Sophomore Class The sophomore class of 48-49 has accomplished much this year, although we have lost several of our members. At the beginning of the year there were 25 of us but during the course of the year Ruth Koch, Bill Campbell and Shirley Law changed schools. A new student, Lyle Kirts came into our class at the beginning of the year. At the first of the school term we held a class meeting and elected the follow- ing officers: President-----------------------------------Mary Lee Weir Vice President----------------------------- Kenny Coker Secretary Treasurer Chet Binegar Sgt. at Arms-------------------------------- George Crosby News Reporter--------------------------------- Jean Warren Our first class party was in the gym on Nov. 16, 1948 and we followed out a football season theme. The second semester we planned on a hayride. For now we’ll say “So long’’ to the Sophies and Mr. Thomsen because next year we’ll be juniors and have a new home room. 17

The freshman girls wore clothes wrong side out and backwards, hair in pincurls, no make-up, barefoot. Freshman boys wore clothes wrong side out, barefoot and make-up. At the party we walked blind-fold- ed on tomatoes, cooked macaroni, cooked flax seed and feathers. Our hair was dunked in boiled flaxseed. We all had a good time any way believe it or not. 18
