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

FRESHMEN HISTORY On August 30, 1937, a large class of fifty-four members were enrolled as Freshmen in the Humboldt County High School. As usual, for the following few weeks scared Freshmen could be seen and heard inquiring as to what wgs to befall them on Field Day. When the dreadful day arrived, members of the Freshmen class were so painted with lipstick that they looked more like a tribe of Indians on the warpath than high school students. However, they went bravely forward to compete against the Sophomores, but the Sophomores were victorious. The Freshmen of this year showed a great deal of school spirit by participating in all school activities. In sports they were well represented by a large number of students. Harvey Arbonies was chosen for the basketball varsity. Beth Morrall, Alliene Robinson, and Antonio Bargas were chosen for the volleyball team. Bob Jones, Harvey Arbonies, and Beth Morrall were admitted into the Pep Club. The Freshmen were also well represented in the Debate Club, Junior Stunt Show, band, and glee club. At the close of their first year in high school, the Freshmen are looking forward to their Sophomore year and hope further to distinguish themselves. —Beth Morrall, '41 OFFICERS FALL SEMESTER Grace Etchart - Lyle Ellison Katherine O'Leary - Theo Woodward Beth Morrall Mr. Albert Ltrwry President Vice-President Secretary - Treasurer - Yell Leader Adviser SPRING SEMESTER Harvey Arbonies Bill Arant - Beverly Utah - Lucille Campbell Don Brume t Henry Harrer Mr. Albert Lowry n
