The class began to work very hard on the junior play the last two weeks of November. The play was to be given December 12, but was postponed indefinitely be- cause of a traffic accident, envolving two members of the cast. - -, A Robert Hall left the class at the end of the first semester. The Junior Prom was a big success. It was given in the gymnasuim which was beautifully decorated. The theme song was HNemoriesn, and the orchestra, which was veryigood, was the ufbstern Swingstersn from Davenport, Washington. The prom was given in honor of the seniors. Springtime soon came, and we started decorating the church with beautiful flowers to pro- vide a proper setting for bac- calaureate services which were held on Yay 23. Then on may 25, came the great day to prepare for senior graduation. ft decorated the stage with vases of flowers. The girls corsages were of blue and white carnations, and the boys' had matching buttonaires. vb all hope to be dignified seniors next year.
