FRESHMEN CLASS HISTORY On September third, nineteen forty, a group of fifty-five freshmen gathered together to begin on a new fork in the road of education. We were sorry to find a few of the forty-two eighth grade graduates were not with us, but we were happy to discover many new faces among us. At our first class meeting on October first we elected the following class officers: President, Russell Bushnellg Vice-President, Jesse Scottg Secretary, Betty Davisg and Treasurer, William Gene Lewis. Miss Story served as class adviser. With so much entertainment going on we paid little attention to time and before we knew it those dreaded semesters were upon us. However, after much study and hard work, most of us came through successfully. There have been quite a few freshmen on the six weeks honor roll and just as many on the semester. We are proud of the fact that We had a large number of boys out for all of the athletic events. A large number of the girls joined the Glee Club. T Club and G.A.A. One member of our class was chosen for a part in the high school play, June Mad . Also, we have several members in the mixed chorus. Although we are the newest class, we are looking forward to the time when we will be upperclassmen. But until this time comes, we intend to keep on working and preparing. Then, at last, when the great day comes, we will be able to keep the Roodhouse High School at the top of the list.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTGRY On September 5, 1939, seventy-one students took a further step along the road of education when they entered the Roodhouse High School as Freshmen. Miss Story who acted as our class adviser, called a meeting and the following officers were elected: Bob Neal, Presidentg Lena Mae Havens, Vice-Presidentg Maxine Copley, Treasurerg and Tommy Young, Secretary. We had a larger number of boys out for football and other athletics than any freshman class for several years. We also had many out for Girls' Glee Club and Speech work. Sixty-three students, a slight decrease from last year, began school on September 3, 1940, as Sophomores. Of course it was a great relief to no longer be the youngest class . Shortly everything was underway and a class meeting was called. The following officers were elected: Calvin Smith, Presidentg Bob Neal, Vice-President, Lena Mae Havens, Treas- urerg and Chloe Garner, Secretary. Mr. Storey has very kindly acted as our class adviser. We are proud to say that twenty or more of our boys were out for football and many also took part in basketball and track. Dick Whitney, Kenneth Jackson, Dale Stone and Eugene Newton made the traveling squad in basketball which represented our class very well. Sophomores were represented in speech and music clubs as well as the clubs given us through the Advisory Council. We are looking forward to a very happy and prosperous Junior year.
