LA PURISIMA boys of our class made the required number of credits almost every period. These were Velma Smith, Elizabeth Watson, Fenton Holloway, and Allen Owen. This was not the only organization in which the Sophomores predomi- nated, for two thirds of the officers of the Girl's League, second semester, were from our class. Those holding office in the two semesters were Eliza LaFourcade, Velma Smith, Elizabeth Watson, Francine Cazenave, Catherine Harris, and Irene Howerton. Some of our girls also held A. S. B. offices. Velma Smith was secretary the first semester, and Genetta Cheatham has been our peppy yell leader the whole year. We also entertained the A. S. B. with a clever Spanish play called Una Tragedis de Amor. Some of the character parts were taken by Eliza LaFour- cade, Kenneth Heiges, Allen Owen, and Francine Cazenave. Our class has also taken an active part in school athletics, and three of our boys, Edgar Horn, Kenneth Heiges, and Howard Winn, are lettermen. Of the girls, Ida Guerra and Janie Grossi received their second letter, and Genetta Cheatham and Irene Howerton their first. Then last and most im- portant, our girls won the school championship in basketball. Friday, May 11, was the date set for our class dance. It was well attended and everyone enjoyed it. It was a very happy ending for our Sophomore year. ' Altogether, I am sure we all think this has been a most satisfactory year, and we have reason to be proud of our class. 7 ' ' '- F Isl' 2 C l28l

We first found out how capable she was when we were preparing for the Freshmen Reception. ' As Freshmen we had firmly resolved that when it came our turn we would, as lordly Sophomores, really initiate the Freshmen. We did not carry out all our dire threats, but we did have a rousing good time with them. The Freshmen returned the compliment and gave us a very jolly party. Now we could settle down and show the High School of what mettle the Sophomores were made. It was soo11 evident that the majority of the members of the Scholarship Society were Sophomores.

We're in High School now, but feeling rather small and fully prepared for a ducking. The Freshman reception was a source of mystery-something that we did not know whether to welcome or dread. Our anxiety was relieved about the middle of the school term by invitations to the party. Francis Beattie, the Sophomore president, gave us an address of weleome, which was answered by the Freshman president, Edward Kalin. The Freshman class can boast of some fine athletes in all the sports. Letters were given to several in our class: to Kalin and Smiley for football, to Horn and Smiley for basketball, and to Kalin for baseball. We have some excellent material for next year also. The Freshman performance for the Student Body showed that we had good talent in other lines than athletics. We gave a short farce called Why Photographers Go Mad. The whole cast of our play did well, and Carter Fry showed partlcular talent as the photographer. Thanks to Miss Holmes' untiring effort, our entertainment ranked high among those of the past year. l29'l
