FRESHMEN THIS class of 1950 began its career in high school with a bang! Under the leadership of Max Baldizan, class presidentg Donna Nesmith, vice presidentg Bob Wolfe, secretary-treasurerg Ida Malleis and Manley Christensen, sponsors, the class has given a spring dance and supported their basketball team in the Y. M. C. A. tourney in Denver. The Freshman Basketball Team, coached by Norman Hillyer, won sixteen con- secutive games this year. The team won their first game in the tourney but lost the second. Their cheerleaders are Helen Basta, La Verna Dumler, Shirley Gray, and Nancy Troxell. An Orientation Class for freshmen was instituted this year with the class of 1950 as charter members. These future grads have been quite active in speech work, as Peggy Metzger, Joan Neeley, Carol Skow, Wendell Sack, and Rudolph Johnson have participated in several N. F. L. meets. Rudolph Johnson excelled in the English department last fall by writing a winning essay on Wings For A Nickel, in the air mail contest and received a plane ride. This class of 1950 is standing on the lower rung of the high school ladder, but before they reach the top they will accomplish much for their class and for the better- ment of the school.

IUNKDR I-HGH THE seventh and eighth grades, very active groups this year, initiated a new court system. Judges for the first and second semester respectively were Ray Richards and Norman Armstrong. The bailiff was Bruce Reid, and Nancy Nelson was court clerk. The jury is elected to serve six months. A point system was established, and those receiving 45 points at the end of the year will be granted an award. Many students were given the honor L's for their scholarship. For the first time in many years, the seventh grade won the big event of the year, the basketball game between the two grades. This gave the cheerleaders of both grades a chance to perform. Joan Lenhart, Carol Dean, Dave Patterson, and Richard Houck cheered for the eighth, and Betty Morrison, Sally Riney, Arlowyn Alexander, and Georgella Hayes led the seventh grade cheers. The Junior High, student body officers were: President, Shirley McDonald, Vice President, Margot Porterg Secretary-Treasurer, Peggy McDonald. Qsszfagliafiesirmairnabamaamasswssxiz
