SJ, sur- rounded bythe wisdom of the ages Qin the Libraryj, thirteen neglected little orphans fprac- tically orphans, since their honored mother, Miss Graham, was almost always busy doing thingsh looking up reference books for other peoples children, for instancej have their headquarters where nothing ever happens-much. Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to present Sophomore Home Room 208. ln the beginning, though the magazine sales came on very suddenly, the little orphans managed to sell nearly their whole quota of subscriptions frah rahj. This home room has been on the beam in war projects, too, Why, they even won third place in the paper drive, with 871 pounds of scrap paper collected within a week! And, once they caught the idea, they were almost always 100 per cent participants in the purchase of War Bonds and Stamps. Although the masculine element of this Home Room was, of course, not much interested in social events, the boys were finally persuaded to attend a movie party en masse. A spring picnic, boosted along by a beautiful day and some interesting chow, proved enjoyable to those who attended. Plans were afoot for a knitting party or a quilting bee exclusively for the boys, because, as their Home Room teacher says, Knitting and sewing are the only things you can do well while you talk, so you chatterboxes ought to produce some champion knitters and quiltersf' However, this plan was never realized. Finally, about the middle of the second semester, Chairman Lloyd Helper and Secretary joy Joslyn were elected, and, now that they have completed their Home Room business for the year, shall we leave them in peace? -JOY JOSLYN page ibirty

sophomores The dignified QP, officers of 117 were elect- ed by the home room at the first of the year. Wayne Pillen was elected presidentg Bob Ride- out, vice president, Max Bader, secretary, and George Eggers collected our pennies whenever it was necessary fand when he could get thenmj We were very proud to think that Marion Perkins, our home room beauty, was selected by the students of our class to represent the sopho- mores in competition for queen of the Harvest Ball. Mr. Gossett collected plenty of corn UQ. One night after eating that delicious popcorn, we got our heads together and figured out what we were to have for our homecoming float. It turned out that we didn't get them together well enough, for it was just another float as far as the judges were concerned. It was a broken down rocket on blue and white crepe paper, the colors of Princeton. This was placed on a wagon pulled by two of our husky Q?j boys. Carroll Kruger straddled the rocket to show the power of Prince- ton's team. We didn't get a prize, though we really 117 should have-not that we're prejudiced! The sophomore class all met in the cafeteria for a Christmas party. For entertainment there was dancing and a grab bag. 117 was in charge of the grab bag. After many pep talks-fand we do mean manyj we brought in 585 pounds of paper for the Home Ec. paper drive. jean Booth was high with 268 pounds, and jim Fleming ran a close- second. War stamps were purchased by everyone at one time or another, but it seemed almost im- possible for us to get together all at the same time and buy stamps to make the home room 100 per cent. However, we were successful and became 100 per cent at last! To top our glory no one was seated in the workshop-which punishment Mr. Gossett threat- ened if we didn't keep quiet, And in spite of pre- vious mishaps, we think it's a pretty swell home room. - -HIELIEN Gn.'i'Niaa Back Row-Carroll Carlon, Wayne Pillen, Max Bader, Robert Rideout, james Fleming.

Well it is! But Miss Woller, our homeroom teacher, manages us green freshman only too . . . o . . . oo well. When school first began, we chose our class officers-Betty Lea Mossman for president and Max Paul, runner-up, naturally became vice presi- dent. For our secretary we chose Jack DeBord, and being the miser he is, he managed to become treasurer, too. During the paper drive we decided to become patriotic, and came out on top with about a ton and a half of paper to our credit. A new student, Mary Blunck, brought 857 pounds of it. Our re- ward was a box of candy. fNotice the past tensej Fay Tremper, Betty Lea Mossman, Jo Ann Gil- bert, jean Allen, jim Kampf, Roy McCune, Ron- ald Scholes, and jack DeBord helped bundle and weigh the paper. QNO wonder we won! ! I lj They tell us we're the most energetic of all the Freshman. After all we do climb three flights of stairs to get to our home room. In fact, we're so energetic that if we're ever assigned to the third floor again, we're going to install an ele- vator. Ted Sterrett has volunteered to supervise the job.
