v J SOPHOMORES .As freshman, -we looked up the trail of our four years to come and wondered if--if—if----. Yet here we are sophomores with our first steep climb behind us. We've liked being sophs — and we'll Just whisper this— we expect to like being Juniors. September 23, 1937 saw us under way. We met with Mrs. Carl Parks, our advisor, and held an election which rosuited in Georgiana Best being chosen president; James Jenkins, vice-president; and Mavis Shippee, secretary-treasurer. Wo decided to meat the last Wednesday of each month to make class plans and to pay our dues of ten cents oach. The treasurer's report showed a balance of $13. 98, We have added to this sum by the sale of magic’ slates and candy. We had grand fun cn a mid-winter sleigh ride and we are planning a spring party at the present time. Two of our members have dropped out of School during the year so now we are five: Georgiana- the pilot- who blithly doth steer Mavis- the secretary- gay and sincere Francis- the funster- with tricks quite replet Helga- the brave- who admits not defeat James- the silent- the ever discreet. SOPHOMORE FORUM The sophomore forum was organized as an activ- ity in Miss Park's English II class. Meetings have been held every Friday during the class period. Besides trying to present varried pro- grams, the members have been interested in the methods of conducting public forums.
