TIGHT ROPE WALKERS One bright morning in August approxi- mately eighty studious boys and girls con- tinued the building of their education. Three months before, they had completed the part of the building called the Sophomore year. Now they were ready to advance to another story in the educational structure by starting the junior year. Most of the members of this cheery group knew each other well, having been together through previous classes in their school work. But some strange faces joined the group for the first time and were quickly introduced to the others and made to feel as members of the bunch. The usual confusion of the first few weeks when irregularities in programs were adjusted and the methods used by new teach- ers were becoming familiar soon passed. Then studies and activities became routine matters enjoyed by some, endured by others, and despised by few. The officers who successfully directed the class during the year were: President, Wes . an 4 Hong get S xdeftl' Walls 5 or Oiilceilflcfofjelu asm Wallaceg Vice President, Gene Kauffman, Secretary, Cindy Dunckelg Treasurer, Hannah Robson. Bob Barrett, Dick Ott, and Rose Mary Wertz were elected by the juniors to express their views in Student Council. Mr. Ott, Mrs. Davis, Miss Gerhardt, and Miss j. Williams guided the class in its many activities. When extra-curricular activities were or- ganized for the school year, many boys and girls from the junior class quickly joined with the other students in carrying out the pro- grams. Among these groups, the band, the orchestra, and the chorus were sources of enjoyment for those who were musically in- clined. The athletically minded individuals found an outlet for their feelings in football. basketball, track, intramural sports, and other activities. The various other organizations of the school elected juniors as members and some of them as officers. The Yodler staff, which was composed entirely of juniors, was under the leadership of john Horty, who did a bang up job of editing the paper.

The next step was the election of home room repre- sentatives to serve on Student Council. The members who were chosen were Dean Folke- mer, lean Rogers, and Owen Hunt. This ad- ministration, under the supervision of its class advisers, Mr. McIlnay,lMrs. Hozik, Miss Boyer, and Mrs. Rose, worked diligently to make the Sophomore year one of the highlights of this class's high school career. Moving into high gear, the class set about the task of sponsoring its annual party. After much deliberation, it was decided that the affair should consist of a swap party, danc- ing, and a musical quiz. The majority of the class attended and all agreed that they had had a wonderful time. A large number of Sophomores took part in school athletics, both varsity and intramu- ral. The class was represented on.the varsity football team by David Coulson, Hubert Strange, Albert Henze, Dick Hornick. Owen Hunt, and Roland Ciccone. A few Sophomores also participated in Iunior varsity football. On the basketball court Dave Coulson, Hubert Strange, Dick Hornick, and Bill Gregory repre- sented the class as members of the Iunior varsity. In the field of intramurals, both the boys' and girls' teams illustrated the line spirit and good sportsmanship which have been characteristic of the class. Their cheer- 'leader, Patty Lou Wright, was outstanding for her pep and vitality. Moreover, the Sophomores showed that they had intellectual as well as physical ability. They studied thoroughly and conscientiously, a fact which may be proved by reading the roll of honor students. The names which appeared on the roll most often included David Cohoe, Paul McGill, Bob Barry, David Coulson, La Rue Hillegass, and Dick Hornick. The students displayed exceptional talent in self-expression and phrasing in their themes, promising a high-pressure staff for the Yodler next year.
