THE CLASS oi1942 Juniors Give Play, Banquet for Seniors The first big event of the year for the Juniors was the organization of the class. William Smith was elected pres- ident, Dale Reitenour, vice-president, Bonnie Lake, secretary-treasurer, and Mr. Starr, sponsor. Emanuel Master and Tunis Bond, runner-ups for presi- dent, Bill Thomas and Tunis Bond in the contest for vice-president, and Mary Lou Brewster, Joan Chaney and Tunis Bond running for secretary-treasurer made the election an exciting affair. The first major class project was the presentation of Lena Rivers to an enthusiastic audience on December 17. Individually, the Juniors took an active part in all extra-curricular activities- athletics, clubs and music. ln the mad rush for fame, however, the value of good grades was not for- gotten. Although he carried five sub- jects, LaVaughn Stout received four A's the first semester. Other industrious students were Rosemary Minch and Helen Wilson, receivers of three A's, and Jean Orr, Ferd Markley and Robert Hunt who each received two A's. As we go to press, the members of the class of '42 are carefully planning their activities for the last few weeks of school. Committees are being ap- pointed to plan a grand reception for the Seniors in May. As they usher at the commencement exercises, Juniors will be looking forward to next fall when they will be Seniors.
