66mm 0; '4? Last September we took up the position of the sophomore class at Plainvillet This station is somewhere between the work of being iuniors and the newness of being freshmen. Even though nothing special is associated with the sophomore class, we found plenty to do and had fun doing it. To start everything off properly, we had elections. Jimmy Anthony, Bob Larson, Barbara Dieckbrader, and Yate Deer came up with the titles of President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer respectively. Our sponsors were Mr. Miller and Mr. Saiter. Toward the middle of the year we gave the Sophomore Sweater Swing. At this dance something new was added, a stag doll. At the Carnival we sponsored the Game Room in 302. We had dart and ring throwing contests, and those who were skilled or lucky won a free malt at Frisches. The sophomore class was represented by Charlie Miller in the Variety Show. He sang two popular songs, and was a hit as usual. Sophomore girls were very active in Girl Reserves and G. A. A., and many sophomore boys joined the Hi-Y. Many of the boys in our class were active in sports. Among those who kicked and carried the pigskin were Jerry Roberts, Ed Crain, Roy Joyer, Jerry Buckmaster, Yate Deer, Netson Beckler, David Cotes, and Dean Kaiser. The reserve basketball team had c: mighty year, losing only three out of eighteen games. Sophomores on the team were Jim Anthony, Mike Coleman, Nelson Beckler, Harold Kruse, lBen Cohee, Gene Lentz, Jerry Baker, Maynard Amburgey, Cliff Loy, Gordon DeWeese, and Ed Cruin. On that super state championship baseball team the sophomores were Gene Lentz, Gordon DeWeese, and Nelson Beckler. 51

66mm or; '4? We, the Forty-Niners, first post-wur freshman class crt Pluinville High, are trying earnestly to contribute our bit toward building for c: stable future. We are aware of our share of the responsibility of making our mental and moral progress measure up to the heights of energy of our Atomic Age. Two years ago we arrived on the local scene full of the vim and vigor that characterizes us! Based in our home rooms, 202 and 204, supervised by Mrs. Fish and Mrs. Boyle respectively, we soon test our illusions that secondary school would prove a Hbreeze. Several of us ctimbed to honor roll elevation; many of us made our presence felt in Junior High intrumurals, band, and basketball. We gave a notable Hollowe'en Party, and had the fortune-teihng concession at the Carnival. Our officers were Bill Lindquist, President,- Marietta Librundi, Vice President; Marty Jones, Secretory; Jim Baker, Treasurer. As eighth graders, we had a real feeling of belonging. Mrs. Barnes and Mrs. Kretder were our able advisers. We distinguished ourselves by winning the Carnival prize for the top money-making concession, a bake sale. We sighed and sweated over the state tests, but they were not so bad after all, and most of us triumphed over them. We were led that year by Jack Ahr, President,- Carolyn Toid, Vice Presi- dent,- Tunya Hudgel, Secretary,- Everett Spelmon, Treasurer. Now, at last, we are fuII-fledged high-scholars. In tribute to 'our dignity, we were housed upstairs with Mrs. Boyle and Mrs. Hopping. Wrestling with the mysteries of Latin, algebra, biology, the profundities of Shakespeare and the darkness of Medieval Ages, we increased our numbers on the honor roll and our prominence in sports and activities. Again, under our inspired chairman, Tom Swisher, we won the Carnival award. Our prowess in twice bringing home the bacon makes us quite a school asset, we think! Our successful Freshman Fling was a never-to-be-forgotten event of the spring. Our officers were Jack Heckel, President; Donna Lou Meyers, Vice President; Barbara Poysell, Secretary,- Dick Graeter, Treasurer. Watch for us when we step into the wide, wide tsophomoret world! 53
