We gladly submitted ourselves to the joyous initiation rites con- ducted by the upperclassmen, and were delighted because ours was the first Freshman class to ever tie in Field Day events against the Sophomore class. Sophomore representatives in the G. A. A., one of the largest school organizations, were Peg- gy Sowers, Irene Capelli, Mar- garet Haviland, Claire Kirk, Elsie Garn, Jean Clawson, Doll Corbett and Donna Kelly. A number of the Sophomore girls were also active in various other school or ganizations. FALL SEMESTER OFFICERS President . . . Jack Walling Vice President . . . . Fausto Mentaberry Secretary . . .

SENIOR HISTORY We then gave the Junior Prom, an event which showed the originality and creative ability of this class. The Junior boys became “Interclass Basketball Champs,” while Herman Ast and Albert Williams made let- ters in this sport. The girls also stood out in every sport with Frances Hawkins, Sally Ghabagno, Dorothy Loest, and Patricia Sher- man making many varsities. 1938-1939 — Now we are Seniors, our last chance to show our ability. Dorothy Loest Violet English, Sally Chabagno, and Frances Hawkins at- tended Play Day in Lovelock. Our class members were very active in sports, with Albert Williams, Leroy Mugartegui, Sam Gilliland, and Herman Ast receiving letters in football. Mugartegui, Ast, and Gilliland were three of the half- dozen members of H. C. H. S.’s champion Six-man Football team. Frances Hawkins was elected cap- tain of the volleyball team, while Hawkins, Williams, and English re- ceived tennis letters. On “Cut Day” we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and were quite pleased with even this one short day of vacation. Our Senior Ball went over with a “bang.” We say farewell to all our teachers and friends and sincerely hope that they are as sorry to see us leave as we are to depart.
