Our first official N SEPTEMBER lst, l923, we embarked on our High School career. Our act, as a class, was the election of officers for the year. Donald VVright was chosen president, Mildred Purdy, vice president and Ruth Plikerd, secretary. The class colors were purple and white and carnation became our chosen flower. Our first social activity was a Weiner roast held at Deep Cut. This proving a success, we gave a hallowe'en party in the school laboratory. Later we took part in a high school party given in honor of the Basket Ball boys. Our Sophomore year began with the addition of five new classmates. We were by this time full fledged students of S. H. S. Our officers for the year were chosen: Mary Kleinoeder, Presidentg Samuel Koenig, Vice Presidentg Walter King, Secretary. Wei gave a Weiner roast for the Freshmen at the Ramsey home. The night chosen was very cloudy but nevertheless we completed the journey. Things were going quite well when the clouds, which had been threatening all day, began to pour upon ourselves and the fire a deluge of rain. All beat a hasty retreat to the house where the rest of the evening was spent. A few weeks later we were guests of the Freshmen at a weiner roast at Peggy's lnn. After this, followed weeks of consecutive study, broken occasionally by chapel programs, a Christmas entertainment and Basket Ball games. We contributed. a number of athletes to the School, who have helped to uphold the honor of S. H. S. in those activities. We have a number of able readers who have shown their ability along that line in the Oratorical Contest. Our class afforded the High School cheer leader, Milton Hullinger and the star candy sellers, Mildred Purdy and Ruth Plikerd. The High School Base Ball team consisted chiefly of Sophomores. YVe have a number of promising track stars. We are looking forward to a prosperous Junior year. 20
