OYlien we were Sophomores (Continued from Page 2) able nook were filled with our biol- ogy cultures. The odors of turtles, damp moss, and growing yeast per- meated our houses. Even when we put the yeast out to air in our gardens, the flies swarmed over it and soared to sudden death when they neared the aromatic mass. We soon found the yeast looking like rice pudding, the jars of moss filled with rain, and the gold-fish floating at the top of the aquarium. Field trips in biology provided us with in- formation about trees, flowers, grasses, wet feet — and oak poison. Our professional book-shelves give evidence of our Sophomore geography course and sag under the weight of books on North America, South America, Europe, and Asia — not to speak of Goode ' s Atlas. Mr. Carey ' s course offered instruc- tion in making hearth rugs, pK m-pom and hooked rugs; picture files, clay jewelry, masks, blue-printing, and constructing miniature rooms. In gym class we climbed ladders, ropes, used parallel bars, jumped the buck, learned hand-stands, cart-wheels, and animal crawls, and limped out of the gym tired and stiff to remain so till the next gym class. In our Sophomore year, too, we began to see lessons in the Demon- stration School and to look forward to teaching in our own class rooms. Yes, our never-to-be-forgotten Sophomore year carries many memo- ries with it. As Sophomores we ended our year in the Spring of 1943, and after a week-end of pure leisure, we began our Junior classes. — ]anet Reyno we were y umors The Junior year of the class of 1945 was as interesting, exciting, and important to us as any account of battle or adventurous lives. The first quarter, which was sepa- rated from the other three by a sum- mer vacation, was devoted to the or- ganization of the class, that is, elect- ing officers, committee chairmen, and a yearbook editor. Martha Cheesman was re-elected as president of the class with new exec- utives: Alice Piatt, secretary; Doro- thy Rapp, vice-president; and Marie Angello, treasurer. Marie was also General Chairman for Junior Week; Anne Williams, assembly chairman; Viola Garofola and Ruth Martino, banquet; and Gladys Daminger, dance. Kathryn Nicholson was chair- man of the class gift committee and Matilda Warner and Genevieve Fabri- zio were elected as co-editors for the yearbook. Each member of the class was on a committee of her choice; and as soon as they were organized, they began to function. After a long summer vacation, we were ready for almost anything: namely, that special week set aside for Junior activities, October 25-30. At that time spooks were on the loose and ghosts ran wild; so did we. The theme of the assembly was United Nations. The program started with the singing of the United Nations Hymn, followed by four short skits featuring China, England, Russia, and the Americas. The banquet used pumpkins, black cats, and owls for programs and place cards. After the dinner, everyone went to the gym and assumed identities of owls, corn- stalks, ghosts, cats, and spooks, and performed for Old Lady Witch. The dance on Saturday night was the finale of the gay, hilarious period known as Junior Week. Hockey was well under way by the end of October. All sections par- ticipated in intermurals. At the end of the season, the Junior II ' s and Freshman II ' s were tied for first place. They played four games after season, but still the title was un- claimed; It was getting too cold so the hockey equipment was put into moth balls and the title was held in abeyance. In April, the two sections played for the delayed glory and after much fighting, the Junior II ' s became the undefeated team and were crowned Hockey Champs. Varsity hockey, after a rest of two
