Homeroom 318A is composed entirely of girls. We have very pleasant times during this period. Besides discussing many topics that are of interest to girls, we have spelling matches, study periods and programs. Our programs are given on Friday. All of us are especially interested in our physical education work. Several of our members played on the famous basket-ball team, Nell's Bell's . This team won the class and noon game championships. We endeavor to do our best to take part in all activities of our school. Miss Reilly is our teacher. Homeroom 318B, Section 8 of B7, has a desire to be good citizens, and -as proof, we submit that we have an A average in cooperation and effort and no red ink on our cards. Every boy in the room has his ten points in scholar- ship. We have homeroom programs and other activities. We are proud of Edison, and we want Edison to be proud of us. Our officers are Kate Mycroft, Presidentg Cecil Wilson, Vice-President, Edith Norris, Secretaryg Barney Price, Thrift Representative, and Grover P-erigue, Wizard. Mr. Lewis is our sponsor. Homeroom 319B is an A7 room for girls. This is our first appearance in the Annual. We hope to continue to ap- pear as a group until we make our final bow as A9 seniors. We have made a very creditable showing in the various acti- vities of the school such as in thrift, and in the Wizard and Annual drives. At the beginning of the term, we decided to carry on our homeroom work under a definite schedule. During the first of the period, we have our business meet- ing, followed by the special activity for that day. We have had a party and are planning another for the end of the term. Mrs. Paine is our sponsor. 321A is an A8, all boys homeroom. Our room was well represented in the athletic events of the past year. Watch us next year. At Christmas time, we had a party with Homeroom 318A, Miss Reilly's homeroom. Mr. Richardson, our sponsor, reads to us. The books We have read include The Jinx Ship and The Great Quest, both from our own library. We recommend both books to other readers. Books we have read, which are not from our own library include The Hidden Trail and Messenger 483' Page N inety-nine

Homeroom 325A is proud of its athletic record. Jack Roberts, our volleyball captain, led his braves--Navarro, Copfer, Miller, Watkins, and Shiloif to an Eighth Grade Playground League victory. Our baseball team, likewise, is going out after the pennant. Four of our girls-Lucille Flores, Claudia Stanfield, Opal Berring, and Doris Campbell of the Shoot Em Thru basketball squad were Period Champions. Futhermore, Doris won the highest Decathlon honors for Eighth Grade girls. One of our most interesting activities has been a checker tournament, though, at pres- ent, the winner has not been crowned with his laurel. Mrs. Wright is our teacher. Homeroom 325B has enjoyed its second year at Edison very much. We are proud of our few Honor Roll members and winners of the Pentalphean bar. Miss Marquardt has been reading The White House Gang to us, and we have enjoyed the interesting experiences of these boys in our Nation's Capital. On Thursdays, we are entertained by our own talent, and on Wednesdays we play games. Homeroom 326B is quite alive. There are thirty-four of us who are full of pep and enthusiasm. We enjoy contests a great deal, and that may explain to a certain extent Why we experienced the thrill of being the first one hundred per cent homeroom for the Annual. We shall never forget the day that the thirty-sixth person subscribed. But we antici- pate many such big days next year so just watch us. Miss Elma H. Rogers is our homeroom teacher. Homeroom 327A has broken another non-stop record. We have been at Edison during five semesters and we are quite positive that no other homeroom class has ever done more talking or made more noise unnecessarily. We really can't understand how our teacher tolerates us. Being ninth graders, we determined to make a good scholastic record, and having achieved this, all these other things have been added unto us . Before another Edison Annual is pub- lished, we shall have passed into the third unknown of our educational flight, there to beat our former records. Mr. Thomson is our teacher.
