Jocular Juniors On September seventh, nineteen hundred and thirty-eight, sixty-two boys and girls of De- catur High School began the third chapter of High School Days. My, what a thrill it was to become upperclassmen. It wasn ' t with a look of awe that they watched the seniors parade through the halls this year. After the somewhat embar- rassing situation of being freshmen and sopho- mores, they felt grown up and began to antici- pate the coming year with a new meaning. It was this same spirit and enthusiasm that carried the class through the year ' s activities with flying colors. At the first class meeting the following offi- cers were elected to cooperate with Miss Lewton, newly elected class guardian, in planning the activities for the year : president. Bob Mann ; vice-president, Dick Hammond; secretary, Doro- thy Hoffman ; treasurer, James Kitchen. It is the wish of every pupil to be able to do something for his class in some way or another. Those who did their part by upholding the intelli- gence rating of the junior class by having their names appear at least once on the honor roll were : Betty Fuhrman, Peggy Gaunt, Vivian Hitchcock, Dorothy Hoffman, Bob Mann, Marjorie Miller, and Jean Zimmerman. Although the class was not represented by such a large number on the hardwood, the follow- ing boys added a lot of life and spirit to the team and were in there fighting for D. H. S. every minute of the games that they played: Charles Andrews, Bob Stapleton, Richard Walter, and Ned Johnson. Basketball caused much enthusiasm among the girls also. Those juniors who were outstand- ing in the sport were Jean Zimmerman, Vera Sauer, Pauline Acker, Thelma Smith, Barbara Jean Duke, Katherine Weiland, and Betty Ross. The class was well represented on the grid- iron. With the call for football came sixteen juniors reporting for practice. They were Rich- ard Walter, Bill Brown, Charles Andrews, Ned Johnson, Bob Eichhorn, John Gerber, Bob Lord, Bob Mann, Dick Foreman, Dick Fennig, Bob Bax- ter, Bob Egly, Harry Massonne, Hollis Bonifas, Duane Davidson, and James Kitchen. On April fourteenth the class presented the farce-comedy Smart Boy. The play was very successful, due to the hard work of the following people who composed the cast: Bill Brown, H .s ije vi ii Peggy G a u n t. Bob Eichhorn, Kathleen Fryback, Bob Staple- ton, Patsy Moser, Bob Gentis, Eileen Bow- man, John Gerber, and Barbara Jean Duke. Bill Archbold and Ed- ward Beavers were the stage managers ; Ned Johnson was the business manager; Anna Brandyberry and Phyllis Hunter were the student coaches; and Marjori2 Miller and Jean Zim- merman were on th3 properties committee. Much credit for the success of the play, however, must go to Miss Lewton for her very capable direction. Junior boys and girls were outstanding in many other activities at D. H. S. Among these were baseball, tennis, Howling Hosts, Pep Champs, Glee Club, and both the Boys ' and Girls ' Bands. The class colors are crimson and gold; the flower is the red rose; and the motto is, We will find a path or make one. Every junior tried to live up to that motto. Every junior tried to help put his class out in front; and due to their everlasting spirit of cooperation and enthusiasm, they met overwhelming success. The proceeds of the play were used to finance the Junior-Senior Prom. This is an annual affair at which the juniors entertain the seniors and faculty. This year the juniors had as their guests ninety-one seniors and twenty-one faculty mem- bers and their friends. The affair was held on May 19 in the new auditorium, which the juniors had decorated in a novel and artistic manner. After the clever and unusual program, dancing was enjoyed. Then refreshments were served by sixteen sophomores. Miss Lewton, the junior class sponsor, had charge of all the arrangements for this exclusive formal function. She was assisted by numerous students. They all worked for many weeks on the program and decorations, but unprecedented success was their reward. This affair was a momentous occasion for the juniors and a very fitting tribute to the graduates of ' 39. Twenty-I ' ive
