Junior Class I list or y Dorothy tones, 16 On September the second, nineteen hundred twelve, seventy eager Freshmen assembled in the class rooms of Jackson High School. Of course at first, Freshmen life was very awkward to us. The upper classmen looked down upon us and laughed at our ways. But, we the class of ’16, with the help of the faculty, then began directing our efforts to become the most noted and loyal class that would ever graduate from Jackson High School. Miss Houser and Miss Jones were interested in our welfare. They arranged for a program at the new High School building to be given by the two divisions of the Freshmen. After the program, games were played and refreshments served. One day we were surprised to find that we had become of sufficient importance to have our pictures taken. Our class was called together and sent to the steps of the building. And later we were greatly pleased to have this picture in the Osky Wow. At the close of school we had a picnic at Buzzards’ Rocks, and parted wishing each a happy vacation. The next year when we as embled, we were no longer timid Freshmen but wise Sophomores. Our class took a great inteiest in athletics, and we are proud to say that the majority of base ball and foot ball players were from this class. Our class base ball team was hard to surpass. In the first inter-class game we defeated the class of '15 with a score of 11—7. Our Sophomore year passed quickly away and we are Juniors. We had thought for the past two years that to be Juniors was almost beyond our grasp. We now can stand and look back over almost three years of struggle, and forward to our last glorious year. This year, we immediately organized our class and elected Ivan James, President, Louise Shriver, Vice President, Ernestine Hunter, Secretary, Byrd Stout, Treasurer. In February Ivan James left school and entered Wellston High School and we elected Troy Scurlock as his successor. We were granted permission to have a class play, and were coached by Miss Warkins and Miss Johnson. The play was a very interesting comedy entitled “The End of the Rainbow.” The Junior-Senior Reception was held at the Cambrian Hotel April the thirtieth, and was a grand success. Our Junior year will be long remembered and treasured by its members. Now farewell to all, until we meet again in the Osky Wow of’16. not as Juniors but as dignified Seniors of sweet sixteen.
