OPHO ORE CLASS OFFICERS First Row, L. to R.--Herman Mil- lage, Treasurer, Robert Espe President, Jane Baker, Secretaryg Jean Brown, Vice-President. Second Row-Alice Winfield, Stu- dent Council Representativeg Mr. Phil Hubbard, Miss Crosier, Ad- visers: Mae Donnelly, Student Council Representative. 9 CCORDING to Webster, the word sophomore means 'fsimpletonf' However, early in the year, the Sophomore Class proved itself a contradiction to this and showed its wisdom in choos- ing its class officers and representatives. The following boys and girls were elected: Robert Espe, President, Jean Brown, Vice-President, Jane Baker, Secretary, Herman Millage, Treas- urer, Alice Winfield and May Donnelly, Student Council Representatives, Coach Phil Hub- bard and lNIiss Crosier, Advisers. Another proof of the unusual wisdom of the Sophomore Class is the fact, that, on the high honor roll, more than a third of the places have been held by sophomores and a large percentage of this class have consistently had averages of 85 and above. Such students as Wilma Babcock, Jack Brink, May Donnelly, Philip Nichols, Jean O'Connor, Howard Palmer, Elizabeth Schmeller, and Jeanne Yancey are noted for outstanding scholastic ability. Many sophomores, both girls and boys, have been active in sports. Of the girls, Virginia Baier led the field in hockey and Loretta Jerome starred in basketball. Several of the boys be- long to the Tuna Fish League and a large number of the boys on the J. V. team are sophomores. The Sophomore Class also showed itself musically gifted. The class is well-represented in orchestra, band, and choir, and a sophomore, Ellen Mason, is the accompanist for choir. The new second choir is mostly made up of sophomores. Besides these, the sophomores have participated in many other school activities. Some members such as Dorothy Reig and Pearl Hensen are talented artists. Others belong to the Journalism Club. 'The sophomore reporters, Philip Nichols and James Murray, have been espe- cially capable in handling the class news this year. One sophomore home room, Room 15, conducted a Good Citizenship campaign during the year to see who could make the greatest improvement toward better citizenship in school. The results of the drive were almost perfect citizenship in that home At the beginning of the school year, the size of the class members, some from Apalachin, some from Tioga Center, and I'O0I'I1. was decidedly swelled by new a number from various other near-by districts. These new members have contributed much to the class in both scholastic and athletic ability. Looking back on our sophomore year, it seems to us that, although we have had no out- standing events, such as a Junior Prom, or a Senior Play, or even a Freshman Initiation, we have enjoyed one of the happiest and most successful years of our school life. We have climbed one rung higher on the Victory ladder toward graduation. 26
