WILLIAM KARLIN PRESIDENT RAYNELDA JURACEK SECRETARY CLASS SPONSORS JAMES KRUMLAND TREASURER Spirit Stays After Many Ups and Downs Juniors existed in between and up-and-down from other classes. It was necessary to act nonchalant. They became the lower upperclassmen. Juniors were always in the middle of things. There was someone always above and someone always below them. A typical junior’s name might have been announced over the bulletin one day for three meetings after school and another at night. The following Monday someone would have forgotten who the junior was. Juniors live in utter chaotic humdrum one week; the next week they become frantic with inactivity. Specialization marked the scholastic part of the junior role. Each junior had to decide if college preparatory, commercial, general, industrial arts, or vocational agriculture was the best course for himself, for some lessons became tougher; others relaxed after a hectic sophomore year. These middlemen gained importance as the year progressed. Some were elected secretaries and treasurers or, at least, committee chairmen in the various clubs. To fill the vacant treasury, the class staged the junior show. Suddenly it was nearly prom time and juniors began to work madly in secret. Then graduation duties were placed on the middlemen. They were up for president of the club. Seniors were leaving. It was time for the middlemen to move up. 1 After endless hours of prom headaches and decorations, Raynelda Juracek takes time out to make plans of her own. 30
