S. in September, 1926. The battle, for that is what it may justly be called, represented the Frosh 1nvasion and was staged for the purpose of acquiring a higher education. The memorable event has gone down in Sunbury Hi History, and in years to come will still prove outstanding. In short time the Sophs hoisted a Hag of truce, and gallantly the inexperi- enced Freshmen showed tact by organizing under the able leadership of Robert Hackett, President, and Mr. Ralph XYoodruff, Advisor. That feeling of XYhere aiu 1? soon wore off and the new arrivals were greeted as old veterans of high school lore. Social activities including plays, sports. and parties were indulged in, and all proved a success. Consequentlyfin 1927, the class strode on, and the Verdant Freshmen were hailed as Sophs by the student body. Thus, the 1926 Frosh advanced in order to admit another class of greenies into the building of 1927. As Sophomores, one problem after another was discussed and settled with precision. Miss Kawell was appointed our advisor that year. as Mr. Nlroodruff was no longer a member of the faculty. A play written and directed by Peggy Scott was presented by some members of the class at the Sophomore Party, and later in chapel. Although this play was indeed amateurish, many enjoyed the light plot and comedy contained in it. Pins and rings were selected during the Sophomore year, and the orderliness of the selection was commended by faculty and agents concerned. XYith drooping spirits the class faced the junior Year. That jolly year was dimmed at the beginning by sad news-Bob Hackett could not return to school because of ill health. Gradually. however, new life and pep were restored and Bob Hackett was elected honorary president while Philip Smith was elected President. The junior Class Play, Yes! Yes, Go Un, went off with a bang, and much credit was due Miss Moyer, who coached it. The junior Prom was staged in a new way. The class broke tradition that year, due to the fact that they omitted the banquet, which in previous years was included with the Prom. Few objections were raised, and juniors and Seniors alike had a splendid time. The Prom having ended our eventful junior Year, the class enjoyed a pleasant vacation, and returned in the fall as Seniors. XYith quiet dignity the laurels of past accomplishments were borne, and a fine group of upperclassmen renewed their yet unfinished work. The Senior Class Play, The Radio Mystery , was presented in March, and was entirely different from any play ever attempted. Because it was a singular play, it brought new enjoyment to the audience, and the curtain rang down on a most happy and successful presentation.
