it Wi 1 O,3ll0Wl0l 6 GSS Time certainly does fly. Last year these stu- dents saw their first high school life on September sixth, as they diligently went to work on their various studies and activities. Now they are Soph- omores, upperclassmen, as they like to be called, gaining more dignity and pride as they go for- ward each year. For the first year they had as their able lead- ers: Dave Norton, president, Irene Yusko, vice president, Betty I-lohmann, secretary, and Charles lVfarbu:'gei, treasurer. With their guidance, these pupils held skating parties and other activities showing their interest in their new school life. They also had members of the class who partici- pated in other activities such as basketball and football-Rich Kitzer and Bob Kennihan. They ended a very successful year as Freshmen, but decided that they would need about a three- month vacation before taking their place as Soph- omores, which they got. Again in September they put aside thoughts of their joyous vacations, and turned all thoughts to school again. It was hard to get adjusted after vacation, but they decided that if they were to be future leaders of our country, they would really have to buckle down and get to work. At their first meeting this year they elected new officers to help them carry on the new business of Q26 the year. Dave Norton must have proved his great ability last year, because this year he was chosen as president of his class. Bob Kennihan was chos- en vice president, Betty Campbell, secretary, and Florence Cooper, treasurer. The members of the class grew to be better liked by the rest of the students, as they contributed individually and col- lectively toward the future. Our basketball team still held as two of its good players, Rich Kitzer and Bob Kennihan, who will probably prove to be an even greater asset to the team in their remaining two years. In order to make money, they have had skating parties despite rationing, and usually had pretty good turnouts. Next year they will be taking their places as Juniors of Mars High. What a day when they'll be Juniors and only have one more year to go. It seems as though all classes have been work- ing under a disadvantage because of such trying times, but we are sure the Sophomores as well as the rest of the students will prove equal to the jobs before them which must be done thoroughly and wholeheartedly. Boys and girls of understand- ing and learning will be needed to take the ranks of those who precede them, so all of Mars High joins in wishing the Sophomores of 1943 the best of luck and a most brilliant future.

CW JVQS Wlfllfl GSS Hereis to the Freshmen, Whose future untold Will always hold high The Blue and Gold! After eight long years of struggling we reached the gates of Mars High School. To some of us high school meant fun, to some it meant sadness, but to most of us it meant knowledge and happi- ness. To the amusement of the school, we were in- itiated one fine October afternoon. The boys were attired in knee trousers, shirts on backwards, hair ribbons, and makeup. The girls were in short dresses, curlers in their hair, and no makeup. Naturally, the girls didnat look so well without makeup, but they went only one day like this. I-lowever, we proved we were not cowards at heart. After a few weeks of making friends, we elected the following officers: Q President .. .... Sally Cuddyre Vice President ,, , Ralph Jones Secretary .Bill Ebel Treasurer , . Jean Sirney We are sure the upperclassmen did not find us hard to like for we were honest and industrious in all our work. As our last few weeks as Freshmen draw to a close, we are sorry but happy. We are consoled by the thought that others will now look up to us, as we look up to the higher classes. As Uljresh- ies,', we say goodbye. -2g..
