ELECTRON 194 0 S 01444 I, Reddy Kilowatt, will now conduct you through the highlights of the sophomore class. But first. I want to take you back to their freshman year in Riverton High School. V .' Sept. 5 Seventy-nine freshman took out four credits .X 4 each as their admission to R. H. S. f Sept. 6. I witnessed their nrst class meeting in which 'gl Miss Oliver was chosen as their sponsor. Then they .Lp Q undertook the task of choosing capable and reliable officers. 1 They did a good job of this, choosing Bob Dean as president: Earl Crane. vice-president: and Mary Louise j Williams. secretary. Nov. 9. I had a very enjoyable evening at the fresh- man class plays. Two plays were presented. one of which was a IWO-act play called The Mysterious Visitors in Gold Gulch. and a one-act play entitled Orvil1e's Big Date. Dec. ll. Mary Louise Williams was chosen to be their Electron queen candidate and she won second place. Many parties and outings were given and all were well attended and enjoyed. On Sept. 4, 1939, sixty-tive sophomores were reported back for another year of hard and earnest Work in order to add four more credits to their list. Sept. 6. Today, I visited their class meeting and I was very much pleased when they elected Jimmy Oliver, president: A. J. Hutchings, vice-president: and Marie Paradee. secretary. They again chose Miss Oliver, a very capable sponsor. Sept. 11. On this sunny afternoon the entire student body was dismissed to watch the fresh- man initiation. The sophomores enjoyed this very much for they were remembering the time when they were initiated. Sept. 21. I attended a sophomore hamburger fry at Schermerhorn Park in Galena this even- ing and I had a most enjoyable time. Sept. 26. It was the duty of the sophomores to elect two members for the Booster Club today and they did so by choosing Mary Williams and Leila Fribley. I have taken a great deal of interest in the sophomore class and I Gnd that they have placed eleven members in the drum corps. one member on the football team, and four members on the B team in basketball. Oct. 27. A hallowe'en masquerade was given at the club house and all present enjoyed them- selves. Nov. 1. The play cast was chosen and intensive practice has begun. This year's play is entitled Pigtails. Nov. 23. Jack Callaway went to Arcadia to enter the oratorical contest and we were all overjoyed when he won first place. Dec. 12. I again had the honor of witnessing their class play which was given tonight to a large audience. Dec. 15. This year the sophomores elected Alma Jones and Wesley Evans to represent them in the Electron Prince and Princess contest. U Dec. 22. From the Christmas tree I peeped today and a very merry sight met my eyes. for the sophomores were having their Christmas exchange. Jan. 10. Woe is me, for the semester examinations were given today, but the sophomores came through with flying colors. placing several on the semester honor roll. Feb. 8. Tonight I went to West Mineral to witness the Mo-Kan League one-act play contest. Riverton won first place. and I was proud to learn that two members of the cast were sophomores. Mar. l. I watched the sophomores present the assembly program today, and it was a very good one. Two short plays were presented. A. J. Hutchings played a piano solo. and Lelia Beets sang a solo. Mar. 15 I was taken to the skating rink and there I viewed the class having a lot of fun on a skating party. Mar. 22. Ed Hudson sang a solo at Liberal, and won second place. May 17. Hurrah! School is out for a long summer vacation but I know that next year's juniors will be back next fall anxious for the new school year. The close of school was celebrated by the annual class picnic.
