We were the forgotten class . . . whose only mark of distinction was to act as Rat Week generals, not little sisters, big sisters, or handbook advisers. The first weeks of school we enjoyed our sophomoreship by passing threatening notes under freshmen doors and chuckling at our own gruesome plans for Rat Week. After rat court our faces cracked as we smiled and decided that the rats had had the better time. May Court elections were victorious for us when five sophomores were announced as winners. Cacky was promoted from the horses ' posterior to the Queen ' s court, and Lu Long was as radiant that Saturday in May as the September Saturday in Atlantic City. Caroline, Sara Sue, and Sarah completed the quintet. During hockey season we sought revenge on the active classes and won the hockey tournament. The Roaring Twenties staged a come-back in Clewell when Frankie and Lou decided that old Davy Jones needed a new life. A house meeting was held, and the class introduced the idea. Heads went together, committees were formed, and the basement was soon busy. Betty Tyler was chairman of the co mmittee to sketch the draw- ings, and Euber posed for endless hours as a flapper; taking time out only to throw in a few steps of the Charleston to add the proper atmosphere. By exams the room was complete with flappers, fhvers, and raccoon coats. At Christmas we rescued our white suits from the moth balls and with pride and sophistication sang Morn- ing Star antiphonally with the seniors. Some of us slipped out the door with our bees-wax candles to take home for the holidays. But darkness descended in April when comprehensives were announced. Time, Theater Arts, and If ' ebsters sud- denly acquired a new meaning, and we fratically learned the latest U.N. developments. After two days of cir- cling the assumed right answers and underlining the synonomous words, we decided that there was a world un- explored. We regained our strength and wrote articles for the Salemite, attended Stee Gee meetings, and spent long hours practicing in the May Dell. May came, and the Shopes ' suntan became the envy of all. We had more nights out, and there were only three more weeks for the forgotten class. This year Frankie Strader was presi- dent of the Sophomore class. Mary Lu Whiteheart served as vice-president, Alice McNeely was secretary, and Al- lison Britt was treasurer. . . . corruption in high places! Officers Allison Britt, Mary Lu Whiteheart, Frankie Strader, and Alice McNeely indulging . . . Really girls, this is not the time tor such things . . . The Old Piano Roll Blues, Shope style. . . 26
