SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY We, the members of the Sophomore class, to form a more perfect school, establish friendship, promote a general good time, and secure the advantages of an education, entered the W.C.H.S. for the first time on September 3, 1933. Since it was the custom to elect officers of the class, an advisor, and to choose class colors and flower, we elected James Robbins, president; Billy Perkins, vice president; Aldene Lehn, secretary-treasurer; Mr. Steninger, advisor; and we chose blue and white as class colors, and the violet, our flower. Although a number of parties were had the Freshman-Sophomore party stands out, for we were initiated. Later we came face to face with mid-year exams. During the second semester we combined with the Juniors to give a George Washington party. After we had faced the semester exams again, we brought our first year to a close by attending the all-school picnic at Nelson Park. Having rested and enjoyed ourselves for the few vacation months we started back to W. C. H. S. as Sophomores in September, 1934. We were under the leadership of James Robbins and Annabel Faith, with Miss Smith as our advisor. Several parties were held and we took part in three ticket sale contests. Finally the year was brought to a close by the annual “All School Picnic” held at Nelson Park. -21- BILLY PERKINS.
