The CHARHIAN ELEVENTH GRADE will come the Charhian. years from now. As this year’s juniors open the book they will think of their first up- per-class year with a smile. The team leaders of the magazine sales. Rita French. Mabel Robins. Hob Casler. and Joyce Walker had a high old time trying to collect their money. Then there were those unfortunate souls who had to pay three dollars dues because they didn't sell any mag- azines. The red-pepper experience with the food in the junior play and the jokes that Bob Casler cracked backstage will be recalled with a giggle. The campaign speeches of •‘Shorty’’ Foster and Roy Weaver were really great works of art. The campaign managers of the candidates for mayor and secretary of 1946-’47 showed their true wit on the campaign posters. Ah. what a friend won’t do for an- other friend! Speaking of friendship many will remember the congenial way in which some of the feminine members of the class, who had their lockers across from the home economics room, got along: Ahem! No one will forget the work spent on the prom. Maybe there were a few squabbles about the theme, color schemes and such, but even that year's seniors admitted that it was a super and successful prom. All in all the class of 1947 completed a very active junior year with heads held high to meet their last year of high school. Junior Class Leaders j President .........Albert Foster !

The first thing we did when we returned from one refresh- ing summer vacation was to plunge into the work of selling magazines. The results were gratifying, and it filled our treasury with more money than its royal coffers had ever seen the likes of before. Next on the list was the annual junior play called New Fires , which in spite of many pessimistic predic- tions that it would be a “flop”, turned out to be a booming success through the loyal work and support of the en- tire class. It would not be fair to forget to mention the class athletes to whom the school owes a great deal of its ath- letic pride. There are not very many boys in our class, but we had stars in football, cross country, basketball, track, and tennis. Not only do we have an athletic class, but we have a scholastic class, too. Only three stu- dents went to the honor banquet on grades, although many more almost reached that goal but were held back by some tough subject. We sponsored one dance which was a financial success. Along the enter- tainment line was an assembly, which served its purpose—entertainment. The big event of the year for the juniors was the prom. Everyone help- ed, even people who weren’t in our class. We owe our success to the guidance of our advisers. Mr. Mead, Mr. Blight. Miss Holmes, and Miss Del Favero who were always ready to help us.

Clifford Shulls Class Emblems Motto: The quitter never wins, and the winner never quits Flower: Rose Colors: Blue and Cold ---------------------------------4 Reminiscing After having completed a success- ful year (in their estimation at least) the sophomores have the appearance of not l eing so unvarnished as the freshmen, hut still able to stand a good shellacking. Their next year of high school is supposed to give them that, of course. The sophomore fellows and girls huve liecome quite chummy with each other this past year, and several cou- ples have come to be known as “in- separable”, so to speak. Then there are. as always, some guys and gals who have struck acquaintances'' with Juniors and seniors. Perhaps these factors are the certain something that made the class of '48 8 parties such howling successes. The tenth graders have been on hand all year to discourage the fresh- men. and some of them feel that they know all the answers. When they start off their junior year of high school, they will have a great deal to confront. We feel sure, however, that they will take it in their stride and muke a fine success of it.

Milford Mason. Joan David Henry Ford ............Peter Kardel President’s Message From the very first to the very last day. we sophomores have had a very enjoyable year. We have had parties und hay rides which turned out very successfully, with the help of our ad- visers. Hard work, planning, and co- operation have brought us to work to- gether as a winning team. The sopho- mores this year have made up a good percentage of the football and basket- ball teams. Six of our l est athletes have been a groat help to a prosperous school football team. Not only in football but in other athletic activities, the sophomores have been of assist- ance. They have played a most im- portant part in the Charlotte line-up. and we hope that there will be more from the class on the first team next year. We have had an active and success- ful, year in which we have worked to conserve money for our senior trip. Some events toward this consisted of two hot-dog sales which were well carried out because of the co-opera- tion of the advisers and the students. Sponsoring dances has also given us a tremendous profit toward this pro- ject. Our class dues were fifty cents and ninety-seven per cent of the class co-operated willingly which brought us approximately fifty-five dollars. Most of the money made by the sopho- mores this year has been raised by the class itself. At this time wre should like to thank our advisers for the support and at- tention they have given us during the year of 45-'46. Our gratitude goes to Mrs. Iauch. Miss Taffee, Mr. Grin- dull. and Mr. Straw for the wonderful help they have given us. Sammy Colizzi. President. Row 1— J. Ackley, R. Allen. J. Ball. L. Btrgman, N. Betty, B. Boyd. Row 2—L. Boyer, M.
