Paqf Twenty S11 R E F L E C T O R LOG OF THE SS SOPHOMORE AUGUST 31, 1937-We started our journey today. Weather clear. JUNE 1938-We have ended the first sixth of our voyage. Smooth and speedy sailing awards went to Louise Hediger, Jack Deuel, Alice Asplund and others. Weather fair. JUNE 1939-One third of our trip is over. We had the honor of being the last class to have five regents in our eighth year. More honors went to Louise Hediger and Jack Deuel. Weather-slightly hazy. JUNE 1940--Half our journey is passed. We decided to organize the passengers because we had a new cargo, quite large, from Sidney Center and a few others picked up at other ports. Officers were: Captain-Heinz Engelg First Mate-Jeanette Finchg Secretary- Richard Dunneg Treasurer-Ralph Caswell. Individual stateroom re- presentatives were as follows: Mr. Verzaro-Paul Cerquozg Miss Howard-Rosemary Woodg Mrs. Lewis-Robert Comfort. In May we took one jaunt due northeast to Albany where we dropped anchor for the day. We visited many points of interest including the State Capitol Building, the Education Building, the State Office Building and other educational and interesting points. Also we went to their harbor in which we nosed around but none of the boats matched ours for style and speed. After returning home from Albany we settled down to work again. Our class had no junior high graduation. We felt this an injustice. Weather-sea beginning to get bumpy Horizon- Questionable.

Pagc Tw07lfll czght R E F L E C T 0 R LOG OF THE SS SOPHOMOREH JANUARY 1941-For some unknown reason we didn't get around to organize our passengers until after New Years. At our first meeting we elected the following oiicers: Captain-Ralph Caswellg First Mate -Richard Dunneg Secretary - Virginia Chasey Treasurer- Heinz Engel. First stop was the Sidney Roller Palace. Here we all had a good time and made quite a lot to start filling up the treasury with. The crew had many meetings and arguments about future money-mak- ing enterprises. We finally got together and planned to set our feet on dry land and have a movie benefit. We chose to have Son of Monte Cristo . Then came the day when we had our pictures taken for our passports to get in the Refiector. After much difficulty and having about everything but the camera break, we were finally shot. We also planned to have a raid on the galley and sell the loot, soon after Easter. After all our fares and proceeds are collected we hope to have reached our goal. As I bring this to a close, all I can say is that we are a wonderful ship, with excellent advisors, hoping to get to Washington when we are seniors.
