'towing Qaini Gay and vivacious, Growing Pains was the comedy presented by the junior class on May seventh and eighth. The story dealt with the dilemma of the Mclntyre family. Desperately, but lovingly, the gentle mother and the abstracted professor endeavored to stem the tide of adolescence in which their boy and girl were tossed, helping to stem the turbulent course with advice from a distance but which the ego-centric two managed to spurn definitely, Along with the Uneighborhood kids the spirited ones managed to ache and suffer as only the young growing can. From a first formal to a A' 'titanic' love affair the family wallowed and waded in a muddled mire of humorous situations, with laughter piled upon laughter. A vague but definite undercurrent of genuine pathos that gave a true insight into the woes and joys so prevelant and all-important to the younger generation prevailed throughout the play.

U55 cyouia of fffe ijfaiffing .figgf Thrills and chills were only :J few of the emotions felt by the audience while attending the senior class play, The House of the Flashing Light, which was presented to capacity crowds on February sixth and seventh. The play, three acts of comedy and suspense, was directed by Miss Perry, with Edna Eddy as student director, Miss Buchanan as business adviser, Virgil Williams as stage manager, Vernon Lunsford, business manager, and Leona Brant, property manager. The cast consisted of eleven members, six girls and five boys. The part of the black figure was portrayed by Freda Theis, The setting was a mysterious old house on the Pacific Coast. Period fur- niture and furnishings of the early eighteen-nineties was the background. It was a thrilling mystery with its secret compartments, the 'fdevil's eye shining red in the dark, the flashing light, and the sinister dark clothed figure.

Since entering College View High School as freshmen in 1934 the present junior class members have been prominent in extra-cur- ricular activities in which they have shown their willingness to co- operate and use their talents. Dur- ing their freshman year, they were under the sponsorship of Miss Scott, and their class oH'lcers were james Stransky, president: Vera Sevier, vice-president: and Elma Reichenberg, secretary. Sopho- more sponsor was Miss Buchanan, ,JULIUS HUMANN Twenty-lwo O9 of Events the otlicers being Iune Whalen, president, Pauline Watkins, vice- president: and Winona Francke, secretary. For their junior year, the class selected as their oiiicers Ben Fleet, president: Edna Doug- las, vice-president: and Winona Francke, secretary. Because so many of the junior boys were outstanding in the dif- ferent athletic teams, it was fitting that two of our three cheerleaders for '36-'37, Dorothy Frederick and Betty Barney, should be junior girls. This year the junior class boasts of two members on the Honor Society. They are Betty Barney and Elma Reichenberg. Bet- ty was selected during the first se- mester, while Elma was chosen just recently. Four juniors, Vera Sevier, Eva Pedersen, Dale Nan- nen. and Iimmy Vorhies, represent- ed our class on the Student Coun- cil. Vera held the position of vice- president, and Eva was secretary. x '- Q A Ben Fleet Edna Douglas Winoxsa Francke Darlene Courly The second semester editors for the school paper, the P 5 G, were Betty Knowles and Ben Fleet, jun- iors, while other class members held prominent places on the staff. In regard to clubs, nearly all of the junior girls are 'Girl Reserves. junior girls on the cabinet were Betty Belle Barney, Edna Douglas, Vera Sevier, Winona Francke, Iune Whalen, and Pauline Wat- kins. Active ju.nior boys on the Hi- Y cabinet were Ben Fleet, Warren johnson, and Lawrence Martin. june Whalen, president of G.A.A., along with Betty Barney, were junior girls who earned letters. Having already taken promin- ent positions in many school ac- tivities, we feel certain that our senior year will be the ciimax of cur school career. We all hope that our sponsors next year will be as active and responsible as Mr. Humann has been this year.
