continue to have championship teams in '40 and '4l. Other sports participated in were track, tennis, and golf. Sports were not their only high point, for whenever the honor roll came out, several sophomores' names appeared showing their outstanding scholastic ability. Thus as their second year draws to a close, they look back, not without regret, upon all their good times and pleasant memories they have experienced within these past two years. And now to the other classes of Dixon High School who have not, for some reason or another, fully appreciated this fine class with superior ability in sports, studies, and out- standing outside activities, to you we give- the juniors-to-be.
