Marjorie Tyler, Wfilliam Thorpe, and Virginia Rainwater have since enrolled. In dramatics and music we find many juniors distinguishing themselves. Bob Kepner and Marjory Hetland had major roles in the Mikado, and Elsie Dibble was an excellent accompanist for them. Helen Barnett, Bob Kepner, Mary Jean Koritz, and Phil May all had leads in the Dramatics Club play, Relatives by Affection. John Roe entered the speech contest in extemporaneous speaking. This year, as always, our class has provided more than its share of athletes. On the football field, We saw Ralph Dailey, Valcre Degryse, Claude Haselton, Bob Kepner, Phil May, Thor Moluf, Henry Rittmeyer, John Roe, Virgil Stevenson, and Harry Troop. Valere Degryse, Ronald Haas, Claude Haselton, Bob Kepner, Phil May, and John Roe all played good basketball. Jack Vierke acted as manager for both teamsg Lewis Boelkes was track manager. Thor Moluf was a go-getter in the Tarler Staff magazine drive and out-ranked by far all the other salesmen in the student body. Gut of the junior class Mary Jean Koritz, Ruth Nesheirn, Harry Troop, and Virginia Yetter were elected to the National Honor Society. A What kind of a prom to have was our chief worry this spring. We Hnally decided upon a Star Dust theme and put on a successful prom. Of course, we worked hard, but that's the fun of being a junior. Twenty-four

Sponsor With Mr. Gieske as our class sponsor, our Sophomore band, ninety-two strong, began a second year in R. T. H. S. Three of our number have been especially active in various ways. Patsy Hayes, Marie Eckhardt, and Billy Askvig were prominent in dramatics and played roles in the Jester's big play. In the sub-district state speech contests, Patsy and Marie scored seconds and thirds in dramatic and humorous reading and in oratory, a rating which entitled them to go on to the district meet. Patsy, Marie, and Bill, by leading yells, helped to pep up the cheering section at our games. Besides Billy, also a baton rwirler, the three maiorettes, Mildred Hartman, and the Hanson twins, belong to our class. One of our musicians, Tommy Koehler, sang in the boys' quartette. Andy Binz, Bill Stauffer, Francis Pogue, and Bob Davis were our active athletes. Our biggest social event of the year was a party at which the freshmen were our guests. We decorated the gym with autumn colors and leering pumpkins in keeping with the Hallowe'en spirit and served pumpkin pie and cider. The evening was spent playing games and dancing. T11'r'uly-six
