Sophomore History Seated Mary Jane Burns, Kathleen Yoder, Cleese Gosnell, Kenneth Hershberger, Dorothy Jean Yoder, Geneva Spicher. Standing-Beulah Dickel, Mary Maple, Robert Slaubaugh, Dale Hochstetler, Wayne Lantz, Irene Brenneman. On August 26, 1940, thirteen freshmen decided to take 2. four year automobile tour across the country of education. Kenneth was placed at the steering wheel, Kathleen at the gear shift, and Irene at the throttle. During the year we stopped to let several members take part in the plays, Sonny Jane and Don't Darken My Door. Several also stopped over to participate in declamatory. In the fall of 1941 twelve of us decided to continue our tour. We placed Robert at the wheel, Wayne at the gear shift, and Dale at the throttle. We made frequent stops to allow members to take parts in plays and declamatory. The boys helped present the all-boy play, Andy Has the Answer, several helped give In May With June, Eh, and '4Winter Sunset. A few of us were even al- lowed in the senior play, Where Theres A Will. We, as a class have always been represented in athletics of the school. Kenneth, Dale, Wayne and Cleese won letters in bas- ketball during the past year. Every day we have learned new things on our trip across the country of education and we hope we shall continue to enjoy the remainder of the voyage as much as we have thus far. -D. E. H.
