We pass sorrowfully from our happy, care-free verdancy to the burdensome responsibilities of Sophomores, leaving a record which reflects to our lasting credit, credit. Among our number we have two who won their letters in football. Hansen, Hanks, Chatwood and Heffern answered Coach Collins ' roll call on the first line basketball team and contributed heavily to the season ' s victorious record. They wound up the season in a fitting way by winning the inter-class tournament. The Freshman Dance in March evidenced our leadership in social affairs. With the cooperation of the Sophomores, we sponsored the only class dance of the year ( if we may be permitted to take exception to the Junior Prom). No comment on the dance is necessary for every student on the campus and some from town were among those who enjoyed the fine music and good fellowship of the occasion. The Polygraph, Student Government, Oratory, Dramatics, the Service Club, the Church, and this Annual have all called for contributions of brain and brawn from our class, and we feel just pride in the way we have responded to the call. As this, our Freshmen year, ends, we have one regret which we share with all our associates. That is for the absence of our former friend and classmate, Jimmie Craw. 27

t .i„ „i . i THE 1927 L Y Seated: Harris Swartz, Mabel McDonald, Mildred Coons, Miss Clark, Eula Frazier, Sadie Porter, George Levi Standing-: Robert Koraoll, Wm. Kline, Everett Klunder, Marcus Whitten, James Carmack Not Present: Thelnia Shiveiy, Ralph Matteson, Helen Broadus SOPHOMORE CLASS Last fall the Sophomore Class began a year of activity by being one of the first classes to organize. After some debating they chose Miss Clark for sponsor, Robert Komoll for President, Sadie Porter for Vice-President, and Harris Swartz for Secretary-Treasurer. The Sopohmore class boasts of having members in every student organization on the campus. There are three members who were on the football team and won their letters; five members in the chorus; one member on the stock-judging team which was sent to Bozeman to represent the Polytechnic at the Vocational Confer- ence; two members make a half of the male quartet; five members hold responsible positions in the Student Government ; one ranks high in the societies — and so it goes all the way down the list. In the way of social activities the Sophomores, combined with the Freshmen, are credited with the dance which was given on March 26th in honor of Mr. L. T. Eaton ' s fifty-eighth birthday. It was proclaimed by all to be the best dance given during the year. As the year 1926-27 closes, the Sophomore Class feels that they have just reached the half-way station, and that vacation is only a time when their energies may be renewed for another lap. sis 26 -§f|

Under the guidance of our very able sponsor, Mr. Loftus H. Ward, the Prepar- atory II Class has culminated a very successful year and are now one step nearer the top of the ladder. Although we may be slow and as some say green, we have aspirations for reaching our tentative goal in the near future. We call ourselves the Preparatory Class because our motto is, Get a founda- tion to build upon. We have been somewhat handicapped by a small class-enrollment but we are proud of the fact that we have done our utmost to support and participate in all the campus activities. Next year we hope to hold the position which the Freshman College Class have bragged about so long. 28 (US ■ §H
