It was the second sophomore class to be organized in Roosevelt. However, we were not allowed to organize until we presented a pro- ject that would be of service to the school, so the class set out to make Roosevelt's rooting section the best in the city. It was only a short time until we had elected class oflicers. We investigated the games to see what was lacking in our rooting section. As a result of this investigation a drill team, a yell team, and two song leaders were elected. The direction of the class project was under the supervision of an executive board which had charge of all business matters. The members of the executive board were the class officers and also two representatives, a boy and a girl, from each home room. At each meeting the representatives of the board brought to- gether the opinions and wishes of the entire class. Even before the class was organized, we felt we had manifested our ability to put things over, by selling candy and popcorn at the P. T. A. dance in March. Perhaps Mr. Otto thought so, too, for he soon gave us permission to organize! Tfwenty-four

Hurley Organized in the fall of 132 in time to sponsor the first Senior High dance Armistice Embarlccaderol' on November 9, 1932, the Class of '3-1 set forth on a year of activity. The Snow Carnival followed on January 13, 1933, with all the hilarity of a trip to the High Sierras in midwinter. 'lihe third and last dance on lllay 18, 1933, was highly flavored with Spring in all its joy of blossoms and sunshine. The class sweater was adopted in the Spring of '33, thus allowing the February Class as well as the June Class the privilege of two semesters of service. The Feb- ruary Class is practically one hundred percent blue . Co-operation of our class members, faithfulness of class officers, home-room rep- resentatives, and sponsors have brought results which all will remember. Tfiwvzty-llzrn'

Sophomore Yell-Drill Team The class of '35, although still a young organization, has already done much toward the completion of its project. The drill team, made up of thirty-two girls, has shown much ability. As an aid to the Student Body yell leader, a yell team was organized, working in unison in leading the yells. On the day that Roosevelt defeated Fresno High in baseball 21-3, the class of '35 put on a skit during a rally, forecasting our victory. The drill team made its first appearance using green and gold cards to form the letters. The team is planning on doing fancy marching and forming of serpentines, but this will not be done until the football season next fall. Every Wednesday' during home room period the class has a meeting in the auditorium. At these meetings the class of '35 band, composed of eleven members, takes charge of the musical part of the program. Before the interclass track meet the Juniors and Sophomores joined forces in order to be better trained for rooting at the track meet. The two grades held com- bined meetings to prepare songs and yells. In April the girls of the class put on a very interesting pantomime for the Girls' Leagueg the boys of the class put on another pantomime at the P. T. A. Carnival that same month. During the spring the class of '35 had a dancing class in which forty-two were enrolled. All in all, the group seems to be well on its way as far as organization is concerned. lt should be capable of assuming the duties of the Junior Class next fall. T-wenly-yffve
