Yell Leaders This year was a very successful one for the Freshman Class. Class members took part in many of the school's various activities. Freshmen had parts in the Operetta, Jamboree, and entered actively into the regular school sports, Some of the sports in which the class made good showings were football, baseball, basketball, and track. Of the more illfated Freshmen projects was an attack on the L , This was defeated by a record rainfall, l-lowever, this does not alter the fact that it took initiative even to white-wash most of one hill side. The class also provided the traditional Return Party for the Sophomores, This occasion, however, was only celebrated after its members stood in turn expecting, yet unprepared, to heroically run the gauntlet at the Freshmen Reception. The Reception, among other things, proved that anyone can roll an onion with his rose with a little practice, The practice in this instance was skillfully administered by attendants of doubtful sympathy. Summing up the deficits and credits of the Freshmen Class of l938, the sum appears as substantial profit. Q7

The initiation, which was held in the gym, was a very dignified affair, in fact, the Freshmen were barefooted most of the evening. The youngsters were blindfolded and fed chocolate coated onions and a sulphuric mixture prepared by a local druggist. A blindfolded boxing match followed Then came the fun, two Freshmen were blindfolded and placed opposite each other and ordered to feed one another molasses. The result was a molasses fightl A few had the privilege of seeing the stars, with a little milk and raw egg thrown in. The shoes and stockings which were knotted together furnished ideal decorations for the gym walls. The Sophomores enjoyed the stunts, and the Freshmen couldn't help having a good time. This bang-up initiation was planned by the Sophomore boys with the help of Mr, Wood. The initiation was brought to a close with refreshments. The doors were then opened to the rest of the school for dancing, with Bob Knight play- ing the piano. The Freshmen returned the party with a dance and refreshments. Our class was represented in football, basketball, baseball, and track. Members of the Sophomore class participated in both Jamboree and Operetta. The only scheduled event which has not yet been held is the Freshmen-Sophomore Brawl, in which we are hoping for a victory. The annual Sophomore Dance was held lvlarch the fourth at the High School. The theme was Swing, Even the gym was given a touch of swing, with blue, green, orange, and red streamers. The music was furnished by Richard Hapgood, Jim lalapgood, Elnathan Kimbel, Bob Knight, and Mr, Blocher. The popular truckin fad was favored by many. Alumni, faculty, and l-ligh School were represented at the dance, which was a success.
