JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY v - In the one thousand nine hundred and thirty-fifth year of our Lord, the Junior Class of Berrien Springs High School, invoking the blessings of Mathematics, English, Latin, and other devil-gods of the school, doth hereby and forewith deign to record its illustrious career. In the fall of nineteen thirty-two a great horde, fifty-six in number, did invade Berrien Springs High School. This horde, wild and untamed though they did seem, today, in a number diminished to forty doth constitute the sedate and superior Junior Class. Being grimly led by Mr. Hawkins, Mrs. Crittenden et cetera through the profound and prodigious mysteries of Algebra, English and other menaces to sanity, this army did finally emerge from the chaos exploiting a new banner with captain—Sophomores. Another summer did speed its way and another school year did dawn with the Sophomore Class of forty-five members, filled with great desire to create for themselves a name. And this they did, and did become an important factor in diverse activities and in particular, basketball. After they did partake of several wild orgies, known as parties and picnics, they became Juniors. Their fame did increase in the aforementioned field, their own candidate did become Sovereign of the High School Carnival, they did participate creditably in the Junior-Senior play and did nobly entertain the Seniors in the spring of nineteen thirty-five. Again we ask mercy of the gods on the above, being the record of the class of teen thirty-six to date. HeleiVVDK'lor Ll U, . J.J . ■YV (y u P
