BOTTOM ROW Nicolaysen, Levin, Call- er: George, Luis, Schut, JUNIORS The slick chicks and Van lohnsons of Ripon High School tnamely, the Iuniorsl started the year off by electing as class officers for the first semester: president, Howard Saabyeg vice-president, Robert Grunskyp secretary-treasurer, Eleanor Anderson, Fred Callsen and Sheldon Nicolaysen were elected to rep- resent our class in Congress. Our first party of the year was held in November. The auditorium was filled with Iuniors who seemed to have quite a gay time. Elections for the second semester officers were held and the following officers were elected: president, Eleanor Andersony vice-president, Margaret Slater, secretary-treasurer, Dorothy Nelson. We also discovered that a sergeant-at arms was an absolute necessity so Dorothy Lanting was chosen for this position and had the able assistance of our adviser, Mr. DeSelle. May 3 was the date for the luniors to play host to the Seniors in what we con- sidered one of the best Iunior-Senior Proms ever held. The theme was that of an old-fashioned garden and the auditorium was appropriately decorated. Alto- gether, it was a very memorable event and one that will be remembered tor years to come. We are establishing a class history which we hope will compare with the best. Both in the classroom and in extracurricular activities, luniors are to be found among the leaders. During the first semester this year, eight of the eleven members of C.S.F. were Iuniors, and the second semester showed seven out cf eighteen to be luniors. We contributed our full share to football, basketball, and drama. Class activities are noted for the efficiency of their management. Teamwork would seem to be the keynote that marks our every act. Mrs. Edith Zelaya was our new adviser this year. l .Q 1 tadviserl. Whitmore.

l i The big day-Senior Ditch Dayl ln true traditional style we Went to the snow line. And still according to tradition, we spent more time on our -er, I mean, on the ground than we did on our feet. There were the usual spills, bumps, and snow fights. Fortunately, we avoided some of the usual accidents of a more serious nature. A little tire trouble helped keep things normal. This Was, for us, one of the major events of the year, and will be pleasantly remembered tor years to come.

SOPI-IOMORES The first semester ofiicers oi the Sophomore Class were: president, Buddy Pichettog vice-president, Ardell Heaton, secretary-treasurer, Bob Nelson: con- gress representatives, lim Farschon and Norma Hoff. A very efficient committee composed of lim Parschon as chairman, Ardell Heaton, and Melvin Kingsley, was appointed to initiate the Freshmen. The main initiation was held in iront oi the student body. But all day, oddly enough, Freshmen were seen bowing in front oi the Sophomores and repeating, Allah be praised to the Sophomore Class. ln lanuary several of the Sophomores were seen limping to and from classes. The reason was the Sophomore Roller Skating Party. lt was quite a success, with refreshments at the school afterwards. But ohl! the next day! The Sophomores who were given the honor oi being officers for the second semester were: president, lacaueline Kincaid: vice-president, Elizabeth Ter- heydeng secretary-treasurer, Peggy Gibbonsg and, since Congressman Norma Hoii had moved, Marcella Mulholland was elected to take her place. Being in our second year at high school we are becoming more confident in ourselves and are participating in many school activities. Also, through the Sophomore Representatives in Congress, the class is taking an active part in the school government. Next year when we are big, big Iuniors, the Iunior-Senior Prom will be up to us. For this reason we are planning a money-raising activity. As yet the type oi activity has not been decided upon. We wish to thank our advisers, Mrs. White, Mr. Poletti, and Mr. Iacobsen, tor their help and patience with us in the past year, and we will try to be a credit to them in the future. ' ers, McKenzie.
