JUNIOR HISTORY 1 In 1930, fifty-six shinging-faced l oys and girls darkened the threshold to become first graders under Miss Barnum’s patient instruction. Working energetically and enjoying ourselves most of the time, we continue to grow. Presto! Chango! We were proud but bewildered seventh graders. The upper floor held new problems, new experiences and new teachers in store for us. Yes, we tried to adjust ourselves to our new routine and tried hard to please our new teachers. In a sudden hound, we jumped from eighth graders to freshmen—high school at last! As freshmen we began to make our first real impressions on our teachers and in school life. Our class, even as freshmen, made great strides in athletics. We have lettermen in basketball, football, baseball and track. We were intra-class champions in both boys’ and girls’ basketball in our sophomore year. Not to be outdone by the boys, several girls entered basketball and track. To back up our sportsmen and sportswomen, we have a class member who is a cheerleader. We not only contribute to sports, but we have done equally well in other fields. Music finds a great many of our class members making their contribution, for we are represented in band, orchestra, girls’ and boys’ glee, mixed chorus, octette, male quartette and operettas. Oh, yes, we also have members in several school clubs; namely, Hi-Y, G. R., F. H. A., F. F. A., Varsity Club and others—not just meml ers, but officers! Besides these other feats, we are dramatically inclined. Four operettas, two F. H. A. plays and two G. R. - Hi-Y plays would not have been what they were without our cooperation. Other than these, we presented our Junior Class play, “Professor! How Could You!” This year we are hosts and hostesses at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. Next year we will he seniors! What better, all-round group would you want for next year’s senior class?
