The incoming freshmen were welcomed by the sophomores at a party, which was reported to be one of the outstanding social events of the year. A return party was later given by the freshmen. The sophomores presented the Washington Day program in February, rounding out their collective activities. In January the class elected Hollister Peake vice-president to replace Frances Cook, who had moved away. The sophomores give indications of taking an active interest in all school affairs. Scholarship, debate. Torch Honor, athletics, and other organizations claim sophomore members. Class advisers are Frank M. Beer, Sarah M. Parr, and A. B. Collett. tyteAJunan cMiAtvuf, Properly initiated by the juniors by the end of September, the freshmen entered into their part in school life. Their first activity was the building of the bonfire for the football rally, which, in spite of interference on the part of upperclassmen, was one of the largest in school history. In the fall they were honored at the Senior Reception, and in December were welcomed at the annual sophomore-freshman party. This party they returned a few months later. Their social obligations over, their attention turned more to activities and scholarship. The freshman football team participated in several games with schools in Southern Oregon. They were given numerals by their coach, Otis H. Wilson, at an assembly in January. The class advisers are Dale F. Ginn, George E. Erickson, and Miss Virginia E.
