NINTH GRADE CLASSES LEAD ENROLLMENT New Feature of Year Is Special Mixed Chorus Which Gives Students Knowledge of Glee Club Work The freshman class had an enrollment of 215 students at the beginning of the school term. Only nineteen students were dropped by the end of the first semester leaving 196 in the class at the close of the year. This is an increase of forty-three students over the enrollment of last year, and remains the largest class enrollment in the school. The class was made up of students coming from twenty-four different schools. The schools in Kansas City are: Noble Prentis, Stanley, Emerson, St. John, Junction, Franklin, Lowell, Central, Oak Grove, Northwest Junior, Clara Barton, and the John J. Pershing School. Some of the cities represented are: Crossville, Ten- nessee; Jefferson City, Missouri; and Cardin, Oklahoma. The following cities in Kansas are represented: Holliday, Leavenworth, Raven- wood, Overland Park, Madison, Banner and Sublette. This year the ninth grade class has been offered a special mixed chorus class to give the students with special talent more knowledge of the glee club work. This class had an enroll- ment of thirty-three. The ninth grade students participate in many of the activities of the school. There were fif- teen girls in the Girl Reserves. Mary Elizabeth Burch was president of the Junior Girl Reserves. Twenty boys played on the junior high basket ball team, and the freshman class had the fol- lowing six representatives in the Student Coun- cil: Dayton Jenkins, Robert Bradbury, Dorothy Jean Gould, Mary Elizabeth Burch, Virginia King, and Ruth Bruce. In the freshman English classes clubs were organized under the instruction of Miss Henri- etta Conrad. These clubs held meetings once a week during the class period. The freshman class was represented in the school band by twelve members. The ninth graders also played an outstand- ing part in school sports. Edith Anderson and Margaret Harmon won the deck tennis tourna- ment in the junior high, while the freshman volley ball team was successful in winning the junior high tournament. The junior high girls' athletic association sponsored a Hallow-e'en party, October 29, in the gymnasium. In order to receive a diploma a ninth grade student must have made fifteen units during his junior high school years. He must take English, home making (girls), physical training, and civics during his freshman year. The majority of the students intend to enter the senior high school after graduation. The students elected these officers this year president, John Broomfield; vice-president, Lois Jean Burns; secretary, Margaret Stevens; treas- urer, Treasure Lloyd; and cheer leader, J. D. Thomas. Miss Henrietta Conrad, a new member of the faculty who teaches English, history and civics was the class sponsor. Other new ninth grade teachers were Miss Alma Brown who teaches physical education and health; Miss Lucille Landis, instructor of history, English, and business arithmetic; and Mr. Arthur Jolliff who teaches beginning strings and band.
