They dig right into any job or amusement with the same smiles on their faces as if one gave them as much pleasure as the other. Charles Norris had the pleas- ure of leading this class as freshmen. They were well represented at all the dances and were anything but the usual run of shy freshies. Many of our familiar orange and black band uniforms were donned by these boys and girls as soon as they could get fitted for them. The orchestra claims a portion of their talent which will prove to be a valuable asset in future years. In Mr. Diller's presentation of the operetta, the Chimes of Normandy, he found these musical sophomores indispensable. The actors and actresses of this fine class may be found in the Iunior Dramatics Club which proudly presented them in many assembly programs. Pep? Are you looking for pep? They have it all on the cheerleading squad composed mostly of members of this class-Lois Statler. Betty Ann Fridy, Dorothy Bender, Barbara Ream and Helen Latferty. At football games last fall the girls served refreshments-soft drinks, and piping hot weiners smothered in onions. Excellent bleacher service, too. In the field of sports the boys are really prominent. Of the Varsity Eleven four were sophomores-Howard Christner, Iohn Foley. Charles Vogel, and Bill Kebblish. The I. V. basketball team was four to one in favor of the sophomores.

Little did they know what was be- fore them. Putting their hands to the plow, they were determined to make the best of a new adventure. Now we are beginning to see the results of this determination. The freshmen are becoming well trained serv- icemen-learning to do their duty in the way it helps their countrymen most. Many have, by now, proved their ability in play- ing instruments, in singing, dancing, and acting. Others are keeping up school spirit by being cheerleaders. We know that more members of the freshmen class will show their talents in the near future. Many of the new recruits have attend- ed the sports events and have done much to increase the players' morale. At all the 30 dances the student body is beginning to see that it takes the latest draftees to bring out the true art of fine dancing. Be- sides proving their scholastic ability, the freshmen have been taking part in many phases of war work-participating in scrap drives, helping their fellowmen as Iunilor Commandos, and doing their bit in the Iunior Red Cross. Also, many of the boys of the class are fine Boy Scouts. To do a job well, such a good start is necessary. So, freshmen, continue to do your job the best you know how. With apologies to Mr. Lincoln and his renown- ed Gettysburg Address, The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can 'lnever forget what they did here.
