------ THE CHAOS JUNIOR C LASS HISTORY Mary L. Warner President Leon Kresler Vice-President Claudia Kruzan — Secretary Eleanor Long Treasurer Miss Kresler and Mr. Shrode Sponsors The old ship F. S. J. (Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors) started out with ninety-three Freshmen on board and the flag of ’33 hoisted at full mast. The first part of the journey was made under the guidance of Cap- tain Elsie Washburn. The number on board decreased as the ship sailed on. Another banner was hoisted, which signified the battle with the rest of R. H. S. (the inter-class tournament in basketball). Several of our old deck-hands won major and minor R’s. Some were members of the Rensselaerien and Chaos staffs. Some helped to put on the operetta, and thus ended the Freshman year. “All aboard, Soph-o-m-o-r-e-s,” calls Captain Sanders. “We’re off for another year. This year battles were a little harder, but we met them with more enthusiasm and came out with another banner on our mast for winning the inter-class basketball tournament. Mary L. Warner and Leon Kresler won the County Latin Contest in the Caesar division. Some of our members were taken into the Hi-Y and the Masque and Wig. Others starred in football and basketball. At the beginning of a new term the old captain called all hands on deck and Mary Warner was elected captain for ’32. Several Juniors starred cn the athletic teams. Members of our class partly composed the Hi-Y, Masque and Wig, Rensselaerien, Sunshine Society, and two were members of the Chaos staff. All hands put on the weird play “The Call of the Ban- shee in great style. The cannons roared and the sailors passed inspection for the biggest event of the year — the Junior Prom. Sailing, sailing, over the bounding main, Many a wintry wind shall blow, Over the stormy sea; Ere the dear ship F. S. J. Anchors for a farewell voyage in ’33. Page twenty-four 1932 ------

----- THE CHAOS SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY OFFICERS Ralph O’Riley President Beth Gaines Vice-President Jeanette Rowen Secretary-Treasurer SPONSORS Miss Hershman Miss Murphy CLASS COLORS Gold Black MOTTO Dux Vitae Ratio We are green Freshies no longer. On September 7, 1931, we started on the second round of our four-round fight against education. The Sophomore class this year was very well represented in athletics. A number of our boys who went out for basketball will, we hope, make the team next year. Several of our boys got their letters in football. At the beginning of the second semester one of our sponsors, Miss Phipps, left us to teach in Indianapolis. Miss Murphy, commercial teacher, took her place. There was another County Latin Contest this year, and again Jean- ette Rowen carried on the honors of the Sophomore class by taking first place. Howard Beaver also did exceptionally well. Several of the Sophomore girls and boys succeeded in getting on the Rensselaerien staff and in the Masque and Wig Club. Martha Kresler and Janet Sigo had leading parts in the high school operetta, “The Count and the Coed”. Beulah Arnott and Jean Smith had parts in the Masque and Wig play, “Jerry”. Rabin Pullin was one of the few plane geometry students who went to Bloomington to take the state geometry test. Page twenty-six 19 3 2
