JUNIOR MA i-i:ph+gii if i v: wi -v-- 13- - ,- - - .-il, i' all 'il Waqgiira frF 5f in Us W f I -Pl' The present Junior Class spent its first year in the old De La Salle Institute building at 59th Street. The first day we met in our assigned classes most of us were strangers to each other, but before the year was over, we were all friends and loyal supporters of De La Salle. VVhen we returned in September, last year, we found that only a third of our original Freshman class remained. A few newcomers who entered our class at the beginning of the term swelled our ranks and brought more glory to us through their athletic en- deavors. Among these were James Manning, George Conboy and Thomas McGuiness, all of whom were on the basketball team. As soon as the term had begun in earnest, the class society held a meeting and elected the fol- lowing officers for the present term: Peter McCormack, President, John Tierney, Vice-President, john Curry, Secretaryg and Norman McKenna, Treasurer. After a few class meetings, it was decided to hold a Junior Prom, and a committee was appointed for this purpose. Daniel Thompson, John Curry and Stephen XN'ohleb comprised our half of the committee. In the meanwhile, the football season was in swing, and our class turned out in force to support the team, despite thc rain, cold and wind always associated with this season. Only one of our classmates, Stephen Wfohleb gained a place on the team, although several tried for it. Before the football season was yet over, our coach was calling for basketball candidates, and once more, 3-A answered the call. This time it was james lvlanning, Thomas McGuiness, George Conboy and Thomas Manning who represented 3-A on the court. The last three earned letters as a reward, and Roy Kenel, was also ap- pointed Assistant Manager of that sport. Just before the Christmas holidays, a meeting of the entire Junior class was held, to discuss the details of our dance. The holidays passed all too swiftly and when we returned in january, we knew the eventful night was approaching. January 28th was the night, and the Hotel Majestic was the place. The dance, our first social affair, was a great success. However, another important event, the De La Salle Meet, which took place in the early part of january, gave an opportunity to all De La Salle supporters to prove their loyalty to their Alma Mater. Our class relay team, composed of VX-'illiam Schaefer, john Tierney, Stephen Wlohlleb and Charles Billings, took second place in the interclass event. The last two named also ap- peared in other meets with the De La Salle Mile Relay Team, and with Tier- ney and George Stavracos earned their letter on the track. VVhen the tennis team reorganized this year, Arthur Connell, John Thompson and his brother, Daniel who is the Assistant Manager, came out for practice. This chronicle of the year's events has progressed with scant mention of scholastic activity, but our scholars and embryo orators have had little opportunity to distinguish themselves. VVe believe there is plenty of op- portunity for that next year, however, and our debators must content them- selves with class honors. At this time, the third quarter of the year, our honor students are: Roy Kenel, Vtlilliam Schaefer, George Conboy, Norman McKenna, with either George Stavracos or Reginald Kennedy leading the class.
