JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY The Junior Class started out the school year with eight members. Two having dropped out in the past years. Dorothy Diedrich who decided she would rather stay at home and Vivian Miller who left the first year to finish in Mason City. Those remaining are getting along very nicely. See if you don’t think so as I tell about them one by one. Marcella Krueger, known to most everyone as Marcy, plays as a guard on the basketball team. During the first week of school she decided she would rather do something different than go to school so she started out for '“Missouri.” But it wasn't long and she was back again. She does a good job of keeping up a discussion in Biology class. Pass the time you know. Next we have Mary Lifka, a quiet girl from the country. She also takes part in basketball. Studying keeps her time well occupied in school. World History seems to keep anybody busy. She is usually seen riding in a tan car and if you have ever seen her at the basketball games you’ll know who the car belongs to. Then comes John”Jack”Kuehn, he keeps himself busy playing basketball and baseball in which he does fine work. Besides this he also studies his lessons very thoroughly such as Latin. He’s one of the boys from school wearing a flashy red shirt. It seems to attract the eyes of a certain fresh- man girl. William Nack, better known as Billy, does not care much for sports but would rather study. He is always trying to keep Sociology and Literature class going with the help of a certain senior girl. He was never more re- lieved than when the last word of the Junior Class Play came. He waited for ten weeks or longer, Keith Bork, “Frank” to some and ”Poot to others, also takes part in basketball and baseball. I wonder if he knows how much better he looks when he keeps his hair combed? Probably that blonde freshman doesn’t mind though. Seems as though those freshmen girls really go for the red shirts in the Junior Class. Shirley May, who is known to her school mates as a quiet type of girl is always full of fun. She is a wiz in her subjects expecially in Latin. She is also a substitute guard on the basketball team. Maxine Nitcher, who plays forward on the basketball team, is also one of Grafton’s “Good Cheerleaders.” She always seems to be gazing in one direction and that is out Southwest of Grafton. Could it be some handsome lad from out in that direction that interests her? Lowell Schultz, known in school as “Ole,” plays basketball and goes out for other sports. I wonder why he is always on time for school. Most likely it’s his studies that brings him there. Or could it be a certain sophomore girl behind him waiting for him to come every morning. You know she al- ways has her Geometry done.
