HISTORY OF THE JUNIORS Three years ago, thirty-two mighty men of valor entered the portals of B. H. S. with but one noble ideal firmly fixed in their broad intellectual minds. The titles of these illust- rious seekers of the Holy Grail of Knowledge were: Roy Hem- brough, Riley Low, William Low, Velt Stafford, Lewis Bry- an, Riley Brown, William Love, Chester Harlan, Theodore Lamb, Charles Bowers, George Teays, Herbert Holt, Harry Hayes, Edwin Stansbury, Opal and Orpha Lunceford, Thelma Orbison, Violet Hayes, Olan Stevenson, Genevieve Noble, Edith Holeman, Edna Pritchett, Lena Burris, Alice Wright, Verle Holt, Minnie Heckenliable, Doris Holeman, Rosa Mason, Irene Bryan, Ruby Thompson, Farol Haynes and Florence Quist. Of this group the largest ever known to enter this place whence springs all knowledge only one, Lena Burris, stopped the search .for the Holy Grail and devoted her atten- tion to the vain pursuit of happiness thru the channels of marital bliss. The following year all of these were still eager and in- tent upon this search. Edith Holeman, Minnie Heckenliable, Edwin Stansbury and Velt Staiord searched for it in distant cities. Leta Boosinger was drafted into the service to assist in filling the depleted ranks. In this year we royally wel- comed the new band of pilgrims, who had made their wayin- to this country. Again this year, Edna Pritchett and Alice Wright took the ,fatal plunge into the sea of matrimony. The third year after their entrance many had disbanded and left until only twenty one of these brave heroic knights and ladies seached undispairingly. This year two dropped the seach and returned to their homes.
