He chose Idella Cook as queen. There was much discussion about the theme song and the orchestra. We finally decided to hire an orchestra from Green Bay, Claude LaDuc's; then, as a theme song, we chose, It Might As Well Be Spring.'' Fireproof decorations in paper were hard to find because they have not yet been put back on the market, so we are using balloons for the ceiling. Around the side walls, there will be grass and spring flowers. The prom will be held on May 10. This is later than in other years, but we hope it will be as much of a success as previous ones and that the seniors will enjoy it, our farewell dance for them.

This experience was a little different than last year, as now we were ''upperclassmen.' Since that time, we have lost three members of our class, T. Durant, D. Mittelstaedt, and E. Harmsen. Half of our high school course is behind us, and although the best years are yet to come, we are not ashamed of our record to date. Our class is well represented in all activities and sports. Student council representatives are R. Case and C. Ogle. In the field of forensics, at least three-fourths of the class is participating, and, as last year, our one and only representative for football and basketball was E. Harmsen. Other activities in which the sophomores take part are: G. A. A., Libraray Club, Boys' Club, Band, and Chorus. We, the sophomore class, have enjoyed our entire second year at O. H. S. and look forward to next year when we will enter as juniors. ★ COLORS: Wine and White Flowers: White rose and Sweetpeas. Motto: Onward, forever.
