Mason Sattcrthwaite had a perfect record on the honor roll until the past year. Daniel and Raymond Gutzwiller brought honors to Roosevelt through their swimming performances. The girls of the room were more successful athletes than the boys, for they came in second on the volley ball championship the first semester and captured first place in basket ball the second.

Several of the forty-two were recently added to the group. These included Arthur Anderson, Donald Beck, Velma Lynch, Robert Johnson. and Douglas Fraley. For the past semester the group had the following members for home-room olificers: president, Gerson Amdurg vice-presidents, Harry Unger and Vincent Smithg secretary and treasurer, Douglas Fraley. Service officers of the group for the same period were Harry Unger for student council representative: Vera Friberg for reporter: Virginia Koch for girls' sanitary officer, Howard Polombi and Fred Heingeroth for boys' sanitary officersg and Donald King and NVallace Breon for traffic officers. A number of boys in the group were musically inclined, for Harry Unger was a mem- ber of the band, and Howard Polombi, Fred Heingeroth, and Rodney Anderson were members of the orchestra. Perhaps they were influenced by Miss Naime Eckberg, the well-liked home-room teacher, who is a member of Rockford's musical groups and a musician of note. Parties and good times were also a part of the group's activities. The Hal- loween party this year was held at Georgia Haseman's home, and the Christmas party was given at school. At Thanksgiving time, instead of having a party, the group made up a basket of provisions with which they made a poor family happy. fwz'm'y-four
