was made to convert one hundred per cent to war activities. Therefore, the list of non-war activities was very small. Some of these activities were as follows: il H 1 5 There were not many sophomore non-war activities this year because every effort There were a number of sophomores who served on the Student Police. They helped to improve and control the passing of classes through the school halls. Various sophomores served as chairmen at assemblies. The boys participated in many sports, including football, basketball, track, wrestling, and baseball. The girls participated in hockey, archery, basketball, volleyball, ping pong, bowling and softball. There were five sophomores who were members of Malverne's debate squad. They were Leo Grant, Philip Bahn, Donald Brandis, Bernard Price and Louise Haight. The Speakers Bureau of the Red Cross consisted entirely of sophomores. They were Paul Cornell, Leo Grant, and Philip Bahn. This group informed the students in assembly about the Red Cross' various activities during the school year. Sophomore girls comprised part of the cheer-leaders' squad. They helped to cheer the teams on to victory. The Class of '45 helped Malverne have a high school spirit this year by attending games and dances in substantial numbers. The tenth graders participated in many war activities. They bought war stamps each week, with Room 305 buying the highest amount of stamps. In March there was a drive to raise money, via the war stamps and bond sales, for the purchase of jeeps. The jeeps cost seven hundred fifty dollars. On the jeeps Malverne High School was inscribed. The Sophomore Class alone brought in five thousand dollars. Almost all the sophomore homerooms were enrolled one hundred per cent in the Red Cross. Contributions were adequate. Students collected Reader's Digests for the Marines, supplied gifts for veterans, and participated in salvage campaigns. These activities were all under the supervision of the Red Cross. The boys took pre-induction courses after school. Many boys in the Class of '45 served as messengers during air raid alerts. In Social Studies classes sophomores showed special skill and talent in writing excellent projects and combining almost pro- fessional skill in illustrating the projects. Nicholas Murgola drew a sketch of a cathedral that was so accurate that it resembled a photo- graph. There was much deserved praise and recognition of his work. The executive branch of the sophomore class was composed of Lothar Rissland, president, Bernice Parman, vice-president, Jean Cox, secre- tary, and George McCoy, treasurer. Miss Lyster was the sponsor of the sophomore class. Presidvnf ,.,.. . ,. ....,,., Lothar Rixslaml Vive Prrsirlcnl ,....., .........
