History of the Sophomore Class In September 1925, a group of ninety-three boys and girls became freshmen. Previous to this they had been masters over the seventh graders, now they were awed into respectful silence by the sight of those worthy persons, the Seniors. The Seniors gave us a hearty welcome into High School. We organized ourselves into a class at our first class meeting, by electing Elmore Carney, President, Stuart Rambo, Vice-President, and Norma Brown, Sec- retary-Treasurer. Our class colors were blue and maize. We were represented in all athleticsg the freshmen girls won second place in interclass basketball. We closed our freshman year with a class party where everyone had heaps of fun. When we returned' in the fall we were old-timers. We elected Elmore Car- ney, Presidentg and Margaret Dunning, Secretary-Treasurer. We gave a dance at the High School in january and we were the only class to come out even financially. We are proud to have in athletics, Stuart Rambo, Charles Foster, Erwin Foster, Elmore Carney, Ted johnson, Russell Sockow, Dale Rittenhouse, Cecil Packard, Charles Beegle. Elizabeth Spicer, Ruth Root, and Laurence Livingston were on the Declamation Team. Elizabeth Spicer won first place. So far we have success- fully lived up to our motto, Always go forward. -Ruth Louise Hamilton. 25
