Senior History The years roll by Leaving behind, Some fond memories And oerhao6 good-byes. But we the seniors Filled with youth and pride, Will take the future In our stride. Remembering our year, as 1941, But looking forward to what Is yet to come. Yes, 1941 has always been a goal for which we have been striving to meet, ever since we were mischievous youngsters In grade school. Now it 1s here. No longer has It the sparkle and brightness that It once possessed, but It does mark the finishing of one period and the beginning of another. This year s senior class Is proud of the record It has built up In these four years. The olass of '41 was outstanding in athletics. Basketball, football, baseball, and track will all have many boots to fill. To prove how versatile the class was, we had representatives in every outside activity in the high school. Band and glee club will certainly feel the loss, because of the many fine musicians that wll] not return to their ranks. One of our greatest achievements was the successful prom given In our Junior year. Townspeople are still remarking on the ambition and ever-lasting pep those Juniors had. We began working Immediately when school commenced, and never stooped until we had written finis to the occasion. As our reward, later In the spring, we chartered a bus and gaily trouped to Milwaukee. We saw all the interesting sights, and generally let it be known that we were having a good time. Forensics too, was of great Interest to several members of the class. From the freshmen year on, people from our class have won honors, not only in local contests, but further along the way as well. The honor roll is looked upon with respect by old and young alike. In this our class has always excelled. Our representation has always been above par, and may we also at this time take off our hats to those deserving people who received five A's while carrying five sub- jects. Indeed the class can hold its head high and point with pride to the fine high school record it is leaving behind. Thirty-one freshmen enrolled in the fall of '37. Walter Cox was the only one to leave us at the end of the first year. During the sophomore year, Mildred Borchert, Juanita Ferron,Doris Gerbltz,Eugenia Gerbltz,Vernon Gerth, Irene Vellema,Ruth Sell, William Keel, and Harley Welnhelmer entered school. Jerome Schoepke Joined our ranks in our Junior year, but Evelyn Koehler, Fredrick Martens, Howard Schultz, Helen Vorphal, and Mary Woehrmann did not return. Patrick Stanton, Evangeline Bramer, and Harley Welnhelmer did not resume their studies in the senior year. Betty Cannlff was added to the senior class. We have had four of our best years together,sharing our troubles, humorous incidents, and good times. Although we regret leaving Juneau High School, we leave it with the comforting thought that we have done something to help it along the long road of progress.
