Junior Officers James Shaner President Merle Joy Vice-President Floyd Neely Secretary Lorraine Johnson Treasurer J. Shaner, M. Joy, !•’. Neely, L. Johnson. The year 1938 admitted to high school a group of typical grammar school products. We were unprepared lor the new routine and it provoked many a despairing shake of the head. Being lower classmen we were not allowed to participate in many activities hut we have to our credit the success of the linal Civic Youth Banquet held. Its success was largely due to the leadership of our class president, James Shaner, who served as master of ceremonies. He has held our class presidency for three years with a co-operative stall' to help. Our class advisor for the first year was Mr. George Kyser. e settled dow n the second year. e had begun to realize that a great deal of work was expected in preparation for the big event of the next year—the Junior play. Preparing for this dramatic triumph, a short skit, Penrod was revised from the original story and presented by members of the class. We also held a quiz program, prompted by “Book Week,” for members of the seventh and eighth grades. Alyn Shaner, master of ceremonies, showed a surprising talent and capability for such a position. With Mr. Kyser as class advisor again, we redoubled our attempts to make worthy upperclassmen. During our Junior year we have sponsored an indoor circus proving that everyone still “goes to town” when the circus arrives. We held bake sales, sold stationery, had candy sales at noon, and bs fair means and foul collected class dues, all for the purpose of replenishing our “pot of gold.” Benewing the old custom of school dances, neglected of late, the Junior and Senior classes pooled tlitir resources and staged a prom on January third. In -May, under the direction and supervision of Miss Vaughn, Miss Martiny, and Miss Herrick (class advisor), the Junior play “You’re Telling Me was presented. Bringing a short and happy close to the year was the annual Junior-Senior banquet, leas ing behind countless memories for safe keeping. 24 D. J. B.
