This was the first year the Junior class ever put on a play for profit. The name of the play was The Moonstone, a mystery in three acts. The ieads were played by Norma Spake, Reita Barge, Henry Pugsley, and Curtis Horne. The junior prince and princess for homecoming were John Wallace and Janet Cleveland.
