Junior History This year's junior class started the year by electing Mr. Kreider. sponsor: Vard Ellis, president: Bemis Martin, vice-president: Marjorie Leinhart, sec- retaryg and Anna McDowell, treasurer. It has been the custom of the junior class to sponsor the skating parties. This year was no different than the past years as they were attended by a large crowd. The juniors wish to thank the student body for its cooperation in attending these parties and helping to make them a success. For our class play We selected and presented Shiny Nose, a comedy in three acts, directed by Mr. Kreider. We closed the year with the junior-senior banquet. We would also like to thank Mr. Kreider for the help he has given us and We hope he has enjoyed working with us. The 1943 Concordian 21

Class of 1945 We, the sophomore class, organized this year electing Mr. McCuen as our sponsorg Von Kime as presidentg Howard Lewallen as vice-president, and Mary Checkley as secretary-treasurer. On October 9 we initiated the freshmen into high school. The party was held in Herman Rumfelt's barn. We didn't mean to be too hard on them. However, there was one casualty. The freshmen then entertained us at a return party in November. We appreciate the help of Mr. McCuen and we wish to be very successful in our following years at Concord High School.
