JUNIORS THE Juniors trail (but not far behind) the Seniors. It will be up to them and their leaders to take over the helm from now until this time next year. Glancing over their accomplishments and qualifications we have no fear that they will not be able to guide the school very successfully. The Class advisers for the past year have been Miss Hornbeck. Miss Loutzenhiser and Miss Sellers. Fred Richmond, Audrey Edgecombe, Paul Lewis, and Art Blanding are officers of the class. Starting back in their wide eyed days as freshmen we find that their assembly was very much enjoyed by the school. They also participated in the C. C. C., but to save them embarrassment we will skip their financial success. At the banquet they won first prize for table decorations, using Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs -—which Walt Disney later copied! The class voted Marjorie Edsall the most popular girl and Little Art Christensen the most popular boy and boy athlete. As Sophs they again took first honors for decorations at the banquet. This time Dick Ranney was outstanding boy and Phyllis Bowerman outstanding girl. This year, they had a movie, vaudeville, and an ice-cream bar at the carnival. Their outstanding personalities (should say characters) are many. Toby Ingraham, Dick Ranney. Art Christensen, and Jim Hahnenberg gave the school their all on the gridiron. Fred Richmond. Alice Hansen, and Ferris Hough were chosen to put in their say so in council affairs. Not trusting entirely to these, however, some of the assistant aldermen vociferously gave opinions and advice at meetings—and, by all means debating shouldn't be left out. Belshaw, Highfield, and Shining star Ranney made up half of the squad. Barb Hall decided not to hide her light under a bushel and won the oratorical contest, Audrey Edgecombe was the vice-president of the Girl's League and Sylvia Nielsen was the class representative. The basketball team, F. F. A.. Band, Orchestra, and Glee Clubs would all be crippled without the support of talented Juniors, and the people who make the class tick with such merriment. The Seniors wish it to be known that they are not responsible for the explosion from the typing room about 4:45 to 5:15. Instead the finger of guilt points most notably to Belshaw, Baldwin and Hall, though they're really not as bad as the impression they give at that hour!! This page sponsored by First State Bank. 22

SOPHOMORES THE Sophs elected the following officers at the beginning of the year: Lucas Jensen, president; Mary Charlotte Vining, vice-president; Beatrice Johnson, secretary; Virginia Curtis, treasurer. At the C. C. C. during their freshman year they took in the largest profit of all the organizations and were rewarded with the Council's prize. This year they again presented their very successful melerdramer, and also had a shooting gallery. Charlie and Joe Cooper played on the varsity basketball and baseball teams while Bill Arntz won a letter in football. Curt Bradley, Gordon Belshaw. and Joe and Charlie (those Coopers again!) were outstanding in tennis. Jack Filgas and Dick Russell won letters in golf and track respectively. But not in sports alone were they active! Do you remember their peppy group at every school party?—also, the blow'' to one of the illustrious class members when it was learned that Junior High was to be excluded from high school parties? In speech work the class is especially outstanding. Bunny Hamper and Bob Hansen were on the varsity debating team; all three extempore speakers were Sophomores: and Beatrice Johnson won the declamation contest. The All-School Play had Joe Cooper (ah! the crook!), his accomplice. Duane Tower, and Mary Charlotte Vining among the cast. Representing the class on the Council were Lucas Jensen, Edna Mae Cordes. and Mary Wakefield. There is one Sophomore ''clique which seems to be making its mark in the world by the noise it is capable of creating—to be more specific, the Coopers.'' Goosie. Doc. Filgas. Curt, Murphy. Hansen and Loding believe the louder the merrier—and it seems true, too! The boys are not alone in this—oh. no!! Mary Charlotte. Betty Rose. Bunny, Jackie, and several others can't be stopped from tittering about that formal dance last Friday, etc., in spite of that threat of long assignments or a test! These girls are taking their first formal affairs in stride and do they love it! Also, we must mention Mary Charlotte, very active in the League (just ask Bunny about the card tables she’s collected, or Betty Rose about the crepe paper she's hung!) To hold such a gang in tow the administration has picked on none other than Mr. Ferris. Mr. Houck, and Miss Shaw, and we've heard no complaints of a lack of pep from any of them.
