Goodby, old Decatur High, it ' s been great being with you. We are all leaving ; many will leave to go to the new school building, the others have taken their diplomas and set out to face — the world. But you, old D. H. S., will always head our list of never-to-be-forgotten memories.

The Junior Class—A Thing Not Yet Com- Juniors at last ! After two years of work and play what a thrill it is to be upperclassmen. Some had dropped out during those two years, but ninety-two remained to take over the tasks and responsibilities of juniors. Miss Lewton act- ed as their advisor, assisted by the class officers : James Christen, president ; James Highland, vice- president ; Betty Hamrna, secretary ; Richard Schafer, treasurer. This year the varsity basketball squad ' s first five was composed entirely of juniors. John Mc- Connell, James Highland, Lewis Shoe, Kenneth Gaunt, Clarence Stapleton, Junior Zerkel, and Gilbert Hoffman fought hard to win for the school they represented. On the gridiron we found the following jun- iors: John McConnell, Jim Highland, Marion Friedt, Paul Neidigh, Lewis Shoe, Bob Stalter, Junior Zerkel, Clarence Stapleton, Bob Maloney, Bob Kenworthy, Bill Melchi, Jane Trieker, Ken- neth Gaunt, and Gilbert Hoffman. Although the junior boys were outstanding in sports, when it came to the honor roll, they were conspicuous by their absence. Eight girls represented the junior class on the honor roll. They were Kathryn Knapp, Marjorie Massonne, Ruth Grether, Gladys Miller, Mae Mauller, Flora Marie Lankenau, Betty Hunter, and Barbara Burk. Not only were the girls exceptionally intelli- gent, but they were also actively interested in sports.
