Carlton Efird Josephine Eureste Bill Fielder Mary Flores realized that there were other grades, too. Many of the eighth graders became our good friends. Although we thought we were very important, we really looked up to the High School students. This year our class proudly boasted two cheerleaders, two majorettes, and twelve football players. We were sure that L.J.H.S. had never had a Junior Band, Pepsquad, and Midget football team as great as ours. We changed classes and had home rooms. It was also a time of social activity in which our square dance club took the lead. We square danced every Saturday night, and afterward danced to hit tunes such as uBecause of Youn and NS1nH. Although we hated to see the other class leave without us, we were proud to take our places as eighth graders. This year Mr. Bicknell Joined us as Junior High principal and science teacher. We had a Junior High Student Council and Chorus this year. We were coming up in the world as our class had three cheerleaders, three majorettes, and sixteen football players. We also had many active members in the Junior High Band and Pepsquad. An important event this year was learning to drive. This was a year for parties, and we were especially proud of the going-away party the seventh grade gave us at the end of school. Although we enjoyed Junior High, we were looking forward to becoming a part of high school.

FUN r 'W nmiro Carrizales loden Caruthers K Patsy Chesser This year much time was spent studying geography in Miss Grigsby's and Miss Bess Randel's rooms. We entered the fifth grade just a little bit afraid of Miss Bessie Smith, but she soon captured a place close to our hearts. How important it was to win a gold star in spelling every Friday! This year many of the girls in our grade dressed as galardias for the May Fete. We had a lot of fun, although we considered ourselves too old for such things. Miss Laas also led us through this eventful year. In the sixth grade our class was large enough to divide into three rooms. Mrs. Naomi Lipscomb, Mr. Hastings, and Mrs. Harris were our capable teachers. Much of our school time was spent study- ing Europe. Girl friend and boy friend lists were all the rage. We were really grown up now. We even fell in love, although it seldom lasted more than two weeks at a time! Mr. Hastings' kangaroo courts became famous, too. We were just a little bit jealous of Junior High, but, determined not to be outdone, we had our own football team! That year passed quickly, and then we were actually in Junior High! will we ever forget all the fun and friend- ships of these two years? We were really important now!

After the first two weeks of this, we felt that we really deserved our title of Freshmen. will we ever forget all the fun of our first year in high school! Now we could attend the victory dances and all high school activities. Most of our class joined several organization, and we were especially proud to be members of the Maroon Jackets, Band, and Football team. We elected our first set of Officers and began making money for the Senior trip in we were men, we As we were the distant future. Although a little in awe of the upperclass- began to make a name for ourselves. we entered our Sophomore year, well set in the pattern of high school life. Determined to make money, we sponsored a Sadie Hawkins Sock Hop which was a big success. We still aren't sure what happened to the millions of coat hangers we collected, but we had fun anyway. Money was made on booths at the Halloween Carnival, and bake sales were not uncommon this year. This was a time of fun with all the pep-rallies, football games, bus trips, and special events. Our class entered into all major events in high school, and also boasted quite a few honors. Lillian Kanemeier wayne Kieke Billy Hermon Rob Hewlett Alice Homano Gail Livengood
