As sophomores we walked through the halls with an air of assurance. No longer were we being taunted by seniors who tried to sell us elevator passes. We were becoming more familiar faces, greeted as we walked from class to class, and in our classes, the percentage of people we recognized had increased greatly. Now that we had come through our disorganized freshman days, we started to take an interest in the varied extra-curricular activities. What is our school government like? How does the G.O. function? Which political party should I join? How does one become a member of the Forum staff? I wonder if I'll be able to qualify for membership in Arista? These were just a few of the questions we asked now that we were organized and had the time to explore our school. During our sophomore year the faculty and the students were sorry to hear of the retirement of our very able and respected Principal, Mrs. Edith M. Ward. A surprise tea was held to honor Mrs. Ward's ninth anniversary as Principal of Flushing High School. It turned into a real surprise when Mrs. Ward announced her plans of retirement. Mr. Waring then assumed leader- . ship of the school as acting Principal. In March of our sophomore year we received our new Principal, Mr. Arthur Franzen.

This, of course, was the ideal time to take a regents. There we sat, in pools of perspiration, trying to find the square root of 32145 .... We continued on our adventures and found ourselves in our junior year. We can remember cheering our Red Devils to victory after victory, and awarding a prize for the craziest socks at the football game on Crazy Socks Day. Dancing away the year, we drifted from the Winter Wonderland Dance in December, to the Evening In Paris Dance in May, and, cruised up the l ,X Q '- cv .
