When we en- tered the high school we thought it wvas a place for good times, which are mo-st assuredly prevalent, but study -and hard work also abide there. J 1 A meeting wias held for the purpose of electing officers, a sponsor, se-1 lecting a olass flower, color and motto. All these matters were settled and the new officers took their places and reigned over the Freshman Class throughout the year. A few weeks after we had gotten used to classes and the teachers, we began getting worried because the upper classmen began giving orders, sly glances and talking in low tones. Of course, the Fresh.ies were suspi- cious. However, their suspicions were soon released when it was announced that we were invited to a.ttend a reception to be given in our honor. This affair is known as Hiinivtlina-ti-oin. The upper classmen took us through the initiation ceremony, making the entire class feel miserable and foolish. Of course after this was over we were not looked down upon or criti- cized so much, so we made ourselves at home and had our fun along with the rest of the students. Later in the year after the examinations were over, we decided to give a reception fnot initationl in honor of our sponsor, Mr. Neff and his wife. After much hard work this came c-ff in fine style, it taking plla-ce in Laugh- lin's hall, which was trimmed in pink and green, the class colors. After the first year in high school we were quite used to the ways of our teachers and the students, so we began our Sophomore year. The year was started with the determination of preparing ourselves for the responsi- bilities of later years. A meeting was held for the purpose of electing officers. After this was settled the new officers took their share of the responsilbilities of mzan- aging an almost uncontro-l'la.ble group like the Sophomore Class. Although somemembers of the class are not brilliant, they show re- markable ability along athletic lines. Our class takes part in the boys and girls basket ball teams and both literary societies. The Sophomore Class now stands next to the dignified Seniors, standing second in the high school with an average of 76 13-25. The Sophomore year, the eventful and successful o-ne, must now come to wan end with the entire student body looking forward to our J unior year with great hopes and expectations.
