ARLY ORGANIZATION of the class of '41 gave ample opportunity for numerous social events due to the cooperation of the entire junior class. The deans, having been elected for three years, are Miss Carol Hen- derson and Mr. Iohn Kaufman. Officers elected were: Doris Blough, presi- dent, Thelma Iones, vice president: Dorothy Smith, secretaryp Ann Ewanic, treasurer. The first social event of the year planned by the junior class was a sport hop in honor of our football team. The gymnasium was decorated to represent a football field. The floor was marked with yard lines and the walls were decorated with miniature forms of football players. Regardless of the worry caused by the late arrival of the music, the dance proved to be a success. Having been encouraged by the previous event, the junior class sponsored a roller skating party at the Westmont Grove Skating Rink. This was followed by the production of the three-act comedy, Pickles Be- comes a Lady, under the direction of Miss Verda Long and Miss Ruth Ioseph. The characters were as follows: Wil- liam lntihar, Burleighg Iennie Pan- asci, Pickles, Helen Trevorrow, Hat- tiep Dorothy Smith, Magg Constance Carosello, Pee Weep Iosephine Mas- trocola, Flog Eleanor Reitz, Miss Diblep Gertie Walker, Lillian Hallerf' Doris Blough, Helen Martini' Lela Mae Blough, Myra Parsonsf' Frank Weav- er, Lieutenant Tony Hamiltonf' Glenn Kaufman, Sergent Reed, Bill Virgin, Dukeg Iohn Richko, Pete. The story is centered around a tomboy who JUNIOR CLASS becomes entangled in some trouble caused by the school politician, who is adept at making trouble. As the story progresses Pickles believes herself to be in love with Tony Hamilton, a lieu- tenant in the air corps, having had to make a forced landing at the school. He is carrying a special document for the government which two villains are trying to secure. Tony's attention is cen- tered on the charming person of Helen Martin, a young teacher. After the vil- lains have finally been captured and the document placed safely in the hands of Tony Hamilton, the play final- ly reaches the climax and Pickles Becomes a Lady. Following the junior play, a party was held for the cast at Alwine's Priva- Dyne. Games, dancing, and eating were the main features of the evening. During the year, the class sold wax paper to help raise money for the re- ception. The class cooperated with enthusiasm. Many members of the junior class are outstanding in almost every school activity. The class is well represented in basketball, football, and track. Eddie Maslanka a prominent junior, was voted the outstanding player in the 14th annual St. Francis College tournament in basketball. The high light of the year was the Iunior-Senior Prom held on May 24th. The music was furnished by Bob Waters and His Rain-Drops. The modern ef- fect gave it a unique touch of a classy ballroom. During the course of the evening, dancing, games, and re- freshments were the main features. The reception was carried out successfully, wishing the seniors a happy landing.
