,.,,,., WHITONIAN ....... SOPHOMORE CLASS After suffering the hardships of Freshmen, the class of '37 started out its second year of high school with a Nbangn, having as class ad- visor Mr. W. E. Thomas, the coach of athletics. At the beginning of the year there were thirty-four members in the class. This was later re- duced to thirty-one when three members moved away to attend other schools. The class elected the following officers: President Robert Barnett Vice President Allen Allion Secretary Evelyn Studer , Treasurer I Robert Green The class hoped that these officers would fill their positions well and found as the school year went on that they had no reason to regret their choice. The class held their first party near Maumee. This party, which was a weiner roast, was thoroughly enjoyed and the class hoped to have another one like it. During the year they had two other parties outside the school, one of which was for Bertha Longenecker, who moved to Penn- sylvania.. Just before Christmas vacation the class presented a program to the high school students. This program, which was enjoyed by all, showed the ability of the class as actors and actresses. In athletics the class was well represented. In football six soph- omore boys made the varsity team. In basketball seven boys were on the first and second teams. The boys are also taking an interest in base- ball and track. The girls were well represented on the soccer, basket- ball, softball, and other athletic teams of the G. A. A. Three girls received letters for taking part in all sports. Besides being prominent in athletics the class took active part in the Glee Club, the school paper, and in student programs. The Sopho- mores placed seven members on the scholarship team. The class also took a trip to the Art Museum in Toledo on February 21. The purpose of going was to see a picture named nThe Human Adven- turen. This feature showed modern expeditions digging up villages, buildings, and tools of ancient civilizations and also translating in- scriptions that were on the buildings. By accident, the class was con- ducted on a tour of a small portion of the museum by a guide, and all were surprised at the skillful workmanship that was displayed in some of the glassware, mummy cases, and other art objects which they examined at the museum. Everyone enjoyed the trip and expressed a desire to go back again. As a history project, the historical movie NClive of Indian was sponsored by the class. The main purpose of sponsoring the show was to increase the funds in the class treasury. The class earned 3l5.00, NBobn Barnett, Chester Strayer, and Evelyn Studer winning prizes for selling the most tickets. The class hopes to prove in their Junior and Senior years that they have the ability and the ambition to make themselves one of the best classes of Whitehouse High School. Robert Green sz

Later, the Junior boys, together with the other boys of the high school, entered the intramural passball tournament, which was won by a team coached by Harley Barhite. From the Junior class there were eight boys who had the opportunity to play on the varsity basketball team. During the season, .homever, other players from the other three classes replaced some of these boys on the first team. Six Juniors received letters, while two received numerals. The Junior girls also showed their skill at basketball .by winning the intercless tournament. There were also six Junior girls on the girls varsity basketball squad, which played teams from Monclova and Grand Rapids. In February the Seniors gave a party in honor of the Juniors, to which all of the Juniors were invited. This party was hold in the school cafeteria, and gave us a period of recreation before we began work on the Junior play, WMan or Mouso.W After many rehearsals we pre- sented our play very successfully on March 28. The members of the cast were: Virginia Boyer, Gerald White, Lenora Sprink, Lester Winslow, Dan- iel Sprink, Orville Bucher, Isabelle Eckel, Carl Kurz, Carol Bucher, John Weckerly, Charles Bradley, Margaret Heller, Willard Bidmell, and Leah Hall. With the coming of warmer weather in spring, the boys began train- ing for track and baseball. The girls also began training for track. There were four Junior boys on the baseball squad for the 1935 seasong and the others played on teams in the High School softball tournament. Five Juniors were on the scholarship team of the high school, sev- eral worked regularly on the Hi-Lightg and many were in the Glee Club and operetta. Our Junior-Senior Banquet was given on May the 15th. The commit- tees were as follows: Decoration Conndttee: Lester Winslow, Leah Hall.

Gerald White acted as tonstmaster, and c fine program was presented by both Juniors and Seniors. During this school year the Juniors have demonstrated, both in the classroom and out, that they will be worthy successors to the present Seniors. Carl' Kurl ........... 55 ............
