Sophomores MANY CLUBS AND ACTIVITIES that had been closed to the Sophomores were chosen this year. The many who were active in these organizationsAtoo many to name all of themfshowed that the Class of 1953 is going to be an outstanding one in many fields. Sandra Richards and Ruth Weiss became members of the Debate Club, and George Norton and John Eshelman were initiated into I'IifY. Whenever a play or concert was given by students, Anita Power, Norma Keil, Jon Davies, Peggy Stallone, and Jim Vergis, members of the Courtesy Club, were on hand to assist in seating the audience. Bob Cranford, Linda Barnicle and Linda Heckathorne were among the Sophomore representatives who worked hard and long on the projects of the Junior Red Cross. Janet Laughner, Carolyn Rebert, Jim Runninger and Jean Clark were only a few of our class who represented their home rooms on the Student Council and Jean Clark served on the Public Relations Committee which has done such good work each year at the time of the FranklinfOil City football game. Among the Sophomores who worked on the Projectors Club and Stage Crew were Jim Runninger, Jim Gramlich, and Jim Fleming. Faye Rhoads and Betty Lou Morrison were members of the Broadcast Staff. The Sophomore class was well represented in all the musical organizations. Allan Pedley, Don McCullough and Linda Barnicle were in the band, Coyla Ritz in the Orchestra, Mary Marshinke, Peggy Stallone, Jim Harris, Gerry McFarland, Chuck Bennett and Ruth Weiss in A Cappella, Jim Henson, Wayne Crisman and Bob Maul in Boys' Glee Club, to name only a few. We were active in many sports also. Many of us participated in Girls' and Boys' basketball and Intramural teams, we had representatives on both JV and Varsity football, and the cheerleaders were tops. We have put forth a great effort to surpass the sophomores of earlier years. During the next two years we will take our places as leaders of the school and activities. We hope that our work this year will help us to bring honor to our class and school. 'Ac ROW 1-A. Power, B. Snyder, R. Shouey, J. Neider, D. Wheeling, S. Welshans, M. Wilmouth, C. Wilkins, V.

When they came every home room in the building echoed to the question Who wants to buy a pencil today? , and the clink of nickels and dimes. In no time they were gone, and we had a sum in the class treasury against the day when we would need money to pay for the expenses of the Senior Banquet and Dance. Graduation did not seem quite so Hit away as it had before. Soon we had to prepare for the candy sales, and again the Sophomore home rooms were invaded by comf mittee members collecting promises to bring home made candy to sell at the Senior Play. We didn't ask how much the the committee bought of their own wares, but so much delicious candy is a temptation, and it was all sold before the orchestra played the first note of its first piece. By the time the -lunior Play and Musical Broadcast were presented, we were in our stride. The committee mem' hers knew just what to do and again the prettily decorated table was bare in a short time, and more dollars were added to our slowly growing treasury. Our first dance was the big event of the year for us and we were determined to make it the most unusual Sopho' more Dance ever held. We chose the theme, The Thing , and since The Thing has never been described, we'll just have to report that it was unusual. '
