t) THE SUCCESSU5 3d 5QPHDMDRE5 Up from the ranks of green freshmen, to the class of silly sophomores I However, they have prided themselves on living down that name this year. There are fifty-two young hopefuls in the sophomore class and they have kept the high school humming with their activities. Several struggled with algebraic rules and attempted to find X in advanced algebra; some took mathematics in a simpler way by enrolling in commercial arithmetic; and others learned about the whys and wherefores of big business in junior business training. Caesar's deeds in the Gallic Wars proved to be interesting in Latin three and four. Even his trip to Britian was interesting, but a few students wished he had stayed there. The class was divided in opinion about botany and biology, so one group studied plants and the other pursued the study of animals, and all of them learned about the history of the world. English, in the form of grammar and literature, was taken by the whole sophomore class. For one semester the class studied health education which Included a unit on safe driving. High school art provided an interesting course for several students this year; and most of the class spent two periods each week in physical education which included such activities as: soccer, basketball, volleyball, Indian kick- ball, stunts, and baseball. Also, some of the boys liked industrial arts so well as freshmen that they took an advanced course this year. Many of the more musical-minded sophomores added their large bit to the High School Orchestra, Band, and Glee Club. A group of the class is Included in Lee Anderson's Swing-O-Paters. The basketball team profited by the skill of several sophomore players. The Wildcats won several games which might have been lost without their aid. The first and second teams of next year will include several members of the class. As the class was not organized this year it had no regulated activities. A few skating parties were held, but these were unofficial. Next year—upper classmen they will be I The thought of the junior-senior events planned for next year is a thrilling vista to look forward to, and with Miss Brady as their class adviser they expect to hit new highs in the history of Union City High School. 20

19 THE SUCCESSUS 38 rRESHMEN The freshmen class, whose members will soon become sophomores, has a total enrollment of fourty-four. This class has much of the pep,vim, vigor, and vitality needed to enliven the high school. All the freshmen boys who went out for spring basketball hope to make the team next fall. Many of them also entered spring baseball practice. All the boys take active parts in boys' intra-mural events. However, the girls are not to be outdone by the boys.They entered the Indian kickball and volleyball tournaments. Their opponents always seemed to be the sophomore girls who usually defeated them. Many of the girls belong to the Sub-Deb Club. Some even have active positions as officers. Two members of our class,Martha Jane Schricker and Eugene Caupp, are on the Student Council. Many freshmen are in the band and orchestra and two students have active positions on the Westerner staff as reporters. There are many representatives in the Glee Club, and several on the bowling teams. This class should make a name for itself in the next three years. 22
