Although numerically the smallest class in school, the juniors have a strong spirit of solidarity and loyalty. With a few exceptions the class roll is the same as that at fresh- man registration, and the con- stant working and playing to- gether has intensified our un- ity. We have maintained a good scholarship record, and have participated in many of the school activities. At the beginning of the present year, the juniors staged a wiener roast at the Scout Cabin. Among the many glowing memories of the evening the most vivid, perhaps, is that of an embryo Carrie Nation who completely demolished the pipe of her fellow-classman, a member of the football squad. Another class project was President Robert Carrell Vice-President john Redding Secretary-Treasurer Evelyn Davis Sergeant-at-A rms Harold Piper Rh- vr ' fp-' First row: Griffin, Fairchild, Rains, Lowry, Waters, Highland, Baily, McDivitt, Russell, Brown F., Swinford, Mclnturf.

They presented a cross-section of their school work. The budding and half-blown poets of the class prepared a versified account of the recent news, including everything from the Supreme Court to the Duke of Windsor and Mrs. Simpson. Our amateur musicians showed talent, and a French shark recited a French poem. Specialists in shorthand told of the history of shorthandg and both shorthand and typing were demonstrated by Juniors in the commercial department. On Stunt Night the Juniors blossomed forth with f Dem Wooly' Bonds of Hemlock which brought them third place. Following in his fath- er's footsteps, Harold Hayes united in marriage a buxom pair, Edward Rennels and the timid bridegroom, John Stoner. The chief undertaking of the junior class each year is the junior-Senior banquet, which climaxes the year's activities. In preparation for this gala occasion the Juniors sold tickets for Coronation and Stunt Night in an effort at least to cover the bottom of their coffers. These said coffers were replenished also by the sponsoring of the Shakesperian screen play, As You Like It. Such financial undertakings have left the Juniors careworn and broken,--but the result was worth it. What a banquet, if we do say it! Pemberton Hall decked out for May Day, pastel streamers, spring flowers, soft lights, merriment, and danc- ing! A fitting Hnale to a pleasant year. Can it be that after a brief summer we will be back invested with all the dignity that graced the class of '37? Qfsrg
