Sophomore Class History I By MARIE THOMAS, '26 HE Sophomore Class of 1924 was initiated into the mlysteries of high school life at Junior High in the fall of 1922. What we have lacked in numbers, we have made up for in enthusiasm, for ours was the de- termination to make the very 'best of our high school days. Even as Fresh- men, 'we were well represented in school activities, having won second place in the Declamatory Contest and twice winning a prize of four dollars for pre- senting the best yells at the Tabernacle. Neither has our social life been entirely neglected. Our Hrst efforts resulted in a Valentine party and a little later, after an epidemic of spring fever, we found ourselves planning a picnic to be held at Oakland Mills. Now, in the school year of 1923-24, we have taken on a new dignity, since we play the role of Sophomores. We had to endure the usual embar- assments attendant upon the entrance to Senior High, but in a short time the class-rooms kept their right locations, instead of jumping from one side of the building to the other, and we felt' quite at ease amidg our new sur- roundings. Our present activities include representation in the high school band, orchestra, declamatory work, glee clubs, and the operetta, Patricia . Our girls' baskeball team rwon glory by defeating the Juniors, and although the Seniors captured the honors, we feel justly proud of such a splendid team. A number of our boys have shown their ability in athletics, five have won their numerals during the football season, and others made a name for them- selves and for the class in basketball. This ends the history of our Freshman and Sophomore years and We hope that all expectations wil be fulfilled for making this, our class, the best to graduate from M. P. H.
