The class put the freshmen through a stiff test con- sisting of short dresses, short pants, unpaired anklets, and milk bottles. They had to carry books and stay off the inlines. The dutch dance was an all-school affair, the idea being that each date pay his-or her-own way. It was held in the gym of the Riverside school. Alice Frank was in charge of the affair. Other activities included the Thanksgiving program, which was an interpretation of several of the faculty, choosing class rings, presentation of the play Through the Keyhole , sponsoring the junior promg and partici- pation in the annual flunk day at jackson Hot Springs. During their freshman year, the students elected Bud Pruess as president, Dick Espey, vice-presidentg Aldine Ownbey, secretaryg Warren Thomas, treasurer, and Earl Hall, student council representative. As sophomores they elected Dick Espey as president, Frances Cook and later Hollister Peake, vice-presidentg Betty McAdam, secretary, Dale Fuller, treasurer, and Florence McCullough, student council representative.

In half a day, however, the little freshies had hauled several more truckloads of trash and rebuilt the fire in time for the rally. The class has carried this courageous spirit into its sophomore year by taking part in all school activities, in- cluding the student body carnival. The sophomores entertained the freshmen in the fall at the sophomore-freshman party, and were entertained by them at the freshman-sophomore party in the spring. They also gave a Washington's Day program in February for the entire student body. Individual members of the class were active also- Edi Martin as one of the school yell leaders as a member of the girls' trio, Billy Davis . a mem r of the varsity tennis team, and the sophomore officers as members in student council. The class inaugurated a novel and clever plan during the second semester for introducing the blue and yellow pennant to the rest of the school-a ceremonious unveil- ing of the banner before the entire student body. Last year's officers were as follows: Billy Davis, presi- dent, Ann Hood, vice-president, Marion Campbell, secretaryg Harold Bormuth, treasurerg and Donald Mar- tin, student council representative.
