ROCKET--- 1927 HISTORY OF SOPHOMORE CLASS When R. H. S. flung wide her portals on September of 1926. the students who were to become Sophomores of ’27 entered with joy and of course, a few sorrows, as many of the previous year’s classmates were missing. The prospects of being sophomores was indeed very bright, for were we not to direct the wavering footsteps of the poor “li’l freshies?” After the first week or so, we finally settled down to work (W-O-R-K) and the classes (academic and commercial) were organized under the supervision of their respective home-room teachers. These were Miss Hickerson and Mr. Gardner. The election of officers was held and the students chosen to help direct our classes were: First Semester—Academic Eugenia Hardy Representative Elsie Purdum Secretary Second Semester Marie Clarke Representative Elsie Purdum Secretary First Semester—Commercial James Ryan Representative Catherine Rabbitt Secretary Second Semester Dorothea Hoskinson Representative Catherine Rabbitt Secretary As students, the sophomore class has made a high standing. Many have been citizens for all the months and almost all have been at some time members of the Citizenship Society. The sophomore class has produced the following honor-roll students: Alger Barbee, Marie Clarke. Somervell Dawson. Mary Fisher. Eugenia Hardy, Bettie Hickerson, Dorothea Hoskinson. Dorsey Hughes, Anne Knight. Frank Marshall. Claude Orndorff, Lucille Penn, Reeva Powers, Elsie Purdum, and Margaret Ward. In the social activities of R. H. S. the Sophomores played an important part. Many of them have been taking an active part in club work. Those athletically inclined were given their chance in the baseball, basketball, soccer, volley and field ball of which the “Sophs” were often victorious. Without any serious calamities, just an occasional near-calamitv, such as going up the wrong way on one-way stairs, our sophomore year has proceeded peacefully, and it is all too quickly drawing to an end.
