o-THE EPocH,1927--M-0 H Sophomore Class History A stranger visiting Gas City High School in 1925 was heard to say, Those Seniors are the most intelligent looking bunch of pupils I have ever seen. I certainly prophesy an interesting and promising future for them. But that man was mistaken in just one respect. The group of pupils that he was speaking of were not Seniors, but the Freshman Class! Ot course there could be no mistake in the compliment which he had paid them even though the Seniors did have their gay feathers slightly ruffled. The truth is that there were twenty-seven entering high school in the fall. with an additional twenty-one joining them at mid-year, making a grand total of forty-eight. Due to their interest in all things good and the noticeable co-operation of all members, this class attained distinction in club work and other activities. One of these little green Freshies was chosen as yell leader for the high school. So are Freshies so insigniiicent, and do they contain chlorophyll? Notwithstanding a decrease in number from forty-eight to thirty-six, at the opening of the Sophomore year. quality is still one of our traits. Two of the boys were subs for the first team. five were regulars on the second team, and two girls were regulars on the girls' team. Five girls were members of the Y-Hi. fifteen of the Sophomores were prominent in Latin Club. and an additional twelve in Glee Club. An interesting record, is it not? Perhaps all this enthusiasm and desire to do and be something, originated when that man mistook these Freshies for Seniors.
