The Sophomores-Active and Ambitious When we graduated from the Armington Grade School in 1949 there were 13 members in our class. As Freshmen in Hittle Township our number had decreased. Lila Lee had gone to Hopedale High, Robert Deterts and Joe Tackett took up farming. Lloyd Mitchell joined our class at the beginning of this year. Outside of the usual class party, our ac- tivities as Freshmen were not many. A.bake sale sponsored by our class helped fill our treas- ury. We started our Sophomore year with ll in our class. During the first semester Tommy Anderson left us to go to Kentucky to live. To raise money during our Sophomore year we helped with the carnival and had several bake sales. We donated money to the Polio Fund and have a balance on hand of about sixty dollars. CLASS OFFICERS Irene Miller ............ President Phyllis Miller.

The Freshmen-Bewildered But Eager We started our Freshman year with nineteen members. Shirley Messerole from McLean joined our class and Carolyn Turner returned to our class after a year in Bloomington. As the year passed we lost four members, Lois Houser, Gerald Bass, Grace Mullins, and Wayne Mullins. This spring Leona Waddell from Arkansas joined us. During the Freshman year we proved that we had quite a lot of sales ability. Much money was turned in by the Freshman Class during the annual magazine sales. From the sales of carnival tickets, Darlene Atteberry won the distinction of being queen. The grade school basketball. games proved an excellent outlet for us to makemoney. From the sales of popcorn, candy, and pop, we started CLASS OFFICERS a Very good savings account. Darlene Atteberry .... -...President Erma J. Powell .... Vxce-President Leta Gresham ..........
