1928 JUNIOR HIGH BROADCASTER History of Class of 1928 Lewistown Junior High School 'S gig 'jo N THE FALL OF 1926 the class of twenty-eight began its Junior ff! if High School career with an enrollment of one hundred and ninety Q2 members. For a while we walked softly as became us as new ' ' 'A members in the first organized Junior High School in Lewistown. Among the activities of our eighth grade year were the Eighth Grade Dramatic Club and the Eighth Grade Gir1's Glee Club, who contributed many numbers to our assembly programs. The Junior High School,Operetta Yanki San was given December 9. About one hundred and fifty pupils took part in the play and the choruses and costumes were many and beautiful. I During the second semester the Eighth Grade had the great social event of their first year in Junior High School. This was the Eighth Grade party. The first part of the program for the evening was a play presented by the Dramatic Club in the auditorium, the latter part of the evening was spent in the gym, where the Eighth Graders and a number of the faculty revived their youth in Farmer in the Dell and similar games. The refreshments were elegant, especially the lollypops. The remainder of the term was spent in hard work and when school closed, we Eighth Graders were ready to enjoy our hard-earned vacation. The fall of 1927 brought usback to school two hundred and twenty-five strong, our numbers swelled to this figure by our good citizens and friends from Ferguson Valley, Decatur, Granville, Alfarata, and Viscose Hill. After the class was settled to work, a meeting was held to elect capable officers. Those favored by the election were: President ....................................................................... ................. .

Margeurite Zong and these officers have proven themselves worthy of these positions. Student Council was organized by choosing members of each home room as representatives. ' Upon the advice of the faculty, sectional meetings were held every other Thursday at which time lessons of guidance were given. The only class social event during the term was a Masquerade party held in the High School gym on the 27th of October. The gym was de- lightfully decorated with the class colors, green and white and Hal1owe'en colors, orange and black. Prizes were awarded to the best dressed girl and boy. The party was a complete success and all the pupils returned home with a satisfied feeling., s S.
