SOPHOMORE HISTORY As the sophomores began their second year they knew the ropes and felt more sure of the course they would be taking. To keep the class organized and ready at all times, they elected Alton Bennett, president; Marylyn Wensloff, vice-president; Reynolds Cordes, secretary; and Neil Will, treasurer. Richard Groos held the all-“A” record for his class the first semester. Richard Allerding and Ronald Martin did excellent work in football, being the only soph- omores to receive letters — meanwhile Robert Branch, William Kruko, and Leland Christian- sen did the honors in basketball by showing outstanding ability. Richard Allerding showed up very well in baseball, with Robert Branch doing an outstanding job in track. Girls who were outstanding in sports this year were Fern Bliss, Norma Hollister, Helen Walldorff, Mary Ellen Kelly, and Kathleen Shellington. The second semester found Marylyn Wensloff still holding her position as vice-president, while Lachlan Foster took over the presidency; Jane Mullen kept the books; and Carol Good- year took care of the finances. Robert Branch was treasurer of the Faculty- Student Council the first semester. Neil Will served as secretary of theFaculty-StudentCoun- cil the last semester, besides being a member of the Sanitary Commission, while Alton Bennett served on the Public Service Commission, with Kenneth Smith taking over the chairmanship of the Traffic Commission. Norma Hollister, Maryjo Baulch, and Carol Goodyear did very well in representing their class in cheerleading this year. Miss Alice Dontje and Mr. Carl Damson were advisers for the sophomore class.

FRESHMAN HISTORY Another school year rolled around with the “Freshies” as bewildered as ever. However, they were all very eager to get started and find out about the life they would be leading in the next four years. We see they got off to a good start by choos- ing their leaders wisely with Robert Smith, president; Ann McDonald, vice-president; Dorothy Reynolds, secretary; and Barbara Long, treasurer. Patr;c:a Wedel led the class in scholastic standing with an al!-“A” record in the first semester. Thomas Feldpausch, Robert Smith, Phillip Coldren, Robert Bradford, and Richard Knopf showed outstanding initiative by their regular attendance in both football and basketball. Phillip Coldren proved to be the all-round freshman boy, being out for three sports besides having a high scholastic record. The freshman girls were not lacking in sports ability. We find Patricia Harrington, Barbara Long, Nancy Clark, and Barbara Gillons out- standing. Besides this we have Patricia Me Keough, Patricia Davis, and Fanchon Paige who did some grand cheerleading this year. Marilyn Hammond and Mary Alice Rein- hardt placed first and second in the final school declamation contest. They presented “More Terrible than All Words” and “Remember Bataan! Remember Corregidor!” As the second semester rolled around the freshmen elected Robert Foster, president; Richard Knopf, vice-president; Ann McDonald, secretary; Dorothy Reynolds, treasurer. Gary Cooper represented their class on the Public Service Commission. Mr. Gies’s homeroom, 204, still led in stamp and bond sales. Freshman advisers were Mrs. Wesley Rundio and Mr. Tac Gies.
