In September, 1933, the largest class in the history of the Junction City Junior-Senior' High School was enrolled. Like all oth-er seventh grade classes it was scorned by the students above and kindly admonished by its teach- ers to study hard. But in a short time, by its willing coclceration in intramurals and other school activities., it won the respect of the upper classes and, by its high grades, it won the praises of the teachers. Now that the 1933-1934 school tum is almost over, these seventh glade students are beginning to lift their heads a little higher and to take notice of their surrounnsngs. Now and then they receive a kind look and smile from the juniors and seniors, but their greatest satisfac- tion comes from knowing that they vrill be regarded wxtn awe by 'he seventh grade class of next year. At l2 o'clock noon on the first Cay of school 153 of the 160 seventh graders. running loose in the halls of old junior-senior high, were lost. The other seven were safely accounted for by older brothers and sisters, who, much to their embarrassment when confronted by fellow classmen, were putting' into execution parental instructions received before leaving home on that fatal day' of Sept. 11. Following the procedure of the up- per classes, because they knew no better, the seventh grade convened Cif so conservative a term may be ap- plied to the unorganized body that it wash and elected officers-Tom Martin, presidentg Mayselle Shilling, vice-presidentg Sally Sumner, secre- tary-treasurer, and Robert Weary, pailiamentarian. Even though these seventh grade youngsters are thrown into daily contact with the statliness and reserve of the upper classmen, their un- restrained vitality forces them to re- sort to such annoying' pranks as darting' through the halls busily -en- gaged in a game of tag or dodging follow students while on roller skates or throwing pap-er wads and snow- balls or plugging locks or copping the choice seats at the basketball games. Try as they have to assume the sophistication of their superiors, they slid back the distance they had g3ined when at Christmas time they wrote confidential letters to dear old Santa Clause and spent innumberable evenings browsing' around in the toy departments. Seriously though, the seventh grade is to be congratulated upon achievements made in extra-cur1'icu- lsr activities. In intramurals, the Cc-ops, under the captalncy of Doris Crawford, were named volleyball champions in their tournament, de- feating eighth grade teams composed cf larger and stronger girls. Here's an orchid to you. In dramatics and music there are three. Geraldine Vineyard, as Fairy Moonbeam, appearing at the summons of the magic ring, and Mayselle Shilling anl Marjorie Miller, as Sprites of the Night, offering the Dance Grotesque, carried off honors in the junior high operetta, Prin- cess Chrysanthemum. Again and again the seventh grades will be remembered for the co-operation. loyalty and support they considered a requirement punishable by the severest of means if neglected. They set an example in completely filling their part of the cheering sec- tions at all athletic contests. Joe 'Roe-snfield led them in their lusty

Dropping, only one league fracas, and that to Clay Center, four time league champions, the Blue Jays completed the '33 football season and chalked up second place for them- :elves in the North Central Kansas League and finished the best season since '24, Although Junction lost only one league game, two losses were obtained in non-league frays. In those non-league games 'he Jays were overpowered by the Manhattan Wildcats, who outplayed them to the tune of a 12-6 victory. Wichita North was Junction's next Waterloo, when these Redskins, who, although out- nlayed in the first half by the Jays, by the rise of strong reserves caused Junction to surrender a 19-0 game. , The Other Side! Besides having an exciting time while playing' in the game itself, the boys had other experiences which were not accounted for in numerous sport articles, which followed each ,game in the Daily Union and the Blue Jay. This writer snooped around and about and found much concerning the inside story of a football h-ero's life. More fun! It seems as though it has always been a disputed fact as to what happens when ai team goes into a huddle. What do they talk about? It was finally determined after much inquiry that in a Blue Jay huddle Malcolm Tibbets and Emil Dalquest had lusty arguments as to which oi' the two had the larger feet. Well, there are four big points of argu- ment there! Boys Censor Risque Haprrenings. According to certain