JUNIOR HISTORY We have just finished our most eventful year in high school—the Junior year. The strongest ties of friendship have been made in this class, for one really understands his classmates and a desire has been created within to be friends with all. We are proud of our classmates, who have proved that they are capable of doing any task, no matter how difficult. The scholarship standing of the Juniors is very high. Every six weeks the honor roll is filled with names of our classmates. There are some who have lacked in some one grade, but have stood high in some others. The debating clubs formed this year have helped the boys a good deal. Those boys, who had an inferiority complex, have grown a little more confident. They can now formulate ideas and express them adequately. The Junior girls were enthusiastic about their dramatics. They realized it helped them a great deal. In social affairs the Juniors were second to none. At the tea-dances more Juniors were present than members of any other class. The Juniors held many evening dances; such as the Hallowe’en dance, Junior-Senior Prom, and the Sophomore Welcoming dance, all of which were very well attended. In athletics the Junior class outshines any other class in high school. The Championship football team had seven members from the Junior class on the first team. They were Simpson, Anderson, Coombs. Belcher. Casselbury. Terry, Hoffman, and Manager Lucy. The basketball squad had four Juniors on it. They are Campbell, Casselbury, Terry, and McCauley. The track team also had a number of aspirants from the Junior class. In the high school speaking contest, a Junior boy won first place for the boys and a Junior girl won first place for the girls. These students were Yern Casselbury and Esther Watkins. Vern Casselbury was successful in winning the county championship in a contest at Towanda with other school champions. In selection of a president the Junior class members showed rare judgment. LaVerne Zimmer was the boy elected for this position. President Zimmer has proved to be an active member, working for the benefit of the class as a whole. He helped, among other things, to keep the school paper in circulation. The Junior class as a whole saved the Athenian from an almost certain death. Through a plan of President Zimmer's our class was able to have every member subscribe for the paper. This inspired the other classes to do their best in filling their quota of subscriptions. We have other individuals in our class who are helping to make the Athenian bigger and better. Among these are Franklin Dolan—cartooning: Ruth Bowen—typing; Vern Cassel-bury—assistant editor; and John Lucy—assistant business manager. T think we are doing our share in the issue of Pennsylvania’s oldest scholastic paper. As Seniors, the class of ’35 will have new powers and new duties, and the rest of the student body of our high school may rest assured that we will fulfill all our duties and use our new found powers to the best of our ability.
