THE ISLANDER ----BH Sophomore Class In reviewing the events, achievements, the outstanding characters and characteristics of the Sophomore class, one is immediately impressed by the balanced display of activities. The worth of a class to a college is measured by its participation in and support of all the activities deemed necessary to make a college collegiate. To begin with A, athletically the Sophomore class undoubtedly ex- cels all other classes. The placing of six men on the football squad gave them a certain importance in the estimation of Coach Uhls. In the fairly successful basket ball season, the Sophomore class scored a winner by placing five men on the team, a feat rarely duplicated in college history. In track the Sophomore men have proved the value of athletic training in other activities. Not only are the second year men capable of co-operating with representatives of other classes in ranking Grand Island a college among colleges, but also have showed a bit of sectional independence in inter-class contests. Thinking that the winning of the intra-basket ball tournament would be a proper expression of class ego, the Sophomore men promptly annexed it. To the project of a winning debating team, the Class contributed Mr. Rice and Mr. Parker. Others of the class worked in the Glee Club, in Mr. Switzer's band, in fact every organization in the college has felt the prom- inence of this group. If any deficiency were to be sought to bind this re- markable class to sordid earth, there might be mentioned a certain lack of class social functions. This fault owes its being to the popularity of class members in all other activities rather than to any hermitical ten- dencies on their part. ' The class of '30 hopes to be more fortunate in retaining their mem- bers than many second year classes are. However, whatever the quantity, the college can depend on the quality of next year's class, the same old stuff, only more so. CLASS OFFICERS President .........................
