At their first class meeting the following class officers were elected: pres- ident, Orville Hable, vice president, Keith Laf- fenp secretary, Joan Bergman, treasurer, Jean Clark, and their Student Council representatives, Orville Hable, Jim Mathison, and Layne Schiebel. Their class advisers were Mrs. Bergee and Mr. Dietz. The sophomores decorated the gymnasium for Homecoming with a Fall theme. Across the center of the gym was strung the word, Home- coming , in gold letters. One corner was set apart from the gym by a trellis as an eating place. The gym itself was decorated in fall colors. The float they entered had the slogan, Stew 'em up and pass the mustard. In the center of the float was a big stew pot with a buffalo head in it. The buffalo head was to represent Buffalo Lake in the stew, our opponents for the Home- coming game. For their class trip they went to the Twin Cities to visit some of the important buildings and industries. The sophomore homecoming float.

The first really big event of the year came when the iuniors presented their play, Seventeenth Summer , on November 'I6 and l7. Orville Hable, a sophomore, accepted a part in the play to fill a last minute vacancy. When Harriet Hogg became ill, it was necessary to get .loan Fosland, who played the same part in the Bird Island play, to fill in for her. Through the direction of Miss Shirley George and the assistance of many others, the play was successful. Another exciting event for the iuniors was the choosing of class rings. After much discussion, planning, and anticipation, the iuniors entertained the seniors in Minneapolis at the annual banquet and prom on May 3. Their iunior year will be long remembered as an eventful and happy one. A iunior class party in the gym. CLASS OFFICERS SITTING, :eff 1 - M, L I mgljirea HarrietoHdlgZ.

After the movie they went to the gym to ex- change Christmas gifts, play games, and eat lunch. In March Wendell Smith, their advisor, left for Ari- zona.
