These Juniors Are Persevering When the class of “42” were Freshmen, they didn’t even mind being called “Freshies” so much. They started their four eventful years by selecting Miss Shively, Miss Monger, and Mr. McNown as their class sponsors. In their Sophomore year the boys began to shine in athletics, and important positions on the staff of the Comet were held by Alice Ann Arnold, Maxine Buroker, Agnes Mailer, Peggy Sands, and Pat Davison. The year closed with a class get-together held at the gym, at which everyone enjoyed themselves amidst cries of “Goodbye until next year!” During this, their Junior year, they have been doing their very best to earn enough money to give us “dignified Seniors” a suitable reception. They held two bake sales, which increased their treasury materially. Their officers now are Tom Hiatt, president; Forrest Moore, vice-president; Doris Ann Besore, secretary; Carolyn Dotterer, treasurer: and Paul Baumgartner, member of the Athletic Council. On March 14 they produced their Junior Class Play, a play which was their pride and joy, and from which they cleared $197.10. They held two class parties during the year in the school gym, with entertainment furnished by their own “Rhythm Kings.” They tried again to win first prize in Joe’s annual contest, but it seems that the Sophomores just wouldn’t be beaten; therefore they had to be satisfied with second prize, which was fifteen dollars. The four Juniors chosen for the National Honor Society were Maxine Buroker, Agnes Mailer, Carolyn Dotterer, and Tom Hiatt. With the Junior-Senior reception over, the Juniors’ activities for the current year will close and in September, 1941, they will enter high school as sedate Seniors.
