Sophomore History In the fall of 1949 the Class of '53 returned to G.H.S. to discover that we had lost three members—Myrtle Row, Joslah Blackmore, and Kenny Fallor. Since we have also gained three members, we are still he largest class In Greenwich High. As should be the case in a l«arge class, we are wexx-represented in all activities. Nine of our members play in the band, two are major- ettes, eleven sing in the glee clubs and fourteen are in the mixed chor- us . Sophomores are not lacking in athletic ability. Dunn and Schantz are on the varsity basketball squad, and on the reserve are McLaughlin, Brown, and Shafer. Bill Schuller is team manager. In baseball—Dunn, Shafer, Lykins, McLaughlin, Brown, Schantz, and Fast promise good teams for the future. ¥ On the annual staff Bernice Helwlg is Sophomore editor and Jim Schantz is photographer. Our social activities have been quite limited. In the freshmen year our big affair was, of course, our initiation by the seniors. Early this year we enjoyed a hayride to the home of Barbara Kramer, There, under a magnificent display of northern lights, in the shadow of a haunted barn, we devoured huge quantities of cider and weiners. The ride home in the horse-drawn trailor, driven by George Moss was the most enjoyable part of the evening. On March 17, we held a skating party in Mansfield. Including guests, there were about twenty-five present. Mrs. Ehzor acted as chaperone. Our first attempt at making money was at the Fireman's Ball in October, when our class had the refreshment concession. The class officers this year are; president, Bernice Helwig; vice- president, Charles May; secretary, Robert Lykins; treasurer, Jim Schantz. —Bernice Helwig. This page sponsored by Troxel Farm Supply
