The Torch JUNIOR AH E returned from the usual summer vacation to meet our new mental and moral guardian, Brother Bernard. After the class had' abandoned the vacational atmosphere, we delved into our work. Our first step was to organize a class society. As a result, James Curley was elected president: Joseph Dris- coll, vice-presidentg Berard Witzig, as secretary: Thomas Kenny, treasurer. Joseph Frins and James Hammond were elected the oiiices of A. A. representa- tive. , .. ,L ,, l The call for Basketball candidates was received and enthusiastically answered by the members of the class. The Messrs. Keleher and Hammond won berths on the varsity team. The annual junior debate was announced and a careful selection of a team resulted in the choosing of Messrs. Curley, Donaldson, Kemp and Dris- coll. The topic for discussion was the Baumes Law and as the result of a very forceful, convincing and well planned argument. Junior A won. V Our next step in the process of development of self was to consolidate the two junior classes and elect a staff of oflicers. The officers of ther two junior classes were as follows: M. .O'Reilly, president: T. Lyons,- vice-presi- dent: and A. Campion, secretary. J. Donaldson was chosen as Editor-in- chief of the class paper. V ' Then came the call to join the Knights of the Divine Child and Junior A was unanimously enrolled in the organization. As for Exams we haven't much to say. Like all exams we had our fears before and our laughs after- wards. So far it. seems Witsig is paving the way toan t Excellence Medal having taken first position in the previous quarterlies. The Easter vacation was a welcomed relief to both student and teacher. Once back in school we settled down toserious studyfor the oncoming finals Beyond us stood the fruitful goal of these three years of strife, our one desire and ambition to be Seniors. The time seemed too short to prepare us for the test, the test that would make us or break us. And will any of us forget the day when we looked and laughed and looked again to make sure, and finally broke away to tell others of our good fortune. The year has had its share of sorrow and joy for each one of us. a We look forward in hope of experiencing those things which tend to direct the life of a senior. This last year has shown us more and more how little we know. And it seems that the day named for us to become a iinished product is far off. 1930
