At the beginning of the 1947 school term the eighth grade selected Bill Carlson as presi- dent, Robert Richards as vice president and June Christman as secretary. With Mr. McMunn as home room teacher and adviser, the class planned their 1947 year as leaders in the junior High School in classes and activities. This group of students proved itself to be ex- ceptionally outstanding in scholarship. They boasted an honor roll of the following students: Edgar Mueller, Bill Carlson, June Christman, Gail Bergad and Gloria Staymates. While the eighth grade Worked hard they also took time out for pleasure and recreation. Junior High had an excellent basketball team this year with Bill Carl- son, Bob Unrue, Bob Richards, and Edwin An- thony contributing their bit. Two energetic cheer- leaders from this class were Betty Astley and Arlene Kemerer. These girls helped to urge the team on to fourteen victories. Many students from this class attended the senior high socials. They also had at few of their own parties, one of which was a skating party. Excellent participation was shown in assembly programs and eighth grade leadership was greatly appreciated. The girls in the class took an active part in the Junior Girls Chorus and worked dili- gently the entire year. Both, boys and girls, took an active part in the exciting intramural games. The class is looking forward with great an- ticipation to next fall when they will take their places as Freshman in their First year as high school students. fha Cgiqkfk ra e OFFICERS Prerident ...........

William Stubbs, Robert McFarland and Maxine McCormick were of great assistance to their class adviser, Miss Wiley, as President, Vice-President and Secretary-Treasurer respec- tively. The daily routine, activities and social life of their hrst year of junior high school were full of thrills for all of these eager seventh graders. Credit is due them for their contributions to all phases of school life. The main ones, scholar- ship and athletics had a generous share of these students. Nancy Kooser, Edward Siegle, Mar- lene Gordon, and Carol Rainey were on the honor roll. As basketball drew keenest interest in junior high too, they had fine future Lettermen. Gerald Gongaware, Robert Schiavo, Robert McFarland, Donald Good and Edward Siegle dribbled, jumped and shot like future champions. We are looking forward to having them on the varsity as they have made a fine start. ffm Seventh ra e OFFICERS Prexident ...,........ WILLIAM S'rUBBs Vice-Prefident ,....

Nancy Benninger, Maxine McCormick, Joanne Johns, Joyce Williams and Marlene An- thony got their experience for future high school pep meetings. As a group, they looked very promising. Always active, this class cooperated with all the school socials and had a few of their own. Skating was ideal fun to them, so they planned a skating party with the eighth grade. Music was another attraction. The band and girls' chorus enrolled many of them. They insure an even larger and more excellent music future for Irwin High School. Junior F. H. A., also, enlisted many girls who were interested in home making. With a year of training and experience be- hind them they are ready to move on to greater responsibility next year.
