JUNIOR CLASS Our class has been the smallest in the high school since we entered the seventh grade. We have never had more than twenty pupils. This year we have eighteen. The class has always been active in sports and music. This year we have five boys playing basketball. They are: Harry Myers, Charles Eversole, john Montgomery, Francis Clowe, and Gearld Ety. Mem- bers of the band are: Lois Fausnaugh, Phyllis Chaney, Josephine Hallarn, john Montgomery, Charles Eversole, and Melvin Rose. We also have sev- eral members in the Choir and Glee Clubs. Mrs. Fischer is our class advisor again this year. She has been with us since the ninth grade. Our only new student this year is Francis Clowe, who cane here from South High School in Columbus. When we came back to school last fall we realized that we had one of our most important and exciting years to look forward to. Two of the most important events to think about were the junior Class Play and the j'unior'Senior Banquet. In addition to keeping our scholastic average as high as possible, we have been very busy. Early in the year the class had a weiner roast and hayride at the home of Gerald Ety. Charles Eversole's father furnish' ed the tractor and wagon. We also selected our class rings. To help raise money to finance our banquet we have been selling refreshments at all the home basketball games. We have done well scholastically, too, so far in our high school car- eer. Melvin Rose placed first in the county in algebra and second in English l when he was a freshman, and first in both biology and geometry when he was a sophomore. He also won the coveted trip to Washington, D. C., by writing a winning American Legion Essay in 194-6. When it came time to begin work on our play we chose a three act comedy, The Campbells are Coming. Everyone thought that it would be a success because we had had some experience in acting. ln the eighth grade we gave a play for a Parent' Teacher-'s Association meeting. Also in the tenth grade we gave a short play for an assembly. When we gave our play on December 7, it turned out to be a bigger success than any of us had expected. We are eagerly looking forward to having a successful and happy senior year.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY This was a play with hillbilly trimmings describing the most effect' ive technique of getting rid of an undesirable suitor. Kaye Brannigan QBarbara Ruffnerj returns from a girls' school full of culture. Much to her family's dislike she breaks with sturdy jeff Schudder fMelvin Rosel and announces her engagement to a young snob, Kingston Campbell fFrancis Clowel. Learning that Kingston's aristocratic mother Uosephine Hallarnl believes that the Brannigans are hillbillies and that Kingston and his mother are coming for a visit to find out the truth, they decide to act as hillbillies. The Campbells arrive while Kaye is in town and the Brannigans appear bare- footed, dressed in rags and carrying shotguns, One riotously funny situation follows another in rapid succession. An old hen lays an egg in Mrs. 'Campbel1's ritzy hat. Mrs. Campbell faints and is accidentally revived with a jug of moonshine, under influence of which she made some startling statements 'regarding her past life and identity. At last, Kingston indignantly refuses to marry Kaye and the Brannigans rejoice that their scheme has worked. The Campbells have decided to go when Kaye arrives. The Brannigans fin' ally put the Campbells to complete rout and jeff turns cave man to win Kaye. Sophomore Clas s When we started our Freshman year 38 pupils were in our class.
