Sophomore History On September 4, 1934 thirty-six boys and girls toddled up the Humboldt County High School steps in quest of further knowledge. For days bewildered Frehsmen could be seen strolling about the halls, wondering what would happen next. Like all other freshmen that have entered Humboldt County High School, we dreaded going through the horrible process known as initiation. We managed to get through, however, and again to acquire our natural looks. After that it wasn't long before every Freshman was busily engaged in some activity. It would be difficult to record the great deeds and accomplishments of each member in our class, but it is sufficient to say that Our Class has acquitted itself with credit and honor. This, in a great measure due to the patient work of our teachers and class advisors. In every sport we, the class of '38, were represented by many of our competent students. Tom LcBroke and Frances Larragueta were awarded their letters for being outstanding in one of the sports. By the end of the Freshman year Thelma Randolph, Annie Mentaberry, Dorothy Stakel, Dolores Peterman, and Frances Larragueta found their names placed on the G. A. A. roll call. We had hardly become acquainted with our surroundings when we were unceremoniously pronounced Sophomores. After a good vacation we began our Sophomore year by defeating the Freshmen on Field Day. Again we upheld our honor by being outstanding in school activities. In October Fern Mattson and Ruth Damon participated in a debate with Lovelock. Since the judges pronounced the decision a tie the girls received their letters. Annie Mentaberry was among the sixteen girls chosen for chorus. We were able to stage the annual Soph Hop on November 16, 1935. In decorating we proved that the depression had taught us economy, for we used newspapers and old clothes instead of more expensive materials. Fern Mattson became an active member in G. A. A. by the end of the first semester, Winter sports found Charles Bell, Tom I.eBroke, William Hornbarger, Thomas Garteiz, and Philip Arant busily engaged on the Basketball court. Among the girls who received recognition in the various sports were Thelma Ran- dolph, Annie Mentaberry, Dolores Peterman, Fern Mattson, Ruth Damon, Dorothy Stakel, and Frances Larragueta. The Sophomore class was well represented in spring activities. In the Spring Play we were represented by Dolores Peterman. Many of the committees chosen for Play Day were composed of Sophomore girls. At the music festival held in Sparks our band students made a very good showing. Tom I.eBroke and Sam Greinstein went out for Track. We look forward eagerly to being upperclassmen, and with our Freshman and Sophomore years for foundation we have every chance of making our Junior year a success. FRANCES LARRAGUETA.

Junior History September 6, 1933 Humboldt County High School Thirty-seven green freshmen can be seen approaching, somewhat hesitnntly, the portals S. We soon made ourselves felt by being the only Freshman class ever to be victorious The class was represented in all sports, and joe de Arrieta was named on the All-Conference, and All-State teams. On September 4, 1934 we could hold our heads a little higher and be called Sophomores. As before, we were well represented in all sports, winning the Inter-class Basketball championship and the Inter-class Track championship. We started out this year, our first one as Upperclassmen with a bang as Joe de Arrieta, Martin Arbonies, Ralph Deems, William Hoxsey, Felix Scott, and John Crawford received football letters. The Basketball team again won the Inter-class games and had de Arrieta, Hoxsey, and Rex Dillon receiving letters in this sport. The class also showed its ability in Track as it was represented by de Arrieta Crawford, Dillon, Hoxsey, Deems, and Scott. The Tennis team had Horace Smith, George Smith, Normal Abel, and Ralston Hawkins out as members. Minnie Dangelmaier, Ethel Etchegoyhen, Horace Smith, Charles Duffy, and Ralston Hawkins belonged to the Debate Club. Smith and Duffy received letters for defeating the Hne Elko team. A modernistic arrangement was the theme for our Junior Prom, held on February 8, 1936. Three Juniors were adiudged winners in the Short Story Contest and were rewarded by having their stories put into the Winnada. They were Theodora Pultz, Marian Wootan, and Ralston Hawkins. A circus theme worked out in all the characteristic style of the Big Top was used in our Junior Stunt Show. Our class members who participated in it were: Marguerite Smith, Alice Bengochea, Roberta Robinson, Ethel Etchegoyhen, jane Johnstone, Minnie Dangelmaier, Theodora Pultz, Harriett Thomsen, Lavonne Davis, Horace Smith, George Smith, and Robert Gorham. The following students joined the band, the newest course in school. They were: Horace Smith, George Smith, Marguerite Smith, Robert Gorham, Theodora Pultz, and LaVonne Davis. Ethel Etchegoyhen won the Veterans of Foreign Wars Essay Contest for girls and was presented with a medal by James E. Van Zandt, National Commander of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Horace Smith was a member of the team which represented Winnemucca in the State Forensic Tournament. After some early difficulties, we gave the graduating Seniors their banquet and wished them all the luck in the world after they were once outside the portals of the dear old Humboldt County High School. All of this is water under the bridge but watch our smoke next year.

As usual, we had an initiation and were painted red, green, and yellow. There wasn't any day so exciting in the Freshman year as Field Day. We enjoyed the day even though we were defeated. The two students who have been outstanding during the Freshman year were: Patricia Sherman, who received the best grades and Jack Kearney, who had the honor of being placed upon the A squad in basketball. We are looking forward to next year when we shall have a chance to initiate the freshmen and also to defeat them on Field Day.
