Thomas Priddy presided as president, George Ollare as vice-president, and Jeannette Stanton as secretary-treasurer. Fred Gilles acted as our Junior Class reporter. Thomas Priddy and Agatha Bethel were elected members of the Student Council from the Junior Class. During the first part of the year the Juniors staged a “get-together party. An enjoyable evening was spent playing games and dancing. During February the Juniors tendered a most elaborate dance at the Hadley Town Hall, the most memorable social event of the school year. Also during February several agents visited the Junior Class to display high school rings. The class unanimously voted for a ring displayed by the Treasure-Craft ring agent. In April, an impromptu square dance and party was held by the Juniors. The Juniors secured the Hadley Town Hall for their social events, and the grand success of the parties was doubled by the pleasant and attractive setting the hall made. We appreciate the kindness of the Hadley Supervisor who so graciously let us use the hall. George Ollare, an outstanding hero and ambitious pupil made history for the school and the class when he swallowed a thumb tack in French II during the latter part of the school year. Mr. Griffin was our advisor. Throughout the year Mr. Griffin has proven very helpful, and it has been a pleasure to work with him. The remainder of the Juniors have also helped in establishing the Junior Class and belonged to various school activities, too numerous to mention here. Ten

HIGH LIGHTS Oil the morning of April 14, at the early hour of six-thirty, all of us came hurry- ing to the waiting bus with many people watching the start-off. Twenty-one Seniors ventured on this trip with two chaperones, Miss Frasier and Mr. Griffin, and two bus drivers, Mr. Enos Johnson and Mr. Seymour Naatz. On the exciting morning of the take-off, the chaperones came running to the bus about twenty minutes late. After we got started, at least an hour was spent in identifying each other in Easter outfits. The first morning passed very quickly, as everyone was eating most of the time. By the time we reached New York City all were watching eagerly for the skyscrapers which we soon spied with many “ohs” and “ahs.” After depositing our baggage at the Hotel Taft, most of the girls went shopping and the boys went to the Empire State Building. Later almost everyone went to the show and then to bed, as we were all exhausted after the day’s excitement. The next day on the bus from New York City to Washington, one would have seen some queer sights, such as: Don Stanton snoozing with his head in one seat and his feet in the other; Emalou Barber and Esther Baker shakily applying makeup; and our chaperone, Air. Griffin sound asleep and fighting an imitation spider which he thought was alive, only to discover that that stylish young miss, Jeanne Hawk, was keeping up to the minute by wearing the latest in fashion jewelry. During the next three days we saw the Arlington Memorial Cemetery, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, Franciscan Monastery, The Capitol, the new Supreme Court Building, Smithsonian Institute, and Mount Vernon. Many of us visited the Wash- ington Monument on Easter morning. When we were going back to the hotel in a taxi we saw the President of the United States on his way to church. Two of our evenings in Washington were spent at an amusement park, Glen Echo. We all went on the roller coaster, midway, pretzel, whip, merry-go-round and many other things. On the way from Washington to Philadelphia, each did his share of sleeping. Every Senior was anxious to reach home the next day as we were pretty fagged out. That trip will be remembered by everyone for years to come! In the words of one of the Seniors “the trip was a vacation earned by twelve years of study.” But the trip does not end the year. Bv the time this annual is printed we shall probably be taking our final exams, and after they have been passed many of us will call ourselves quits with formal education; others of us will go on to other schools. Some of us will take jobs around Luzerne; others will leave for greener pastures. But, years from now, we shall all look back and remember four short, imperfect, but enjoyable years. Nine

(The .Sophomore Class When the Sophomore Class held its first meeting under the supervision of the faculty advisor, Miss Doris Allerdice, the following officers were elected: President, Martha Stanton, vice-president, Alice Groombridge; secretary-treasurer, Ona Thomas. At a meeting last year, Scott Hayes and Martha Stanton had been elected Student Council representatives. In the middle of the year, the class decided to learn parliamentary procedure by conducting weekly meetings according to parliamentary rules of order. Several students belong to Glee Club and Newspaper Club. Almost every pupil has some extra-curricular activity. Scott Hayes is the Editor-in-Chief of the school newspaper. At the Ice Carnival held this winter, Jack Tunney won the mile skating race for boys. He is also on the baseball and soccer teams. Carlton Wendell is on the soccer team. Dud Gilbert was assistant-manager of the baseball team and he did a good job. This class has improved since its Freshman year. Next year we hope we can say the same—and all the years thereafter.
