That is the very pleasing thought in the minds of all Sycohi sophomores beginning their new 1945-46 term. Ah! the thrill of being upper-lower class- men, that in-between stage. Now it's our turn to watch, with an air of superiority, the new freshmen in their fran- tic search for their respective rooms and teachers. We view sympathetically the attempts to open their lockers accompanied by many a puzzled frown ni and futile twistin 1' and turnin of the combinations. NVe also viewed, un- .-.

This and the honor roll established this year are the first opportunities we have had for scholastic recognition, and again a good percentage of juniors made the grade. Of course the main social event of the year was the junior-Senior Prom. Funds to cover expenses were raised hy the sale of the pencils, concessions at games, and profits from the candy machine. The decoration and entertain- ment committees did particularly fine work, helping greatly in the success of the prom. Class officers this year were: Clifford Ells, presidentg jim Potter, vice-presidentg Don Gustafson, secretary: and Dorothy King, treasurer. Our class sponsor was Miss Hulbert. With the completion of final examinations the class of '47 brought their junior year to a close, leaving a rec- ord not easily equalled, and looking forward to'a hright future as seniors. f lst Row: Milton Westlake, Stanley Racich, Clayton McCue, James Patterson, Herbert Renwick, Donald Stearns, Rex Morrison, Dick Smith 2nd Row: Louise Woodward, Betty Sloniker, Marilyn Lloyd, Elsie Nimerfroh, Chester Wig, Robert Westberg, Jeanne Smith, Esther Strong, Mary Taylor 3rd Row: Donald Tedford, Stuart Nelson, Howard Scott, Joy Nieborgall, Audrey McCullah, Donna Wisted, Dolores Meier, Merle Swedberg, Robert Wallace, James Potter 4th Row: Lo Vern London, Grayce Stroud, Elise Singer, Rose Rickard, James Schwab, Lester Wolfe, Grace Lindquist, Lillian Singleton, Velma McMillan, Marion Lindgren, Margaret Morgan .

.SJOIQAOHZOPQJ ' Class Officers Seated: Gertrude Johnson, Secretary, Miss Keeler, Advisor, Roger Brooke, Treasurer Standing: Marshall King, Vice-presidenty Orville Chambers, President As the weather became colder, football became less popular and the boys turned to a winter season of basket- ball. Those of the sophomore class who helped to make a successful year for the Ponies were Dick Troeger, Art Gilmore, Hezzy McClean, Roger Brooke, Roland Smith, Swede Higgins, and Sam Kocher. Neither football nor basketball would be complete without the aid of the morale4building cheerleaders, and we are proud to say that one of them,'Barbara jahns, is a member of the sophomore class. Besides football and basketball the sophomores have entered into many' other school activities. There is a large sophomore group in the A'Cappella Choir, baud, operetta, and choruses. The class also boasts members in the G. A. A., Pep Club, and on the Leaves staff. This year the sophomores elected the following as their class ollicers: Orville Chambers, president, Marshall King, vice-president, Gertrude johnson, secretary: and Roger Brooke, treasurer. lst Row: Richard Troeger, Donald Swanson, George McMillan, Roland Smith, Arthur Palm, Emmett Mclean, Francis Vos- Burgh, Michael Racich Q 2nd Raw: Robert Wildenradt, James Stark, Jean Rubeck, Judy Wade, Arnold McMillan, Sally Riley, Norma Wordan, Vir- ginia Villegas 3rd Row: Marilyn Wood, Dolores Sederberg, Sally Stevens, Joyce Uting, Adeline Nimerfroh, Maxine Lingren, Donna Parker, Lillian Westhouse, Elaine Riley 4th Row: Margaret Miner, Cora Lowe, Jean Mclean, Clara Yunker, Jacquelyn Whitman, Arliss Nelson, Joan Sandstrom, Gail Parks, Colleen O'Connor -
