The Junior Class Two important things happened in 1942. The Battle of Midway turned the tide of World War II, and those irreproachable jun- iors entered the immortal portals of G. H. S. for the first time as seventh graders. This year afforded us our first chance to dabble in politics, which resulted in the election of Bob Ronsky, presidentg Frank Boomhower, vice presidentg and Dick Whelpley, secretary- treasurerg as the executives of our struggling class. Came 1943 and another year at G. H. S. We had a few of our class parties, those for which we were so famous. The political big wigs this year were Dick Whelpley, presi- dentg Margaret Swartz, vice presidentg and Bob Ronsky, secretary-treasurer. We really got down to work in the field of dramatics with the presentation of Brass Tacks, in a school assembly. The Junior High party gave us our first taste of high school social life. Right here is where the complications set in, the startling fact stared us in the face--our first date. This was also the golden era of our Eagles. It was this year that the Eagles won the divisional championship by whipping Bula in a thriller. 1 lur first real taste of responsibility arrived when we became freshmen.
