-------------------------------------------------T H E A U R 0 R A-------------------------------------- Sophomore Class History V is 1 l The Sophomore 'Class began its history, H October 6, 1924, when it was organized into the ,l class of 27. Officers were elected. At a later 'l meeting class colors and a motto were selected. fy But this large group of green freshmen was not f' officially a part of N. H. S. until it was duly 1' christened by the Seniors at a reception given by ll them on November 1. After becoming a part of lg N. H. S., we settled down and worked and work- H ed and now we are Sophomores, those follyirre- in pressible Sophomores. We began our new life by 5 electing officers. L, This has certainly been a busy year for us. ,, We enjoyed a sleigh-ride party chaperoned by in Mr. Klose, this winter, and had planned a skat- L ing party which proved unsuccessful due to the 1 lack of ice. You will agree that this was a legiti- l mate excuse. We have been very active along the athletic U l l Lilijlillillill!101-lllll1ll1lllilllllillillilhlhllilli li!!!-Cl!!-III Pug e-12 '27 lines. The Class basketball teams have shown the upper classes that there is some good mater- ial for the Varsity in the future. The boys' team had for its captain Hampton Byram, and the girls' chose for their captain, Elsa Scharff. We were represented on the gridiron by Kasisky at full-back and Byram at tackle. Our class displayed endless spirit in sending tokens of remembrance at Christmas time to two of our classmates who were convalescing in the hospital. Much to our sorrow one of our classmates died during this year. The class sent a floral tribute and it was officially represented at the funeral services. OFFICERS.
