Homeroom 226A which consists of thirty-six mem- bers are a very active group of A8's section 1. In the fall of 1930 we all hope to enter the class of B9's. It is our de- sire, at the close of our eighth year, to leave records and examples which are Worthy of praise and commendation. We boast of having several in our group who have received Pentalphean and Promethean honors and We hope to con- tinue this good Work throughout our remaining year in Edison Junior High. We have as our class adviser now Miss Edith Long who is taking the place of Miss Barnes, our former homeroom teacher. Homeroom 226B started the year at Edison in true Edison fashion. Officers were elected at the second meeting and were inducted into office the third meeting. Since then all meetings have been conducted by the students through their elected oiiicers. Mr. Clifford, the sponsor, is at hand to assist ofiicers whenever they encounter parliamentary difliculties. The regular program of the week is as follows: Monday, reading, Tuesday, discussion, Thursday, speeches: Friday. singing. The students have set two main aims for their homeroom Work the first semester. These aims are cleanliness and cooperation. Homeroom 227B is certainly glad to have such a good picture in the Annual. As we are A'7s, this is our first An- n-ual and very important for that reason. We have pro- grams each Week and have been reading such an interest- ing book this spring in homeroom-- Tarzan of the Apes. We recomemnd it to any other homeroom who likes ex- citing stories. Mrs. Eckman is our teacher. Homeroom 228B, B8-2, has a varied program.. A com- mittee of three was appointed to have charge of the Week's schedule as follows: Monday, studyg Tuesday, current events and talksg Thursday, Mr. Trempe reads from That Year at Lincoln High by Golcombg Friday, games, puz- zles and program. When there is any extra time during the week, we read from various books. Once during the year we won the monthly book store check of 32.50 but have done nothing as yet with the money although We ex- pect to use it before the close of the year. Page N ine try- five

Homeroom 230A, sponsored by Mr. Wilson, has mem- bers in the Promethean, Pentalphean and Honor Roll. We are now preparing for our last semester at Edison and hope that all of our homeroom family will be able to make the grade When graduation day comes. Yes, we are B9's and during our last semester We hope to be able to set an example to the Juniors. By means of our greater experience, longer service and scholarly advancement We should be in a position to lead in behavior and cooperation in the class room as Well as in the yard and halls. Homeroom 231B is an A7 group of 15 girls and 18 boys. Besides the usual programs and parties for enter- tainment, we have been making a note book about bird life. Different chapters are on the various birds as road- makers, athletes, mimics, dancers, musicians, air police- men, divers, etc. We write a few notes about the interesting things Miss Elliott reads to us, then We draw and color the bird just written about. Our sponsor says We are get- ting much more grown up than we were as B'7's. We are glad for we hope to become the best Edisonites ever! Homeroom 232B is going to make the rest of Edison sit up and take notice before very long. We started our career at this school in February, but it didn't take us long to learn the right Way to get ahead. We started our home- room activity with a Warm contest for class oflicers. Each candidate had to make a campaign speech and some of them were as good as the speeches made by the A9 candidates for student body ofiicers. We have a large numberof boys in our room and so We are greatly interested in athletics, especially the volley ball and baseball tournaments. We also have some very good entertainers. There are uke and harmonica players, as Well as several girls Who can dance and sing. Mr. Espy is our teacher. Homeroom 315B is an A7 class- We have tried to take our part in all school activities.
