fflass of ’41 (TO LING the smallest c’ass in high school, the sophomores are apparently rath- er timid about drawing too much attention to themselves. Individual ac- complishments and their social success, however, cannot be overlooked. In September 1937 we held our first class meeting and elected John Gilbertson, president; Lee Dooley, vice president; Norma Micklesen, secretary: and Jean Carlson, treasurer. Miss Jones was selected for our class adviser. The enrollment of our class was then fifty-nine. To introduce themselves to us and to show us how to relax from the routine of study we had already taken up, the seniors entertained us at a dinner dance early in the fall. Few of us actually relaxed for we had never danced before. However, every freshman made a fine attempt, and at the close of the evening we felt we had made a good beginning in the art of dancing and were ready for another party. I ater we entertained the seniors at a Kiddie party and they, as well as we. had a grand time in short skirts, carrying rattles and lolly- pops. During our first year, several freshmen entered glee club, band, debate, declam, and athletics. Five boys in our class played on the junior high basket- ball squad. Virginia Parsons well represented our class in all girls’ athletics. Robert Simonson added to the class accomplishments by being the only under- classman to place in the school declamatory contest. In the fall of our second year in high school our class enrollment was down to forty-nine. During the year, five more members left the class roll. We .again chose John Gilbertson for our class president and Miss Jones, adviser. Other sophomore class officers were Tom O’Brien, Patricia Ryan, and Cleo Helium. Chester Anderson, Rueben Richie, and Lee Dooley are already out- standing football players and to pep things up Wallace Jelinek joined the staff of cheer leaders. Cleo Helium and Wal’ace Jelinek both made fine showings in the school elimination declamatory contest this year. Chester Anderson was selected to represent our school in the extemporaneous reading contest in the league contest. Several members of the class were admitted to the Tachoperas club this year. In March, the sophomore and senior classes sponsored a basket social for their members. Prizes were awarded for the most cleverly decorated bas- kets. We danced to the tunes of a Wurlitzer, which unfortunately broke down in the middle of the evening. Spirits undaunted, we concluded the evening’s entertainment with Chinese checkers and other games, and despite the difficulty, th;‘ seniors and sophomores had a fine evening. Now we are hopefully looking forward to next year when we sponsor “the” social event of the year, the Junior Prom. 23 n sume
