JUNIORS ON TRIAL Judge Deland: Order in the court! Order in the court! First case. Senior: Your Honor, we, the Senior class, wish to bring a case against the Junior class to decide which is the most active class in school. Judge Deland: A very unusual case, but let us hear what the defendant has to say. Take the stand, please. Junior: Your Honor, I wish to take this opportunity to prove to the Seniors that our class has been the most active class in the Georgetown Township High School. Our class has for its leaders, Warren Sprouls, Charles Nagy, Fred Haggerty, and we are represented in the Student Council by Betty Flynn, Bernice Gardner, Charles Dukes, and Dean Patterson. Judge Deland: But don't the other classes have just as capable leaders? Junior: But we have so many of our own activities, and participate in the majority of the school activities, that they make our class more outstanding. First, we gave a very successful production of the play The Saturday Evening Ghost in which our capable actors and actresses Betty Flynn, Charles Dukes, Charles Haworth, Warren Clark, Helen Henry, Clarice Rundel, Walter Lopinski, Dorothy Richards and Lloyd Hewitt participated. Then, tco, we edited a weekly page in the Georgetown News, which was carried on entirely by the Juniors under the supervision of Alice Rees and editorship of Helen Henry. The girls have all worked very hard selling candy and chewing gum at noon each day and at all the home games, so that everyone could enjoy it. Of course, we enjoyed the profit on the candy, but this was used to give a better banquet for the Seniors. We have twenty members of our class in the band. Consequently, we make up practically one-half of the Band. Also, we have a Junior boy, Warren Clark, as the Drum Major of the Band, and a Junior girl, Bernice Gardner, as Majorette of the Twirling Corps. In the field of sports, we have quite a few boys who played in the spotlight, and also quite a few who always saw to it that the bench was kept warm. Joe Hill, Fred Haggerty, Bob Williams, Sam Austin, Joe Katavich, Walter Kazelas, Jack Biggs, and Dwight Sherer did a fine job in the spotlight, and as a result, all of them received a letter in football. Fred Haggerty and Joe Hill were elected next year's football co-captains. Also, in basketball, Fred Haggerty and Joe Hill received buffaloes, and Junior Williamson, Bob Williams, Joe Katavich, Walter Kazelas, Charles Nagy, and Dean Patterson received letters for their outstanding work. I think that sums up briefly, the most outstanding activities of our class during 1939 and 1940. Judge Deland: Do the Seniors have any correction or any comment to make upon the report? If not, the report will stand as it is. I think the facts have proved to us sufficiently that the Junior Class is decidedly the most active class in school. Have you anything to say before you are sentenced? Junior: N-No, sir. But— Judge Deland: I sentence you to three month's vacation! Case dismissed.
