JUNIOR CLASS President ...... Marshall Veach Vice-President Wesley Gwyn Secretary Hazel Whittinchill Treasurer Jack Hughes The juniors started off on the right foot this year when they presented at the Bonfire Rally a clever little play entitled, A Shakespearean Hash.” No one who saw saw the play could ever forget the villain, Gilbedt Nutter, or the Villainess, Thelma Beck. As Juliet , Isabel Paxton was exquisite; and could there ever have been a greater “Julius Caesar than Fred Miller? “Macbeth” would have lived a much longer life had his wife, Meda Green, taken the care of him that she did of her second hus- band, Shylock, Arthur Bush, who was a faithful and devoted husband. In fact he thought nothing of climbing up onto a chair that his wife might have the comfort of weeping on his broad and mighty shoulder. Yes, Hash, always is a good starter. The juniors are the championship ticket sellers of the school. We established this record when freshmen; but we felt that some, no doubt, believed it to be a mere accident, so we took first place in the Student Body drive last year. Consequently when Lemonville rolled around this year, we had a reputation to maintain. How we sold tickets! In fact, we sold so many that they gave up counting them. The junior boys did excellent work in basketball; one junior, Robert Bailey, mak- ing the championship Heavyweight team. The girls, not willing that the boys should carry off all the honors, won inter- class hockey. It was also a junior girl, Mildred Andrews, who won the girls’ Novice Tennis Tournament. In the meantime we were not standing still in our studies as shown by the fact that the juniors won the typing contest between the juniors and seniors. Among other things we have enjoyed many good times together. The junior party given by three juniors’ mothers is especially well remembered, and we expect to have another wonderful time. Can you guess when? Juanita Pico Eighteen
