SOPHOMORE CLASS Have you heard about the biggest achievement of Class of 47 ? It is that we are now very well rep- resented on the starting line up of the basketball team. During the season Glen Bahler, center; Ken Shoup and George Smith, forwards; and Byrom Ma- lone, guard; were on the starting line up. Clifford Beaver and Buster Smith are two more sophomores who were substitutes. We were also well represent- ed in football. Certain little imps, gremlins to you, caused a lot of confusion at our class meetings. Johnnie Barnes had quite a time trying to call the meeting together with the gremlins tripping all over the tops of the desks. We made posters and banners (with the aid of Helpful Hanna ) for the Crown Point football game which, with all our aid from Fumbling Fred, we lost. We now have 79 gremlins in our class. They are watched over at class meetings by Mr. Bundy and Mrs. Stump. OFFICERS Standing, left to right: Shoup, Mr. Bundy, Mrs. Stump, Barnes, Hoyes. 25

THE FRESHMEN CLASS Ninety-two freshmen gremlins enrolled in Rensselaer High School to begin the school term. Two-thirds of the elfkins came fresh from Hanging Grove, Jor- dan, Marion, Newton, and South Barkley. After they were duly initiated by the upper-classmen, they settled down to the intricacies of algebra and Latin. Seventeen went out for football and each hoped to be a future Red Grange. Twenty-three signed for basketball and will possibly make the team next year. The girls were initiated into the Dolly Madison Club, G. A. A., and Sunshine Society. Boys went into F. C. A., F. F. A., and Hi-Y. Several joined the Science and Math Club. Two boys are reporters for the Rensselaerian. Eleven are in the band. Many be- long to the chorus. The freshmen are not as green as on September fourth and gradually the knowledge is soaking in. The members of the class of 48 want to make their contributions as memorable as those of classes of years past, and they hope to live up to the reputa- tion established for them in R. H. S.
