JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY Fourteen freshmen entered Center High Schoo] in the fall of nineteen hundred twenty-seven in an attempt to further their education. This class consisted of five girls and nine boys. Our teachers who were selected that year were Mr. and Mrs. Osborn and Mrs. Hanson. Of course we were green freshmen, but we didn’t care for all freshmen are known to be green. The next year, however, the number of members in our class. was diminished. Marvle Palmer had gone West for her health, and Lyle Yoder had also left us. Verda Gingerich was with us only the first semester. Lloyd Bender, who had been a previous member also left us, diminishing our class to the number of ten, but our loss was lessened somewhat when Earl Amelon joined us. That year we had only two teachers, namely: Mr. and Mrs. Osborn. With the help of the freshmen, we presented a Freshman-Sophomore play known as “A Perplexing Situation” which proved to be a success. ; In the year of nineteen hundred and twenty-nine and nineteen hundred and thirty, the class was enlarged to the number of eleven. Lloyd Bender again returned and joined the class of gay, young juniors. Martha Swartzendruber, who had started her high school work in Goshen College, also joined our class. Earl Amelon left us about the middle of the term. A new instructor was chosen, namely: Miss Krueger, and with the help of Mr. and Mrs. Osborn we tried to do our work well.
