w5i E, THE Sophomores of East High, have much to relate concerning our educational activities and pleasures. After enjoying a happy vacation during the summer, we again walked proudly over the bridge, no longer terrified Freshies, but now dignified Sophomores, serene in our knowl- edge of the school. We cannot help but feel quite grown up as we direct the younger set to their prospective rooms and classes. , Our domineering power has somewhat lost its novelty when we meet Caesar face to face in Latin translations and realize that Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars are as difficult for us to convert into the English language as they were for the great general to win. Geometry also has offered its trials to test our intellectual abilities, but win we must, as those who preceded us have done. The football and basketball games have been well attended by the C grade. The boys with some exceptions, although now incapable of taking part as players, gladly lend their voices, accompanied by those of the opposite sex, to rooting, which often turns defeat to victory through the encouragement so loyally given by the Sophomores. We now try to see into the coming high school years and cannot help imagin- ing ourselves in A or R grade, participating in grander social activities than those the past and present Juniors and Seniors have enjoyed. We hope that these pleasures will sometime in the near future be realized by the present C grader, when he or she has attained the standing of the higher grades. We hope that the worthy teachers who have thus far so carefully instructed us, will remember the Class of '23 as one which strove for a higher goal despite the enviable record attained by the preceding Sophomore class.
