Early in the first book, in the scene where Madame Hooch gives them
flying lessons, I believe it states that there were 20 brooms, and
everyone got one. Gryffindor and Slytherin first years had this class
together. So I figure there are only 20 students total in these 2
classes combined. Harry would almost have to know the names of all
the Slytherins in his year. If he doesn't, he should make a point of
learning them, since so many of his mortal enemies are from that
house. It wouldn't be that hard.
Olaf, glad and big
