Z hW f t lf ff, if U TW 0, ff .. X i f g if is y 4, ,fl ,, - History of the Sophomore Class oooo During our freshman year in high schoolg our class was not organized, but wehad some good times, anyway, with the help of Miss McMahon. VVe had one or two sledding parties which were fairly well attended and greatly enjoyed. Besides these a picnic was held in Potter's Hollow. At the beginning of this school year a meeting was held to organize the class, and the following officers were elected: ,William Skinner, presidentg Grace Louise Oswalt, vice-president, and Frederick Test, secretary-treasurer. lt was decided also to have Miss McMahon as our class advisor. This year, too, we have been having some good times, having had two parties in the High School. At the school party, sponsored by the Senior Class, our class stunt took second prize. Sophomores have taken a fairly prominent part in school activities. A Sophomore girl won second place in the constitutional oratorical contest of the school g two of the boys on the relay team, which won from Jefferson, were Sophomoresg a Sophomore took a First and a third in the high school gymnas- tic meet this yearg and there are usually a good number of Sophomores on the honor roll. Next year we hope to come up to all that will be expected of us and to have a bigger and better class. FREDERICK TEST. Page Twenty-eight

Calendar-Continued 99004 Wednesday, 23-iToday has been a great day in many respects. Mr. Gardner told us about his trip to Europe and evidently wasn't satisfied until he talked about food so much that we almost died of hunger. To top that off, Hal Price, the woman hater, at last succumbed to the irresistible powers of Peg Strate and walked home with her! Thursday, 24-Thanksgiving day. No school till Monday. Whoopie! Friday and Saturday, 25, 26--Just one grand and glorious vacation. 4 Monday, 28-Vacation sure left its mark of dumb-A ness. Marjorie Smith can't remember when Economics comes. Miss McMahon hasn't re- turned to school yet, and we're getting anxious now. It's too bad the teachers have so much tough luck with their feet. Tuesday, 29--Mr. Guard announces the baby 'looks like him. Don't get discouraged, it has a lot of time to get better looking. Juniors win from Freshmen 33-1, but better still, Seniors win from Sophomores 20-5. Wednesday, 30-Seniors win from Juniors 17-14. Hal Price appears with Kiss Me signs on his sweater. Junior Play dress rehearsal. More data, Charles R. and China go traveling to the office. They just couldn't stay away any longer. Hope you enjoyed your trip, boys! DECEMBER, 192i Thursday, 1-Our last hope is gone. Our most respected, honored Editor-in-Chief lost all his dignity when he fell down stairs? Not over this shock, we almost passed out when we gazed at our pictures. We feel, with these two shocks to our experiences, that we will be able to see the faculty's pictures tomorrow and not faint. Friday, 2-The Junior sweaters appeared. The Seniors played the Faculty. Naturally the .fac- ulty won 17-14. We wonder where Mr. DeBard got those bloomers. We thought he went to Wabash, not to I. U. Last night of Junior - play, Six or Seven Secrets. Sure went over big. Saturday, 3-People still talking about the play. Some people act like Prfs had never been kissed before. Monday, 5v-Mr. Gardner broadcasted from WBAA. Surely was natural, and oh if he had only said, Throw out that gum, we would have been quite sure he was in the room. Page Thirty Tuesday, 6-Miss McMahon comes back. We're all plenty glad to see her. Wednesday, 7wThe Literary Club gave their tirst program in Public Speaking. My, but it was interesting to see Dorothea Gregory shut win- dows. I Thursday, 8-Real work starts on the Annual. We're plenty glad, too. Friday, 9-Big pep session and everything. We beat Monitor 37-30. That's a swell spirit and our first game! Saturday, 10-Everyone turned out to the ban- quet at the church. There wasn't a thing arti- ficial about it. Russ Smith got mad like he always does in football. Monday, l2+ Midge Bundy takes a trip to the waste basket. Well, there's always the first time for everything. Tuesday, 13-We're pasting your pretty faces in the Annual, kids. Q Wednesday, 14-,Report cards and new rules ap-4 pear. Not much hope left for our crowd. The English classes are writing a story of their lives. We never knew they possessed such an- gelic traits. Thursday, 15--Lots of shiny noses annear and for once no gum is in circulation. Charles R. moves his seat in Econom'cs. No one under- stands why the sudden change. Friday, 16-Much to our sorrow, the teachers send slips to the folks at home. Dayton played West Side here and won, 32-38. The girls served some swell hot dogs and candy. Saturday. 17--Just cold weather and lots of frozen toes. 'Most of the little Freshmen went down town to see Santa Claus. Monday, 19- Midge Bundy told the class she didn't remember her First thoughts of Santa Claus but she did remember when some one told her there wasn't any. Alumni are visiting school. Tuesday. 20-Christmas tree is put for the little Seniors by Miss Cunningham. We've some pret- ty swell jumners. Five girls can jumn three feet three inches in gym. Annual Sunshine Christ- mas party. Lots of fun. Wednesday, 21--Convocations are getting better all the time. Rev. Williams spoke, and every bit of his speech was enjoyed. Miss Sim?son finds mistletoe in her room. Lots of teachers are presented with chewing gum. Alumni played us and we lost 32-28, but we've got a swell team anyway.
