Freshmen initiatiens took up our time the second week of school. On the evening of the last day of initiations we gave the Freshmen a party. On February llth, we gave a Masquerade Party for the High School. All in attendance came dressed in colorful costumes and a fine time was enjoyed by all. -We have had ,quite a successful year, so far as attendance goes. We started out with seven members, then lost four. Since then we have been gaining steadily in membership. Walter Shaw, Ted Espinoza, Henry Armijo, and Red MeAlister represented our class in football. In basketball, we were represented by Junior Puett, Red McAlister, Ted Espinoza, Walter Shaw, 'Henry Armijo, and Kenneth Atkinson. Outstand- ing Sophomore athletes were Walter Shaw, Ted Espinoza, and Red McAlister. In scholastic attainment, Gloria Velasquez and Red McAlis- ter were outstanding. Now, let us tell you something about our Sophomore Class officers. ' First, behold Alvin fRedJ MeAlister, President. Red came to McNary from Clibit, Oklahoma, where he was born in 1929. When he first came here he entered the 6th grade, and has been attending school here ever since. His ambition is to be a draftsman when he gets out of school. His hobby is women, with a capital W1 Red says the first thing that he notices about a woman is her beauty. BB careful Red, beauty is only skin deep. Also, he likes a woman with humor and a good dis- position. ' Next. get us meet our Vice-President, Ted Espinoza. Ted came from El Paso, Texas. He has lived in McNary for 15 years He likes all sports, but his favorite is basketball. He has hopes of some day being a great football and basketball coach. We wish you luck, Ted. New we come to the fairer sex. Our Secretary, Gloria Vel- asquez, came to McNary from Texas in 1936. Her favorite color is yellow. Her ambition in life is to finish High School, at- tend a business college, and take a four year regular college course. How did this ambitious girl get mixed up with our Sophomore Class? Last, but not least, is Walter Shaw, our Treasurer. He loves to talk and argue with anyone about anything. He says he studies, but there are a few people here who have their doubts. Walter is an unusual boy. He has two hobbies. He likes girls, and loves to tease the teachers. It is with pride that Walter says he is the teachers' favorite pest. When we asked him what his life ambition was, he simply re- - plied, NI am not a very ambitious person. I will be satis- fied if some day I am the commander of the United States Naval Air Forees.W He is a Boy Scout, but tells some whoppers Look, here comes our sponsor! Mrs. Margaret Moore. She taught her first year in McNary. Last year when we were Freshmen, she was our sponsor, and we feel honored that she is sponsor again this year. We have had some nice times to- gether. We will always remember her, and hope that she will do the same. Please forget some of our pranks!
