18 THE ECHO SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS President — George Mullin Vice-President — Barbara Sears Secretary — Rose Moran Treasurer — William Sands SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY This class composed of about fifty mem- bers took its place among Sumner’s stu- dent body in the Fall of 1933. Like most Freshmen they were very g reen and pulled many “boners.” However, it did not take them long to learn, and the following De- cember they met to elect officers. Paul Wiggins, a not-so-green, was elected presi- dent; Mary Smith, vice-president; Rose Moran, secretary; Daniel Daly, treasurer. Although Daly was no Hercules, he man- anged to protect the class funds in a very able manner. For the first time in many years the Freshmen were allowed to have an enter- tainment. Perhaps it was their winsome ways that persuaded Mr. Neal. These children had a difficult time deciding just what form of entertainment they would have, as they had already heard that dances were taboo. Ideas were dragged from the head of every Freshman, and one, who was apparently brighter than the rest, suggested a Frolic. High pressure advertising was put into use, and before long the Freshman Frolic came to pass. It was a huge success, and the upper class- men had to at least give them credit for something different which made them feel pretty good. As a whole the class was very well be- haved, although Woodman proved to be somewhat of a cut-up. In Mav was added a member, George Jones, who was destined to be one of Sumner’s star football plavers, and then vacation. The Freshman Class has sud- denly vanished, and in their stead we have a bunch of fresh Sophomores. Boys came back from vacation wearing long pants, and girls minus ribbons and ankle socks. They were now bona-fide and experienced high school students — and did they feel big. This Fall an earlier meeting was held to change officers. George Mullins took Wiggins’s place as president, Barbara Sears succeeded Mary Smith as vice-presi- dent, Rose Moran held her office of sec- retary, and the class funds were turned over to William Sands. For the class play the Sophomores se- lected a comedy entitled “Sally Lunn.” It was coached biy Miss Bartlett and proved a huge success. Will we ever forget the “Barber-shop Quartet ? ” Two more members entered in the middle of the year. Both were girls, Ethel Anderson and Elinor Wilson. Ethel has gone again, and it is rumored that Elinor is planning to. The good points of this class far out- number its faults, and I am sure that the class of ’37 will be one of which Sumner will be rightfully proud. Winifred Andrew’35. Hotel Proprietor: “Do you want the porter to call you?” Luke W : “No, thanks, I awaken every morning at seven.” H. Proprietor: “Then would you mind calling the porter ? ”

THE ECHO 20 FRESHMEN CLASS OFFICERS President — Robert Potts Vice-President — William Woods Secretary — Charles Caspersen Treasurer — Ruth Clooney THE FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Classes may come, and classes may go, but Sumner will go on forever. Can you remember as far back as Septem- ber of the year 1934? Well, an important event occurred on the sixth of that month. The present Fre.shman Class came into ex- istence, with Miss Richardson, Miss Ma- guire, and Mr. Hodge as home room teachers. It was really an unusual class, too, according to one of their teachers. Not only unusual — it was unique! Said teacher declared that the majority of the little “greenies were very well behaved; they went right to work and have been working from the first. There are always exceptions to every rule, though. You see, some of them were not the angels thev should have been. Our Freshmen have had two class meet- ings, and their class officers have been elected. Several of them have become interested in various sports, clubs, and other activi- ties. There are a few in the Orchestra, the Glee Clubs, and more than a few in the Photography Club. The Science Club is strictly exclusive to the Freshmen, too. Some took different characters in the play, “Jerry Sees a Gorilla.” Even Dan Cupid has pierced the hearts of several, with his little bow and arrow. In fact, occasionally it has happened that two Freshmen have fallen for the same upper-classman ! The great majority of our friends have nicknames, such as “Smooky”, “Squeak”, “Shrimp”, and the rest. We understand that a little teamwork, as far as homework is concerned, some- times is a great help to a certain clique. Now that the Freshmen have been nuite fully and quite well initiated into Hio ' h School, they begin to wonder how manv of them will keep on doing good work for the next three years. — That’s right. Freshmen, there are three more big years of High School ahead!
