SOPHOMORE CLASS President Vice-Pres. See.-Trees. Sgt.-ot-Arms Bill Roush John Wise Fronk Hoffmon Jock Osborne SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY As we look back over our frerhman year and vividly recall all of our many experiences, we remember best of all that first day at school and how nervous and excited we all were. We were called into the auditorium by Mr. Linn and told about the subiects we were to take and how to conduct ourselves in classes and the building. We also remember, a little vaguely perhaps, of somethin ? said in regard to throwing chalk, erasers, or paper airplanes. Then much to our sorrow came initiation, a little late, for we had been told that we were too old to have such things. The ones that survived it were pretty lucky, for most of us had acute indi- gestion after eating raw oysters and anything else the sophomores gave us. Soon after initiation came the sophomore-freshman tug-of-war, an annual attraction here at M. P. H. S. Luckily most of us knew how to swim, for they practically drowned all of us including anyone who happened to be with them. •George Nichols led us as our rresident with Harry Summers, vice-president; Norman Jarvis, repiesentative; and Jimmy Cooper, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Kirsh was our class advisor, and the one who gets the credit for bringing us through a very trying year. And don't forget our class picnic with some of the boys being brave enough to go in swimming. And all the potato salad, (incidentally some got spilled in the bus), cold weiners with too much mustard, and if you were lucky you only got a mouth of sand with it. With a few other minor incidents we brought our first year at Myrtle Point High School to a fine ending. A year that we can look back upon with many happy memories. To start this eventful year the class of “ 48, began with the freshman initiation and the sophomore-freshman tug-o’-war. They were held the same day so it was pretty hard on the freshies, they got a good soaking but all were good sports. For the freshman return party we danced in the gym. Cookies and punch were served for refreshments. The cookies were “delicious, but say, freshies, what ever did you put in that punch? We all had a good time, anyway. Our class put on an assembly March 28. We had popular songs by Connie Sheppard, Martina Kin-cheloe, and Coach Ray Neugart. A skit entitled “The Rummage Sale, was given with the cast of Norman Jarvis, Ruth Summerlin, and Nancy Haga. Mr. MacNab played two piano solos and the school orchestra also played. Both the football and basketball letters were given out during the assembly by Coach Neugert. Our class was represented in the Letterman’s Club by : George Nichols, who received letters in track last year, and in football and basketball this year. Norman Jarvis got his letter in track last year, and Jack Osbo:ne and John Wise got their letters as track managers also last year. Betty Smith, Twyla Royer, Ann Pointer, Shirly Train, Irene Banick, and Geraldine Ginn represented our class in G. A. A. The sophomore class brought forth a very fine record of Torch Honor members. We were three members ahead of the juniors and lagged only two behind the seniors. They were Corlyss Lucas, Nancy Haga, Louise Epperson, Martina Kincheloe, Shirly Train, Frank Hoffman, Harry Summers, and Edwin Ellis. The Torch Honor members had a lot of fun initiating us but rewarded us with a sumptuous banquet. WTe look forward to an eventful junior year, but will always hold dear those memories of the days when we were sophomores.
