----- 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

THE CHAOS FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY r Edd Randle Edith Lesh Frances Murphy President Vice-President Secretary-Treasurer Miss Neal, Mr. Bundy Sponsors September 7, 1931, was destined to become one of the outstanding dates in the annals of R. H. S., for that day marks the entrance of the class of ’35 into its halls. Although upperclassmen, and even some of the teachers, have at times been a bit backward about giving recognition to the unusual merits of this group, such superior worth cannot long remain hidden. For the first few weeks they felt rather lost in the new building, but after the newness of it wore down they settled down to make a name for themselves. The Freshmen had several boys out for football and also a good number out for basketball. The Freshman girls also did their part in the year’s athletics by winning the girls’ annual inter-class basketball tournament. Not only in athletics did they do their part, but they also shone in scholastics. Glen Toben won second place in the district math contest. Harry Bell and Glen also went to the County Latin Contest, where Glen placed first. One of the members of the Freshman class had a place on the Rensselaerien staff and they also had a member on the debate team. Although the Freshmen did not contribute so very much to R. H. S. this last year, they hope in future years to do their share as those who have gone before them have done. 1 9 3 2 ' Page twenty-eight
