JUNIOR HISTORY After a three month vacation, the class of “52” returned to work. Having attained the lofty height of “upperclassmen”, the juniors were ably guided in an active first semester by Dick Ashdon, Presi- dent; Jim Myers, Vice-President; Georgina Dunn, Secretary; and Helen Frandsen, Treasurer. Further proving their worth as “upperclass- men”, two class members served as all-school officers. Judy Stem was Public Service Chief and Jack Burchett, Sanitary Commissioner. Judy was also elected secretary of the Student Council. Starting the year out right in sports, Harris Everett, Melvin Basler, Gerald Merrill, Lester Altoft, Al Belsito and Jack Drum won letters for their grid-iron achievements. In another division, cross-country, Jim Wingerden and Jim Myers won letters. The captain of the cheerleading squad was a junior, Marian Pierce. Also on the squad was Marietta Haywood. Marion also served as a mem- ber of the home-coming queen’s court. Two other girls, Peggy Schliess and Ann Miller, showed skill as drum majorettes. At the annual Ag-He Exposition ten boys won trips to the International Livestock Show in Chicago. Three of these, Ken Pranshka, Russel Golden, and Dick Cotant, were juniors. On November 10 the junior class sponsored the “Hillbilly Hop” dance with Georgina Dunn as general chairman. Basketball season rolled around and after final eliminations, Lynn Beadle, Jim Myers, Dick Cas- tlelein, Herbert Beadle, Al Belsito, Jim Winger- den, Gerald Merrill and Ed Bush found them- selves on the Varsity team. At the end of the season Lynn Beadle was voted a spot on the con- ference team, while all of the boys won awards. When the first semester drew to a close, scho- lastic honors went to Jean Ann Myers and Doro- thea Trinklein for all-A records. In March mem- bership in the National Honor Society was awarded to eight deserving juniors. They were Elaine Reinhardt, Joyce Will, Jean Ann Myers, Margery Cordes, Helen Frandsen, Mary Lou Kaechele, Dorothea Trinklein and Edward Bush. On the political scene a spirited election started the action of the second semester off with a “bang”. Several candidates were out to win, but the final ballot showed that the victors were Ger- ald Merill in the head spot; Dick Ashdon, as- sistant; Marietta Haywood, the pen pusher; and Dorothea Trinklein, custodian of the cash. When Spring finally made an entrance, it found the class members enveloped in spring sports. Junior play practice, and plans for the an- nual J-Hop. In baseball, Lynn Beadle, Ernie Tooker, Al Belsito, Jim Myers, Russell Keech and Kenneth Pranshka were the returning lettermen. Among the returning junior trackmen were Jack Burchett, David McGIocklin, and Verlyn Knowles. On April 13 class members bid an audience welcome to the lamasary of Shangri-La, high in the Tibetan mountains, when they presented ‘Lost Horizon” as the junior play. The juniors then turned their attention to the annual J-Hop, and after much discussion and hard work, they turned out a party that will long be remembered. As the semester drew to a close, everyone found it hard to realize that there was only one more year at H.H.S. But they parted, happily viewing the months of vacation, and then the return to school, with fall marking the last step on the journey to the top.
