History of the Sophomore Class School in September, 1928 as Freshmen, and the President of the United States couldn’t have felt any bigger than we did. After passing through the halls a few times, and facing some of the upper-classmen, we were made to feel very small. The particular upper-classman that floored my ambition was Raymond Hunter. He stood six feet ten inches in his stock- ing feet, or at least that is the way he looked to me. He flung me into the Freshman room, and forthwith came thirty-five other boys to stay there the rest of the year. The girls landed in Miss Bryant’s room, clear across the hall from us. We soon got into the routine of the school program, and learned very shortly that the life in the High School would be very much as we ourselves made it. After a few days when we would be standing in the hall, an ugly Sophomore would approach and herd us into the basement. It is not necessary to put down in history what took’ place. Suffice to say, we shed our first coat of green and came out wiser and better Freshmen. At the mid-term examinations, we all made grades we were not ashamed of. After this, we presented a play “Which One Won.” Several weeks later, we held our Declamation Contest, in which Marie Kibler won the Girls’ first prize, and Vernon Kibler won fi rst prize for the boys. On September 16, we came back as Sophomores. There were about forty pupils in the class, and it is believed the same forty will carry on in the next two years of High School. eV kK.

History of the Freshman Class AuHEN us Freshman kids pranced into the Ye} High School building last September, 7 everything was strangely different from the Grade School we had just been thrown The teachers were very awe-inspiring until we be- came better acquainted with them and found that they are regular fellows. As soon as the daily grind began, we started our Society. When time came for our annual play, we decided on ‘‘Mrs. Briggs of the Poultry Yard” and after careful thought, Mrs. Davies, our coach, chose the following cast: Mrs. Briggs, Marguerite Childress ; Jimmie Briggs, Harold Aldhizer; Ralph Briggs, Clem- mer Coyner; Virginia Lee, Mary Ann Dunlap; Daisy Henkel; Mr. Lee, Montague Scott ; Alviry, Mehitabell, and Mellisy, Katherine McCrary, Lorraine Yancey, and Hazel Coyner. Music was provided between the acts by Eleanor Frankhouser, who sawed away on her fiddle, and Josephine Barnette, who marched up and down the keys of the piano. Profits amounted to about $75. We have subscribed to Current Literature and a new equipment cabinet will be made for the Science classes, out of the play proceeds. ay 45) ro)
