THE FLAME JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President ............................... Jake Walters Vice-President ............................. Carl Stull Secretary ............................. Lorcan Frances In 1932, one hundred and fifteen students registered at Casey Township High School as freshmen. The following weeks were ones of worry and grief, but “all’s well that ends well,” and so all that unpleasantness was soon forgotten. The year progressed rapidly, with the freshman initiation making everyone feel perfectly at home at Casey High. During this first year at high school, the class of ’36 elected the following class officers: Scott Brooke, president; Mavme h'nire, vice-president; Winifred Foster, treasurer, and Oran Boyd, secretary. Under their leadership, various members of the class at once began to participate in school activities. Many of the boys went out for football and basketball; the girls began to earn points for G. A. A.; both boys and girls joined the band and chorus. In every field of activity the freshmen made an effort to show their talents. The sophomore year in 1933 was a fine continuation of the spirit and enthusiasm that began in 1932. This year the officers were: Jake Walters, president; Delmar F.tnire, vice-president; and riarrv C'em, secretary and treasurer. An added feature to the class’s activities during 1933 was their participation in the all-school minstrel. To many of the boys and girls this was their first public appearance and it meant much to them in the way of dramatics, music, and fun. Of the hundred and fifteen students who entered Casey Township High School in the fall of 1932 as freshmen, eighty-eight registered in the fall of 1934 as juniors. This was a fine class of wide-awake boys and girls, who, with Jake Walters as their class president, were eager to take their places among the leaders of the school. The first important showing of their pep and loyalty was exhibited in the allschool parade that inaugurated the football season on September 29th. Nearly every member of the class participated in the making of floats, decorating of cars and in entering the actual parade itself. Eleven novel entries were credited to the juniors, a fact that earned for them the honor of winning second place and three dollars in prize money. First Row: Harry Clem. Delmar Etnire.
