In this space it is impossible to list every achievement and success¬ ful activity of the class, but one thing especially worthy of mention is the Junior Class Play, “Grow¬ ing Pains,” staged on March 27. In producing “Growing Pains” the juniors ventured, under the able direction of Miss Evelyn Richey, the first class play in Crown Point SENIOR PROPHECY (Continued from Page Sixteen! known as “Swingbad, the Sailor”, Junior Class j High in two years; and it was a huge success, both dramatically and financially. The class roll is filled with fine athletic material, and many letter- men in both major sports were juniors. Allen Danks, Howard Hartung, Charles Van Denburg, and Homer Randolph were four of the [ heaviest men on the football squad, and made a good showing during | the 1935 season.

Georgia Carroll and Marjorie Frame, who made up the affirma¬ tive team, represented the class in the field of debate; and the school’s outstanding clown is a jun¬ ior too, a fellow by the name of Dudley. Three words, pep, ability, and versatility, describe the juniors. More power to them next year! years! “Woozle”is trying to break up the conversation in order to re¬ late the latest report on the White Sox. Oh, agony!

As someone once said “The freshman doesn’t know that he doesn’t know, but the sophomore knows that he doesn’t know.” The class of ’38 has come through its Sophomore year with colors fly¬ ing. To every event the Sopho¬ mores contributed that peppiest of cheer leaders, Becky Lamson, and more than their share of enthus¬ iastic support. For the past two years the Queen of the Hallowe’en Carnival has been chosen from this class. In 1934 it was Fern Purdy, and last year Dorothy Platt carried off the honors. One Sophomore, Bob Sykora, was for two years the hardest working. hardest fighting back on the foot¬ ball squad. Welsh, Golden, Brooks, and Wagner have shown much abil¬ ity on the hardwood, and are good prospects for the next two years. The Sophomores are sometimes rough, and sometimes noisy. But that may well be overlooked; be¬ cause whenever we need a lot of pep and enthusiasm to put over an activity, we turn to the class of ’38.
