Katherine Brennan President Mary Jane Sullivan Vice-President Gloria Barry Secretary Mary Lyon Treasurer THE SOPHOMORE CLASS From the opening of Mundelein College in September, 1930, the charter class has been keenly aware of the honor and responsibility resting upon them as the first and only group who can identify their freshman year with that of their cherished college. The spirit of initiative and loyalty which had characterized the class from the very beginning has become even more pronounced since the day which marked their appearance as sophomores. They were old students now, experienced in the ways of college life, and prepared to take a prominent part in school affairs. The Hallowe'en party, held on October 28, was an opening triumph for the sophomores, three of their number, Penelope Haloulos, Lenora Stahr, and Pauline Duzeski, receiving the prizes awarded for the most characteristic, the prettiest, and the funniest costumes. On November 6, at the Drake Hotel, was held that all-important event, the Sophomore Cotillion, which marked the peak of their social achievements. The success of the occasion was due in large part to the class officers and the Cotillion Committee: Harriet St. Clair, Bertille McEvoy, Harriet Steigelman, and Alary Catherine Hayes. More serious activities also claimed the attention of the class. Prominent staff positions on the Skyscraper were held by enterprizing sophomores: Alargaret Roche was editor; Bertille McEvoy, news editor; Justine Feely, Skyline and feature editor; and Evelyn Lincoln, athletic editor; while numerous sophomores were reporters. The class was also well represented in the Clepsydra, of which Emer Phibbs was music editor, in Quest, and in the Tower, on whose staff Lucille Turk served, and to which sophomores contributed generously.

THE SOPHOMORE CLASS The Sodality numbers among its most ardent champions its sophomore leaders, Mary Jane Sullivan, Genevieve Dooner, Alary Catherine Schmelzer, Margaret Scannell, Catherine Alanske, Katherine Brennan, and Alargaret Hoyne. Katherine Brennan and Alary Jane Sullivan, who, as freshmen, won laurels for Mundelein, continued as sophomores to uphold her honor in forensics. Nor were athletic activities ignored. Whatever the season for basketball, soccer, volleyball, or tennis sophomores were always to be found engaged in spirited games. The sophomore soccer team defeated the freshmen for the college championship, and, although they were somewhat less successful in basketball, their record was admirable both for skillful play and true sportsmanship. Then there was the pool to lure the goodly number of Terrapins, and Friday classes in the park for others who preferred riding. A spirit of service, loyalty, and good will to the college and to fellow students is fostered by participation in the activities of all clubs, and by leadership in many. As class officers the sophomores chose Katherine Brennan, president; Alary Jane Sullivan, vice-president; Gloria Barry, secretary; and Mary Lyon, treasurer. To the leadership of this competent group is due no small part of the class' successful career as sophomores. These first two years have gone all too swiftly, but we look forward eagerly to the two years of intellectual endeavor, loyal friendships, and social activities that lie before us. 55 m W m hJM Mm t3'.E-V
