Though few, we equal in number the Senior class, and pride ourselves of having proved their superior in sports, especially bas- ketball. We gained this superiority when we beat them, or should we say smothered them under , in two consecutive basketball games. In doing this we had a slight advantage over the Seniors due to the fact that half the Iunior class composes the greater part of the A Varsity team. In taking an active interest in sports, we have not become lax in our studies, and, especially, in our religious duties. This latter statement is proven by our perfect attendance at Mass on First Friday. and the amount we have given to the Propagation of the Faith, the class having the highest average in the school. We wish to thank all our teachers for their patience in teaching us English, history, chemistry, and mathematics. We wish to thank especially our home-room teacher, Bro. Stephen, who has taught us the two hardest sub- jects, chemistry and mathematics, and also for the excellent way in which he taught us religion. We wish to thank him also for his pamphlet library. We feel sure that next year we will be capable of replacing the Senior class of 1944. CLASS OFFICERS PRESIDENT e E s , . .E W Edward Leyendecker, Ir. VICE-PRESIDENT . ..-s,,..- Walter W. Stein, Ir.

We could not realize that we were sophomores. Because of our light-headedness, we were dubbed by our teachers the laziest class in high school. This stung our pride, and to prove the contrary we placed five members on the honor-roll the first six weeks, the only class with such a record. We did our best in sports, too. In touch-football we started off with three victories and were only defeated by the league-winning Seniors. We were not discouraged. When basketball season came, we set out with a small team of five to do battle with the mightiest. However, the so-called lower- class Freshmen defeated us in the first game, and we ended in a humble third place. Ernesto Martinez joined the Varsity while Luis Vidaurri and Paul Seitz made the B team: all of them starring for the glory of the Sophomore class. Our class elections resulted in the naming of the following officers who piloted the class through much planning but little action: Charles Fansler, Ir. . .co President Luis Vidaurri ,casa ho- Vice-President Carlos Benavides ov -ow Treasurer Paul Seitz s....v,,,,,,,,,,,o ,ooovoo . -..M Secretary Now that the school year is drawing to an end, we wish to thank all the brothers and especially Bro. Iames, our home-room teacher, for their pat- ient tutoring through the year. We also offer the graduates of '44 our wishes for the best of luck in whatever field they enter. mMEmfmKGh-mDMmfmK?hm3KEz-fdDKGh-dDMa-AEEEa-.mKb..nB'Mz-.nbU3z- -67173531-..-nf-715491.-RE-7 fnfillliin-. fnlbliinsfxrfb 4937 .-nEQ1KC?31.fnEQlKC3as fnE17IC?In.
