Soon the class had establishe l a reputation for originality and pep that made it the envy of the other classes. The Christmas ,links gave the Sompomiores an opportunity to display their dramatic ability, Bud Christensen as julian Eltinge in the skit, l'VVhat Next made an unusual hit. The Freshie Hop given in the spring semester was one of the best dances of the year. The decorations were original and lent aiformal note to the affair.

Adrian Chapin Yice-President ....... .............,.. S ophus Holst Secretary ....,,......... ..... 1X Iargaret Fletcher Treasurer ....................... ......... ...,..... ..,............... Lo i s Morrison Sergeant-at-Arms .......,,.,.......................,, Eugene Landergren Executive Committee Member ,.............. Maloa Taubman The Freshman Initiation was the first event of the year. The Freshies were tried in the Sophomore Court, found guilty and sentenced to perform various stunts. judging from the applause of the audience, the initiation was a success. The Sophomores have been well represented in all the athletic activities of the school. Also a large number have been members of musical organizations. VVe have lost quite a number of our class-mates but our f'pep is still intact. We hope to keep our reputation for class-spirit and originality in our Junior and Senior years. 26
