George Kilpatrick, Millicent Cook, Bascom Birmingham, Don Horen Junior Script With a show of confidence and an air of sophistica- tion rarely seen in underclassmen, the Iunior class with their numerous assets were able to create an atmosphere of Wholesome school spirit throughout Senior High school. In athletics, music, dramatics or whatever you choose the Iuniors executed their part greatly to the satisfaction of all. Most of this credit is due to the Iunior class spon- sors, Miss Reid, Miss Peterson, Miss l.eBow, Miss Winsor, Mr. Kohr and Mr. Latta. Organizing about the middle of the first semester, the class elected George Kilpatrick, president, Don Horen, vice-president, Millicent Cook, secretary, and Bascom Birmingham treasurer. The campaign was one of the hottest the school had ever seen and it was climaxed on the final day with a parade and pep band. ln football the Iuniors were represented by Calvin Ax- tell, Don Horen, Barney Carroll, Oliver Weideman, Rob- ert Bauman, Charles Fry, Devan Hershey, William Ien- kins, Dale Liedtke, Harold lones, and Clarence Plank. Basketball attracted Calvin Axtell and Marvin Lar- sen With Max Burroughs acting as student manager. Co-captain of the swimming team was Don Horen. Others on it were Dale Nevitt, Willard Gariss, Merle Bred- well, Harold Dieken, George Larnpe, and Dean Iamieson. Clarence Plank, Robert Summers, Devan Hershey, lerry Haase, Calvin Axtell, Phillip Titus, George Lampe, and Robert Bauman went out for track. The entire debate team consisted of Iuniors, They Won a good number of their debates. The debaters Were Bill Suhr, Clarence Plank, George Kilpatrick, Willard Gar- iss, Bob Coonley, Gerald Ballard, lack Thompson, laNelle Sprague, and Mary Ann Mattoon. The Iuniors were represented in cheerleading by Roberta Stout, who was also chosen Pigskin Queen by the football team. Millie and Bob hayracking it. The Iunior class chose Footloose, a delightful com- edy by Charles Quimly Burdette for their play, The play centers around the Early family, particularly the four children Who, after talking their parents into taking a cruise, find themselves involved in numerous difficulties. The parents return in time to settle everything and the play ends happily, The play was directed by Miss Clara Iohnson. Also in the dramatics department Millicent Cook won two first-place medals at the Hastings Speech Festival for extemporaneous reading of poetry and humorous reading from the book. Bascom Birmingham's outstanding talent at the mar- imba enabled him to entertain the student body in an assembly program and he also played over the radio for a Gospel program. Varsity letters in gym were received by lunior lucid, Don Boyden, Robert Phelps, Iohnathan Puckett, Phillip Titus. Clarence Plank, a lunior, was elected vice-president of the Student Council and Millicent Cook was elected secretary and treasurer of the l94l State Student Coun- cil convention in the fall. Many luniors Worked under the supervision of Miss Merwin as librarians and monitors. The luniors entertained the outgoing Seniors in grand style at the banquet, May l5. The theme of the banquet Was right in step with the times, following the patriotic motif. All in all it was a successful year for the soon-to-be Seniors-Iuniors. Making lemonade?
