NE September clay back in 1942, Mrs. Guernsey surveyed her new freshmen class and optimistically wondered if they were going to he better behaved than their predecessors. The 136 frosh from Glen Lake, Burwell, Oak Knoll, Clear Springs and, of course, Hopkins, all took Eng--lish and general science. The one memory of general science which will probably always stick in their minds took place the day Miss Oberg had everyone line up and hold hands while she turned the handle of her little hand generator. The freshmen had their first experience in politics when they elected Ed Prochas-ka president, and Sylvia Swanson secretary-treasurer. Not to be outdone by previous classes they tried their hand at play acting for the benefit of the Junior Red Cross. Finishing up a year ACTION which passed all too quickly, was the annual picnic at Excelsior. T he next fall the 112 remaining members of the class of 1946 changed buildings. In the senior high they soon found out what the term “underclassmen means. Chuck Hall reigned as sophomore class president and strangely enough the class had very few meetings. That was the year when HHS got its new loyalty song and the mixed chorus was started. The soph athletes, who began to take their places alongside the upperclass let-termcn on field and floor, showed promise. The climax of the year was (in their estimation, as good as the prom) the sophomore class party which set a record for the number of cokes guzzled. Left to right . . .
