.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 -

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- .-.

A The arrival of the Freshmen last fall caused general confusion for awhile. I'm sure my big sister said Miss Jordan's room was in the basement. ' The ofhce is near the assembly, but where is the assembly? The second day was better and by the third most of us could find the way from one class to another in only a little more than three minutes. lVheu the football season began, many of the fresh- men boys could be found out on the field practicing. Aix Next came basketball, and quite a few went out for that c 10 too. ' 9 To us, the initiations were something to look forward f Q l -, - to with apprehension. One afternoon in the fall, you X fi? might have seen boys at school with their pantlegs rolled X AVN' in . ua, doin unusual thin s, or, if the were luck , 'ust X X, Z l S 8 Y Y J W,, f - dod in seniors.
