H. C. H. S. WINNADA 1926 SOPHOMORE HISTORY SEPTEMBER 2, 1925 a group of fifteen Freshmen entered H. C. H. S. and were greeted by the upper classmen with paddles. On Septem- ber 6, much to our sorrow, but very much to the delight of the upper classmen, we were initiated into the mysteries of high school. A few days after this officers and a class advisor were elected. We gave a very successful Frosh Glee on Hallowe’en. The hall was decorated in Hallowe’en colors. In January more Freshmen joined our class and they too were initiated. Thus ended our green year. Last September we entered as lordly Sophomores, feeling very proud of our superiority. Soon after school began we had the pleasure of getting revenge on the Frosh. We held an election of officers and class advisor, plans were then made for the Sophomore Hop, which was given the Friday before Christ- mas. Everyone had an enjoyable time. A four piece orchestra provided the music and the refreshments were served at 11 o’clock. The hall was decorated in Christmas colors. We were represented in athletics this year by the following: Roy Bankofier, Cecil Martin, Orvis Reil and Leslie Brophy in football and basketball; Glen Jones, Roy Bankofier, Cecil Martin and Leslie Brophy in track. The interclass track meet was captured by the Sophomores, by a large majority of the points, who were presented with the large cup don- ated by Mr. Beaty for this event. “Red” Martin received a cup, for high point man. During the second semester Violet Gayer from Roseville, Calif, joined our class. A play, “The Hand of the Law” is to be given by the Sophomore class. Since it is a good play, we hope it may prove a' success. Our Sophomore year is drawing to a close. We have done a great deal in school work as well as in atheltics; but we hope to accomplish a great deal more in our Junior year.
