American literature, chemistry, typing, American history, bookkeeping, and advanced h0me economics were all subjects on the Juniors' curriculum. Like other Juniors before, the Class of '50 turned salesmen for a few weeks after October l and set a new record for magazine sales. The gross sales of S900 netted S301 for the Juniors. LaVaughn Lill won the table radio for the largest individual sales. Other money-making maneuvers in- cluded refreshment sales at all athletic events. Encouraged and directed by Miss Harriet Baker, the Juniors Ven-- tured into the dramatic field. Shoot the Works, a three-act comedy, was successfully presented on November l7th before two enthusiastic audiences. February saw the Juniors entertain the high school with a success- fully novel sock dance. Shoes and sandals were checked away leaving the dancers to trip the light fantasy in stockinged feet. Prizes were awarded for the loudest sox, biggest feet, etc. Busy Juniors, under direction of Miss Frances Menard, converted whispered conferences and long 'hours of streamer-hanging into the tradi-- tionally wonderful Junior-Senior Prom. With the gym and halls transformed into a magical setting, the '49 Prom went down into our hearts as a night to remember. Juniors, yes, but more important, an integral part of our H. H. S. Participating in extra-curriculars, recording good grades, the Juniors helped mark up i948-49 as a successful year.

. sophomores suffer . . Schneckloth, secretary, Schroeder vice president Fahan, president Tradition says that the sophomores are the forgotten class in high school. But not so for the Holstein High edition of sophomores in '49. Although without initiation, the prom or graduation, the sophomores made themselves known as an important part of our school. Wider horizons came with the larger selection of elective subjects. E-iology, speech, advanced home economics, geometry, and business training helped fill out the sophomores' curriculum along with the required English and world history. Class organization early in the year found Fahan tapping the gavel, Schroeder second in command, and Schneckloth juggling words and figures. Mrs. Bernice Kuchel acted as class sponsor. The Dec. l7 Christmas program featured sophomores conducting a humorous quiz show. Following tradition, the sophomores put on the annual Blue-Jean Dance. Comfort, not appearance, was king for the evening as all 'buttons and bows' were out. Sophomores kept up their high ideals with spirited participation in all activities and creditable performances in the scholastic section.
