Sophomore Class History In September, 1926, sixty-one Freshmen entered the Newcomerstown High School, determined to show the upper classmen their ability. In the early part of December a Freshmen-Sophomore party was held as was the custom, and it proved to be a great success. We also had various other entertainments throughout the year. Freshmen were barred from both Glee Clubs so we had our own music class instead. We contributed to the high school music by giving several members to the High School Orchestra. In addition to this many Freshmen entered athletics. More Freshmen of 1926-1927 made letters than had any previous Freshmen class. We, as Freshmen, were always ready to take part in social functions; always ready to “do our bit.” 1 he following year, fifty-one of the last year’s Freshmen entered the Sophomore class, well satisfied with the previous year’s work, and with the determination to continue thus. Our start in school was a little late, but the lost time was soon made up by hard work. 1 he first thing we did as Sophomores was to elect officers and choose our class colors and flower. Then the Sophomore party was planned. It was agreed by class ruling that a Sophomore party would be held instead of having a Freshmen-Sophomore party, as both classes were very large this year. Now as the Sophomores are not barred from the Glee Clubs, we are well represented in them. We are attaining our goal at which we are driving, for in Basketball and Football, the Sophomore class is highlv represented, and equally so in the High School Orchestra. On December 12. 1927, a Booster Club was organized by the Sophomore girls. This club was organized for the benefit of athletics and we hope it will prove a success. As we continue the Sophomore vear. we sincerelv hope that we may follow up our successes both on the field and in the class room with greater victories. .‘{(i —Jayne Lee.
