However nineteen was not to be our final enrollment as we were lucky enough to have five more permanent students, namely: Kathey Foley, Goldie Abies, Mark Carpenter, Jerry Hogan, and Bob Larkin. One of our well-liked fellow classmen, Harold Homan, was enrolled only for a very short period of time. Many of the boys are quite athletic and participate in the sports of good ol Grant Union. Those that won letters in football are: Amos Cardwell Richard Parret Herb Ball Dennis Smith Eddie Wah Vernon Kimmel The ones winning letters in basketball are: Amos Cardwell Eddie Wah Richard Parret As was usual for the Sophomore class, in Biology, we took a course in First Aid. On March 9, Harold Patterson presented the First Aid cards to a very proud class. Our annual trip to the Fossil Beds was in April. The first of the year our class elected the following officers: President..................Eddie Wah Vice-President.............Bob Larkin Secretary-Treasurer . . . Jerry Hogan Student Council Rep. . . Richard Parret ----Dorothy Iler 11
