CASS 08.25 The present Junior class entered high school three years ago with almost one hundred students. It was the largest class that had ever come into the Madera Union High School and no doubt, the hest. After we had been given sufficient time to settle down and become used to our new quarters, we were nobly entertained by our upper classmen with an elaborate Freshmen Reception. Every Freshman came that night with shaky knees. fearing some pretty rough treat- ment. However, we all managed to get out alive, although we had to go through an operation of some kind which was by no means a healthy ceremony. This step seemed to take away some of our greenness (which we were convicted of having). We managed to live through the rest of the year under the harsh treatment of those who were so much above us and could hardly realize when we were honored with the name “Sophies.”’ Although we felt that we had taken a big step from “Freshies” to “Sophies” there still seemed to be many who were far above us. We kept our place well in our second year and surprised them all when we took the inter-class track championship. We showed them that we were well able to take up the duties of the Juniors when our time came. Our Junior year in high school has so far been one of great success. We have shown this by the many things which we have accomplished and the biggest of these is the Junior play which was given February Sth, by the class. “Daddy Long Legs” was a success from every stand- point, especially from that of the finances, since almost $200 was cleared. When the Seniors held their annual “Sneak Day” we handled their re- mains in a most original and noble manner. The Junior picnic, held Saturday, March 22nd, was a day of fun and lots of it. No doubt there is a fine Senior class this year, but the present Junior class can ably take up the work which they will leave for us when their high school days are over. eee DONO MEY EGINGy 225 ae
