This band of kids increased to 68, 20 coming from the surrounding regions, adding a lot of color to the class of Ml. Our class officers who were chosen in the fall of the last round-up in Junior High consist of: President—Bob H. Hauffc, Vice-president—Genevieve Mittlestacdt, Secretary John Buckles. Treasurer—Earl Cook, and Delegate at Large—Judy Prcgenzcr. Everyone, including quite a few members of the male sex (AHEM!) grieved at losing Genevieve Mittlestacdt. She docs come home quite a bit. though, and so------. But. she's a swell girl and wc were sorry to lose her. Two new members. Josephine Pctkoff and Boh Sanford joined us this year. Josephine came from Lake Geneva, one of our rivals, in basketball, and already seems to have made a place for herself in our class. Bob came from somewhere in Illinois—I’m not sure where—Oh. yes, in Aldcn. and he like Josephine has nude quite a place tor himslf. Well, here we arc at the end of our first year in high school. Woe is us! Only 3 more to go!!!

We paraded through the halls with thoughts about “The Big Room Were we going to like it? Was it difficult having so many teachers? The seventh graders, to be. were being teased lure and there, while the teachers were thinking how different they were. Miss McCrossin sent thirty-six of her pupils into Junior High. From another room twelve of Miss Reques pupils filed in. Most all of us carried white slips of paper on which was written our schedule for the coming year As we looked upon it. it seemed rather complicated but today we could march from class to class in our sleep with our heads held high. Social science, science, arithmetic, F.nglish, gym. home economics, manual arts, music, study, and home room were listed. When school began in the fall, we started to work finding that the main room was much different from what we were told it would be. We passed from class to class in daily routine. Nothing happened until Miss Wold began Science Club and the girls of the seventh grade started cheering, for the boys really excelled when they defeated the eighth grade twice. Maybe the seventh grade of 1940-41 can turn out some st3r players in basketball and football. And so the year passed by with both the good and the bad things happening: passing or failing tests, reading books, writing essays, and the usual things which appear in the school life. The seventh graders who were once sixth graders are working hard for the eighth grade honors and the chance of becoming better students of the Delavan Junior High.
