THE FRESHMAN CLASS Hrs is the largest class in the school at the present time and perhaps its size causes the mem- bers to be seen everywhere, doing all sorts of things. Needless to say they are a peppy group of boys and girls. The class boasts several good ath- letes and school spirit evinces that the entire group is athletically-mind- ed. The girls serve as excellent rooters for their boys and spur them on to victory. Dramatic ability is very evident in the freshman class. When occasions arise needing special speakers, the members of the ninth class are very often chosen to do this Work. A great number of these boys and girls have conducted radio programs, or have recited poems on these programs. A freshman girl, Mary Jean J orae, rep- resented the school in a recent speech demonstration for junior high schools in Dearborn. As a class perhaps the freshmen have not achieved prominence, but as individuals they have attracted a great deal of attention. When they become older and begin to assume more responsibilities, it seems certain that this individual prominence will be replaced by class prominence. KEY TO PICTURESVON OPPOSITE PAGE 1.
