| “ £ R (3 S I C %C C C%C C C%C%D%C I ' History of Junior Class m The Junior class entered High School as Freshmen in 1915. There were twenty members to start with, but seven left us before the close of the year. Only thirteen now remained to finish the work and start in again next year. Our class was well represented in the athletic and literary associations. We were quite popular with the professor and were often seen paying him a friendly visit in his office. We were all glad when we dropped the name of. “Freshies and entered school in 1916 as distinguished Sophomores. This year cur number had increased to about seventeen, but did not hold that standard very long. Only a few remained when we finished our second year of high school. Eleven loyal Sophs bid adieu to school and knowledge on the eighth of June and entered into the summer vacation with as much spirit and enthusiasm as they had high school life the year before. Our boys and girls showed great skill in athletics as well as manual training and domestic science. We did nothing very distinguishing along these lines, but hoped to win our colors the next year. Fourteen proud and happy high school students entered the new Atwood Township High School as Ju- niors in 1917. We were proud and happy for more reasons than one. We certainly appreciated the new building and advantages which the people of the community had given us, but in addition to this we were proud just because we were “Juniors.” We started out to win, and have done our best all the way through. Our class was represented in every phase of athletics. Although it wasn't large, we still were able to have a few foot-ball stars on the team; also some basket ball stars. Two of our boys represented the Junior class in the basket ball tournament at Decatur. This is another thing which the Juniors have to be proud of. One of our Junior boys won first place in the oratorical contest between Atwood and Bement. At the county oratorical contest at Monticello he was awarded second place. Taken as a whole we have a very intelligent and resourceful class. We hate to see the Seniors leave us, but we will be very glad indeed when we may be known by that honorable name. Although we have only started this year, we hope to finish winning our share of glory before we leave our classmates and the dear old orange and black. Lena Randall.