members of the team, Willard Jameson and George McKellar were considered the greatest lovers among them-oh! of course. outside the inevitabe Ed- wards! And did they have fun on these football trips that took them away from home to where people didn't know them! Oh. bov. oh, boy, oh, boy! Innumerabl-e things happened which cannot be printed, so members of the team state, but a few were finally censored and recounted, acoomanied by much mirth on the part of the participants. Alt Beloit, Bowles, Langvardt, and cute. J However, to go on with the story after being so rudely interrupt- ed, following the game, these three football heroes were sadly disappoint- ed for they had forgotten to bring along their tennis shoes and therefore could not display their skill to the young ladies. How heart rending! Score One for Tib. At Clay Cent-er, in a restaurant where the team went to eat their flll before the game, Malcolm Tibbets had a terrible tim-e of it as there was a blonde waitress who took a liking to 'tTib and got him all flustered. It is the Wichita trip, however, that will longest be remembered by the boys who went. Going down on the bus accompanied by Mr, Fletcher, Coach Shenk and Principal Vineyard, the boys became quite disturbed about the fact that the faculty occupied all the ,best seats and .gave the boys what remained. Their feelings on this subject became so aroused that they started their vocai apparatuses to working in order to torture th-e oth-er cruel occupants in the bus. These members of the faculty were not to be bother-ed. They had just heard the boys glee club the day bzforel Tut Peterson from all ob- servation was the best singer among' them. Paper Wads Plus Harmony? Finding their singing was of no avail, a. paper wad battle was next in line. Things were going pretty well until Coach Sh-efnk got swatted on the back of the neck and then and there the paper wad shooting' was quelled. If Snyder's big feet hadn't been so situated in the line of his cours-e, Crabtree says he would have made his first touchdown. During the game Let Bowles came pretty near being taken out when he told Tut to step in one of the opponent's face the next time he fell down. It seems as though Let's ir-e was aroused at something or other and he told this same player upon whose countenance he had wished Tut's size thirteen foot, to meet him after the game and perhaps they might be able to come to some agreement. Let declares he show-ed up at the appointed place following the game but that the other fellow didn't. At Chapman during the annual Irish-Jay Turkey day round-up, the Tibbets, McKellar, and Jameson each had four pictures taken in their football garb when Harry Trimble came are-und for pictures for the Pow Wow. It can readily be unedrstood why McKellar and Jameson would request four-.but is Malcolm hiding something? Must be that blonde wait- ress in Clay Center! Coach Saves the Day. At the football banquet a grand and glorious time was had. The only incident that seemed to detract from it was the fact that Tut Peterson, who is, according to himself, the best after dinner speaker on the team, was not allowed to make the address of the evening. Coach defer- red because he feared Tut would talk too long! 'Twas rumored that Rex Gish pulled this one after the banquet. The car was nearing town. Rex pond-ers quietly and then asks- I shay where are we? We are between seventh and eighth streets, says the driver. Never mind the details, says Rex, What town is this? Fairy tales record th-e daring deeds of errant knights and history recalls the valor of our fallen brave -so shall we recall the adventurous exploits of our brave and errant, reckless, gallant warriors, whose time of peace has come and who, now in retrospect, the past recall. The record of games won and lost, although of first rank, is not the true gauge of Shenk's Wonder Boys fEds. Note: They wondered what it was all about when they started and how they could have dropped the Clay Center contest when they nnishedb. Jays Trounne Miltonvale The first game, with Miltonvale, was irregular in interest, lacking the smoothing influence of experience, the Jamesons drives on spinners, the Peterson plunges of brilliance. The Jays won 6-0. a little bruised. a little wiser. Said the Daily Union: Although scoring only one touch- down during the game, the Junction team showed much unexpected power, both offensively and defensively. ' t'The score came early in the sec- ond quarter. Wtih the ball on their 48-yard line the Jays started their drive. Riley made a '7-yard gain over guard and McKellar broke off tackle
