JUNIORS The officers for the Junior Class were: President, Paul Ulrich; Vice President, Don Mosman; Secretary and Treasurer, Beverly Pellerin; and Class Representative, Paul Ulrich. The activities of the Junior Class were centered mostly around the annual Junior Prom which was held April 16 in the gymnasium. A spring setting furnished the very picturesque scene. A1 Swart; furnished the music. The class has also sponsored several after-game dances. The class decreased from 41 members in the Freshman year to 27 members in the Junior year. New members this year are Phyllis Schuster and Edward Best. SOPHOMORES The Sophomore Class was represented by fifty students. Officers elected for the class were: President, Allen Bartlett; Vice President, Charles Conrad; Secretary and Treasurer, Jo Ann Harshman; and Council Representative, Clifford Gantt. The entire class was under the supervision of Mr. Bancroft. The main event of the year was the traditional Freshman-Sophomore party spon- sored by the Sophomore class and held at the beginning of the year for the purpose of initiating and welcoming the Freshman into the Senior High School. FRESHMEN The Freshman activities were few in number this year because the class was divided among three Home Rooms: Home Economics, Agriculture and General Science. The Girls’ officers for the first semester were: President, Barbara Ness; Vice President, Norma Crossland; Secretary, Pat Davidson; and Treasurer, Nancy Manning. Second semester: President, Norma Crossland; Vice President, Nancy Manning; Secretary, Barbara Ness, and Treasurer, Barbara Dana. Officers for the smaller Boys’ Group were: President, Don Hallanger; Vice President, John Cock- burn; Secretary and Treasurer, Kenneth Williams. The larger Boys’ Group elected no officers, as the F. F. A. activities proved enough. The Junior Beacon was edited for the third year by the Freshman Class. Officers were: Editor, John Cockburn; Assistant Editor, Barbara Ness; Business Manager, Pat Davidson. The remaining members of the class acted as reporters. The Girls’ Home Room held a Christmas and a Valentine party. The Girls also sponsored an after-school dance. A good time was reported by all.

A taxi slid to a stop at the curb; the door opened and out stepped Charlotte McLennan. Her hair was fixed as I had always known it, and it had made her famous. She was in Hollywood now and after a long hard struggle she was one of ten top stars. I watched her go by and saw that she was going to the premier performance of “Hot Tamalie” starring the love of the nation, Kathleen Kirby. My companion and I decided we would like to see that so we ventured in. We stood at the entrance and looked around to see if we could recognize anyone. We crawled over several people and finally I dropped into the seat beside Betty Cooper. We exchanged talk, and during the course of the evening I learned that she was very happy and that she and her hubby had moved into a cute little house in the city. I also learned that Eva Newman was P. E. instructor at the largest high school in the dty and certainly liked her job. I asked her if she knew what Nadine Schuster was doing now and she said that Nadine had a job with the Chrysler Corporation driving new cars so that they would be broken in by the time the customers received them. Sounded interesting to me. She said lone Sawyer was a model at Macy’s in New York City. Pretty good. Alyce Tastad was a demonstrator for Coty's cosmetics and traveled all over and was able to see a lot of country. I was also surprised to hear that Betty Logstrom was the private secretary for Cecil B. De Mille. As the evening was thinning out into dawn, and I was getting terribly tired, I told my companion to take me home. In the cab, we turned the radio on and got the rebroadcast of “The Woman’s Angle” by Dorothy McDaniel. So Dorothy was a woman commentator! She announced that Barbara Tedford was doing a wonderful job spreading good will all over South America. I remembered Barbara had a mar- velous knowledge of Latin, Spanish, and other languages. After Dorothy had signed off for the night, a man announced that an exclusive dress shop was opening in the near future, and for the women of the city to be sure and watch for the date. It was to be under the sole management of Eunice Pruehs. When I finally flopped into bed, I thought over all I had seen that day, and I had to admit as you will have to admit, that the Senior Class of 1943 turned out much better than anyone expected.
