SOPHOMORES Sophomore Class Officers Lett to right: Joseph Lank, President. Arlene McGee, Treasurer; Hershel Deputy, Vice-President; Lillian Sorrells, Secretary. We have completed one lap of our high school education and we re finishing another now. As a group, we re the typical sophomore class. We ve given much of our time and energy in the field of becoming better students, athletes, musicians, and members of our newly formed Student Government. Our activities began early in the year and have continued admirably. The projects we have undertaken have resulted in giving us much pleasure and entertainment as well as supplementing funds to our class treasury. Perhaps the most important activity sponsored by the sophomores and enjoyed by members of the community was our Thanksgiving Dance. It was well attended and innumerable compliments were received on the decorations and entertainment. However, the project of which we are most proud was the winning of first prize in the Milford Victory and Hallowe en Parade of 1945. The subject of our float was the Flag Raising on Iwo Jima. Plans for a dance in May are also under way. As our advisers. Miss Mary Freas and Mr. Blair Rhodes, have done much in helping us over the rough spots during this school year. Looking back, we are very proud of our achievements in our sophomore year and expect to have a junior year fully as successful.

FRESHMEN Freshman Class Officers Left to right, standing: Virginia Lindale, Secretary; Richard Maxwell, Vice-President. Seated: Harry Mayhew, President; Irma McCullough, Treasurer. We, the freshmen, are often looked down upon by the upper classmen, but we, too, have our ideas of success and hope to fulfill them as the class of '46 has done. We are trying to show the other classes that freshmen can participate in the activities of the school. We have given our share of athletes, musicians, and school officers. The student council, an innovatiofi in this school this year, give% us a chance to practice democracy ourselves. Our class of '49 hopes to carry it to maturity and a lasting future. Our aim for the next three years is high, and we hope to better Milford High by our presence, following in the footsteps of the class of '46. Graduation, our ultimate goal, will be a long hard climb, but we shall reach it. To the class of '46 we freshmen would like to say, “Good luck, seniors, and some day we hope to fill your shoes efficiently.
