Sophomore Class News.
Tuesday afternoon you could
hear everyone saying “Look at
my picture.” That’s right. Last
Tuesday we got our pictures,
after waiting for nearly three
weeks.
Last Tuesday the Junior Class
gave their assembly. I’m sure
everyone enjoyed it.
We want to congratulate the
Seniors for giving such a nice
Senior play Friday night.
We surely will be glad when
these exams are over.
See you next week.
Junior Class News.
All of the Juniors wish to
congratulate the Seniors on
having a very nice Senior play
and I am sure all of the people
who saw the play Friday night,
April 1, will agree.
The Junior Class put on their
assembly last week Tuesday
and now that it is over we feel
that we are another step nearer
1 being Seniors. This week we are
having ,our six-week tests and
that leaves only six more weeks
of this good old school year!
Hope next year will prove to be
as happy a school ye&r as this
one is.
The boys are all practicing
high jump, broad jump, and
track and from where the girls
are supposed to be playing base-
ball, it certainly does look like
the Junior boys are doing all the
good. Floyd Boedeker really
does know his stuff when it
comes to high jumping and
broad jumping. Kaiser is now
known as our “tennis champ”
since he won a very hard ten-
nis game over Hallettsville.
Several of the Junior boys who
are running track are .trying
their best to beat Chandler, .and
maybe with a little more prac-
tice they will be able to do so.
