'U'Q-'5llm- 'I t ' ll 8. erm , A ffm A , 9 9' titer f 11 1W ' Junior Class Under the guidance of the Junior class advisors, Miss ll'inchell and Miss Jolly- inan. the Junior class has this year shown good school spirit in all its undertakings. ln commenioration of Charles Dickens' revivals in the theaters of New York and elsewhere members of the Junior class presented to the Student Body o11 lNlarch 23 some interesting scenes from Pickwick Papers. Hard Times and David Copper- Hcldf, three of Dickens' best known novels. Mr. Macawber. in the person of Cecil George. introduced the various characters in the different scenes. He also presented to the students his wife, Mrs. Macawber CJoan McGeogheganj, who very emphati- cally and repeatedly assured everyone that she would never leave her dear husband- no, never! This program was one of the best ot' the year, and many of the students who had ncvcr before found Charles Dickens interesting realized for the first time how very much alive his characters are. The annual Junior dance. a farewell to thc Seniors. was given on the eve of May 18. in thc gymnasium of our school. The decorations were in keeping with May. Carlands of flowers draped the pillars which were wound with greens. The walls were banked with ferns and a vast assortment of tlowers. A large May basket in the back of the room contained space for the orchestra. Late in the evening punch was served by members of the Junior class. A little closer feeling of comradeship seemed to pervade the atmosphere. due to the fact that it was the last dance of the school year-the last one at which the Seniors and lower classmen would all be together. Another program was given by thc class on June 20. lt took the form of a fare- well to the Senior class of '28. Members of the Junior class have generously co-ntributed their talent to school clraniatics. Of the twenty girls who received G. P. A. L. emblems, ten of them were Juniors. The class boasts of eighty-six members. :Qtr Yi., PAGE Z7

Jimmy Hamilton, a member of this freshman class, was elected student body yell leader. an honor seldom accorded a freshman. The next year. as sophomores, the same class continued to be active in school affairs. There were then 122 students in the class. They elected their oflicers, and, with the able assistance of Miss lViltz and Miss Stichter, class advisors, the sopho- mores started the new year.' On December I6 they presented a jolly Christmas entertainment to the student body. The girls sang appropriate songs, and il novelty Christmas-stocking act fur- nished lively amusement. After the program. Santa Clans and his assistants dis- tributed popcorn to the eager audience. After Christmas vacation, the sophomores. with eleven new members in tlltill' class, went about preparations for their annual party. The gym was decorated with hay, cobwebs, old lanterns and other characteristic objects. Bales of hay were placed about the hall for the dancers to sit upon. Finally, on February 20, came the big event. Good music and a fine floor helped everyone to have a good time. Again. on the 25th,of hfay, the class came to the fore, presenting 1111 interesting and appropriate Decoration Day program in the assembly hall. The class has contributed a fair share toward the athletic prowess of thc school. Seamans, Loughran, Pizzo and Cipolla played limited basketball, while Seamans and Cornaggio played on the baseball team. The class of '30 was well represented in the three one-act plays, with .lohn Gomez and Jess lValls taking leading parts. The originality and ingenuity of the sophomores were expressed when Rleanore De Soto won first prize for the best costume at the girls' jinks. As in other things, the class is high in scholarship, boasting of fifteen boys and girls on the honor roll. Much is expected from this year's sophomore class as next yearis juniors They expect to take active part in managing student body affairs. if'ms'r Sl'1Ml'IS'1'1'1Il ililill .losi-:rn .........,, C,x1.v1N Simms .......,. .l'Il'IllBl4IllT Huowx ,,.,, H l'2Rlil'LR'l' Vlilzizlm ..... lloI.LIs IAIUGIIRAN, ...... ...... . l'iioi:m1: HlXlNlII.'1'fJN .,.... .,,..., OFFICERS President.,..,,,,, .......Vice-Presirlent.....,. ,,,.,,,,,Seeretary,,,,,,,,,.., ...,,,Sergreant-at-Arms,.....,.
