Twenty-four Canal Currents - 1951 The Class of 1952 O N September 7, 1951, the Juniors gayly paraded up the front walk, opened the door and walked down the corridor. After skipping up the stairs, they marched down the upper corridor and took their seats. Where did they take these seats? Not in the regular Junior room. Oh, no! Not these Juniors! They had such a bulging class that they had to use the study hall for their homeroom. In the latter part of September, the Juniors held a class meeting. Under the expert guidance of Mr. Butler, their new homeroom teacher, they undertook the duty of elect- ing class officers. After this was accomplished they decided to give a square dance. Although there were many doubts as to the success of the outcome of this venture, it really turned out successfully. This was not only a fine way to have fun, but also a money-making proposition. So what happened? These wise old Juniors put on another square dance which went off equally as well as the first. Because the dances that the Juniors gave were so successful, Mr. Coady asked them to plan the Christmas party. The Juniors gladly began to decorate the hall, order re- freshments, and plan the entertainment. As was expected, everyone enjoyed himself immensely. In order to earn more money, these money-minded Juniors decided to hold paper drives on the last Sunday of every month. And, consequently, on these appointed days, the Juniors put on their old clothes, piled into trucks and canvassed the town for scrap paper. One day, in the early part of November, the Juniors were seen walking around B.H.S. with proud and beaming faces. Upon examination, we found that the reason for these happy faces was the arrival of their class rings. These Juniors, however, seem- ed to have a prouder air than most classes have had. When this attitude was in- vestigated, it was discovered that they were the first class for a period of about ten years who had stones in their rings. Further inspection of these rings showed a little gold B set neatly on a black onyx stone which was placed in a gold setting. These Juniors were not only ambitious, but they also proved to be very athletic. They are especially proud of the Bradford twins, who did a superb job of representing their class on the football field, where Bob Collis, another Junior, was showing his ath- letic ability as captain-elect. The outstanding girl athletes in the class, who played on the basketball team, were Beth Cook, Shirley Robbins, and Front row ( . to r.) : K. Michelson, D. Sawtell Back row: M. Gibbs, H. Jarvis

Boyd. the basketball team, were Beth Cook, Shirley Robbins, and Laurianne Handy. It is very gratifying to know that these outstanding players will be here next year to roll the Purple Wave on to victory. When February came around, the Juniors began to do some serious thinking about the annual Junior Prom. The first thing they had to do was to decide on a theme. After this was decided, they began making decorations and selling tickets. The class hired Joe Pioppi’s orchestra for the big night,” and the dance, which was held on May 18, was, as the traditional Junior Proms always are, a ' whopping” success. Another event in which a lot of the Juniors took part, was the Driver Training Course. This course, which was started last year, teaches any pupil the mechanics of a car and how to drive it. By taking this course, a pupil is taught the correct and safe ways of operating a car and, therefore, will be one of the Safe Drivers of Tomorrow. All in all, this has been another successful year for the Juniors. It is sincerely hoped that their next year will be equally as successful and that, when they march down the aisle wearing their caps and gowns, they will be well prepared to walk the road of life.
