CLASS of 1942 0 This year the thoughts of the luniors naturally turned to filling the class treasury. We had to earn some money to give our treasurer some- thing to do. The year was started off with a bang by a get acquainted dance. We gave every kind of sale imaginable - but that wasn't workl The real experience came with the Iunior Play, The Night of Ianuary l6. The cast rehearsed every school night from seven to ten. CThis ex- plains all the snores in the lunior classesl There was so much to do and so little time in which to do it that everyones temper was worn to the last thread. At last the big night arrived, and we'll never forget itl Can you imagine Lorene Faass as the defendant at a murder trial and Harry Wilson, as the District Attorney, trying to convict her? We don't blame the jury for bringing in a favorable verdict. Then came the most thrilling event of the yearl l 3 the Dinner Dance. Eight persons were chosen to decide which theme we should use. Many dif- ferent ideas were presented but the students chose Hawaii. Hawaii, with its mountains, palm' trees, pineapple plantations, and moonlight shin- ing on the ocean waves, was very beautifully done and proved to be a perfect closing of the year's activities.

CLASS of 1943 The Sophomore Class year was opened by the election of our class officers at our first meeting. Our hopes of sweet revenge were dashed to the ground by the discontinuance of the initiation parties - but maybe it was for the good of all. Under the leadership of Miss Chynoweth we immediately foresaw our privilege of being big shots in the senior high for three years. The future would hold such interesting events as a Iunior Prom, class plays, and the really big un- dertaking of editing an Annual. Gur first project was a successful roller skating party at Ramona Gardens. lt was followed by the February Frolic, a sport dance with Vic- trola music and a bang up floor show. It's still a mystery to us how no broken bones resulted from the efforts of one of our young ladies to give the gym floor a truly royal waxing. The daily routine of the Sophs was pleasant- ly interrupted by fire drills, interesting assem- blies, parties, and some good movies Qthanks to Mr. Wardl. We will spend many happy hours in remin- iscence of these days of 1941. lt is with joyous anticipation that we look forward to the attain- ment of our highest goal - our graduation in '43.
