They donated our share of football stars--Milton Brdar, James Oravetz, Steve Karas, Georlge Heskey, and many others. Three of their class were members of the fbasket- ball varsity, and these boys, Milton and George Brdar and Jimmie Moore did their share to help Young- wood win the 1944 championship. The team's efficient manager, Bob Morgan, is also an esteemed me-mlber of this class. Will we ever forget Richard Steiner and Grace Overholt as the vparson and his wife in the highly successful Sophomore assembly? And remember Betty Haley as the 'iblushing bride and Frances Cordial as the village beauty. The m-embers of the Sophomore class shofw a fine spirit of co-operation, Many of them are active mem- bers of the High School Band, Glee Cluxb, Tygping Club and Home-Ec Clwb.
