SOPHOMORE HISTORY On August 31, 1936, we, the class of 1940, were allowed the long awaited privilege of entering Humboldt County High School as students. We were formally inducted into the rigors and pleasures of high school on Field Day and had the honor of being the first Freshmen class to ever tie in the various events with the Sophomore class. Boys who were out for sports were Fausto Mentaberry, Fermin Lecumberry, and Vernon Smith. Many of the students joined the band. Field Day was the first important event this year, and we emerged victorious over the Freshmen. The Sophomore Hop was given in the form of a bam dance and was well attended. A number of boys went out for football and those receiving letters were Fausto Mentaberry, Fermin Lecumberry, and Vernon Smith. Again glee club and band found places for many of the Sophomores. Richard Ernst had a leading part in Kempy and showed exceptional dramatic ability. Jack Walling, Windle Robins, Fred Braito, Ethel Miller, Jack Diehl, Harold Harms, and Richard Ernst are showing great improvement in debating this year. One of the largest school organizations is the G.A.A. and Peggy Sowers, Margaret Haviland, Claire Kirk, Elsie Gam, Irene Capelli, Jean Clawson, Doll Corbett, and Donna Kelly represent the Sophomore class in this active group. Fausto Mentaberry, Fermin Lecumberry, and Vernon Smith were given positions on the A team in basketball. As the school year draws to a close we are eagerly looking forward to the honor of becoming upper classmen in the Fall. —Vernon Smith, '40 OFFICERS FALL SEMESTER Ruby Byrd Claire Kirk Donna Kelly Fermin Lecumberry Peggy Sowers Mrs. Willie Hudson - President Vice-President Secretary - Treasurer - Yell Leader - Adviser - SPRING SEMESTER - Jack Walling Fausto Mentaberry - Irene Capelli Fermin Lecumberry Allan Smith Fred Braito Mrs. Willie Hudson
