THE SOPHOMORE CLASS l've noticed, mused the wise old studyhall clock, that we have a very active Sophomore class this year. Yes, indeed, agreed the trophy cup. I watched them last year and I re- member that their officers for the two semesters were: Myrtle Hise and James Pitney, presidentg Ted Tatro and Virginia Norton, vice-president, Gladys Green-4 wood and Donald Petersen, secretaryg Betty Domaschofsiiy and LaVerne Tracer, treasurer. Delbert Dickey was student council member and Miss Hays was their advisor. They started school with a 'bang' this ye ir, continued the clock. They in- itiated the Freshmen 'properly' and from what I hear, the Return Reception was thoroughly enjoyed. Some nice interclass, ah--er--friendships were started. The trophy cup continued, Marion Carcthers, leading lady of 'Easy Money,' as well as Esther Madsen and Robert Hicks won praise for their fine performance. Delbert Dickey, general business manager of student activities, has contributed to the success of all activites. The officers for this yea1',are: Darwin Packard, presi- dent: Robert Hicks, vice-presidentg James Pitney, secretaryg LaVerne Tracer, treasurer. Merle Buxton meets with the student council and acts as manager of Boys' baseball. Ruth Pryor reports class news and Miss Markusen is the class advisor. And don't forget,' contributed the listening football trophy, 'Colonel' Showalter, Delbert Dickey, Darwin Packard and Robert Hicks, football heroes with the courage to 'do and die' for the dear old Alma Mater. The 'spirit cf romance' is not--ah, hem--lacking either. Just keep your eyes open, now that spring is here, advised the wise old clock with a grin. Baseball season is here again, added the trophy. I've heard much about Ted Tatros' home runs, Merle 'Toar' Allen's miraculous catches and the way 'Bunny' Barker 'digs them out of the dirt at first'. Esther Madsen, Verneta Withrow, Marva Nelson, Pearl Wright and those two 'Babe Ruthsf LaVerne Tracer and Alice Bailey, help the Tiger Lilies win games. Yes, indeed, agreed the wise trio, The Sophomore Class has had a very profitable and enjoyable year! i171

THE JUNIOR CLASS It came to pass in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty- three that forty-one confused but ambitious seekers of knowledge did gather themselves together at the gates of J. C. H. S. to form the class of '37. For their leader they chose Helen Mitchell. Alfred Larsen was the able assistant and Ralph Lingo, the keeper of the records. So it was done. September '34, Again the chief ruler called the flock together and they were no longer called Fresh, but were known as Sophomores. Their leader was Kent Peter- sen and his assistant, Edward Uttinger. Eileen Washburne acted as historian. After two years had elapsed and the class of '35 fbecause of diligent work and studyl had increased in favor with their telchers and fellow students, it came about that a new dignity settled upon them. Behold, there went forth an eddict from those in authority that they were to be c1l'ed Juniors. lt was decreed that Alfred Larsen should be tribal chief, that Tommy Harper should be his helper, that Irene Rasmussen should be scribe and Leah Puckett, keeper of the coffers. Now from the first there were many among the flock who showed marked ability, and because of this the fame and honor of Juniors did continue to grow. Irene Rasmussen, as a Freshman had won first place in the oratorical contest: Elmer Mallory brought trem great glory in baseball, Edward Uttinger gained praise for his fotball ability, Mildred Ross won admiration with her clever pen and Alfred Larsen proved himself a most satisfactory business manager for the Junco-Ed. There were many names on the honor roll to win renown for the class. In the student body play, five of their number proved their skill as entertainers and six were chosen to appear in the operetta. Great acclaim came to them be- cause of the sweet voices of the Lauridsen twins. Surley the Juniors could well be called a remarkable group, and it is foretold that they will do great honor to their school when, next year, as Seniors they shall sity in the seats of the mighty.

So seemed to sing the upperclass- men gleefully. KNOW we know how the poor mouse felt when caught by thatder- lion.l Almost forgotten were the glories, the laurels, the power and the high and mighty feeling we had attained at the close of our eight years of grade school. There were rumors fcchees, toob of paddles, of stunts to be performed, of queer menus to be consumed, of a party to be given in our honor. We were soon to enjoy this, and after having dutifully complied with all requests we are reward- ed with a watermelon feast.
