JUNIOR CLASS ('lass Motto: Yo Victory Without Labor. Class Colors: Red and White ('lass Flower: Carnation In '27 we, the class of 731, began the enjoyable life of high school students. We were forty-four in number and the largest class in school. With Miss Kid- die's guidance as sponsor, we completed that year as successfully as could be expected. When we returned the next year as Sophomores, we chose Mr. Henning as our official guardian. Some of our classmates had been left by the wayside, so we were only thirty-two in number. We sailed along on an easy gale, but, never- theless, we were well represented in all organizations. In the autumn of 1929, we entered into the third year of our high school career—to he known as the upper classmen. We achieved success in presenting “Cappy Ricks —our Junior play—followed by a dance which greatly pleased our evening's audience. Our prom was the greatest success of the year, where the orchestra kept the tip toes busy until the wee hours of the .morning. We have many members participating in band and orchestra. They are Emma Buchholz, Ivan Berg, Eugene Arnold, Gordyn Crofoot, William Larson, Norma Nelson, Millard Kay, Carita Smith, Frances Watson and Bertha Berg. In athletics we are represented by three girls,—Irene Arnold, Nancy Rob- erts, and Carita Smith, who made the first team in girls' basketball—four boys, Millard Ray, William Larson, Ivan Berg, and George Robertson in boys' basket- ball, who, with the addition of Sigurd Dyrland, Soph us Peterson, and Oscar Ray took part in football also. Oscar Ray, Millard Ray, William Larson, Ivan Berg, George Robertson and Herbert Farley played an active part in track. After nosing out of the small end of the score, the Juniors defeated the Sophomores in the final game of the Inter-Class basketball tournament, win- ning the first place and being the only undefeated team. Two of our members, Irene Arnold and Emma Buchholz are officiating in the Home Ec. Club and Ivan Berg, William Larson, Millard Ray, and Eugene Arnold are holding office in the Future Farmers of America. Much interest in dramatics was shown by our class. In extemporaneous speaking, Ivan Berg placed first with Emma Buchholz following as second. As our representative in the oratorical contest, Ivan Berg again came forth. The debaters of our class proved to be Joe Blazek and Ivan Berg. Scholarship holds a high place in the Junior class, Emma Buchholz and Bertha Berg being members of the color guard since the time of its organiza- tion. Last, but not least, we wish to pay tribute to our faithful sponsor—Mr. Wilson, who has patiently led us over the rugged paths of our Junior term and to the summits of our coming Senior year.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY On December 13, the ('lass of '31 presented “Gappy Kicks, a play built on Peter B. Kyne’s novel of the same name. The play shows Cappv’s irascible, kindly nature as lie quarrels with his general manager, Skinner, as he mixes with Matt in business deals; as lie does the best he can to secure the happiness of his only daughter, Florence. The one unforgivable sin in his eyes was to allow anyone to “cover him with blood and get away with it. The love stories of Matt and Florence and Cecil Pericles and his “Goldie Glake are highly entertaining. The play ends with Gappy proud of his son-in-law, and the lovers well on the road to living “happily ever after.” The cast of characters in order of their appearance: Ellen Murray - John Skinner Cappy Eicks Mr. Singleton Florence Bids - Matt Beasley Cecil Pericles Bernard Aunt Lucy Bicks - Brookfield Coach - - Irene Arnold Ivan Berg - Millard Bay Mark Cooper Frances Watson - William Larson Eugene Arnold Mabel Shellhorn Oscar Bay - Irma Brown Page Twenty-three
