Junior Class WE find the Junior Class quite a different group from the green Freshmen who entered the high school on September 4, 1934. From the leadership of a boy in that year, we find the class in the hands of Dena Otis as president with the help of Bud Edwards as vice-president, Rose Ellen Foley as secretary, and Paul Shively as treasurer. Under the sponsorship of Miss Schofield for all three years, the class has jogged merrily along. On March 19, 1937, they presented “The Night Cry,” a three-act mystery comedy. On Friday, April 16, a hay ride was given for the class preceding the annual Bam Dance for the entire high school. On May 15, the class sponsored the Annual Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom, using the theme of a vineyard, which made a beautiful background for the formal dance of the year.

Freshman Class SEPTEMBER 8 saw the arrival of a group of freshies who walked for the first time, up the steps of the Laurel High School. They elected Wilbur DeNittis as president, Lela Gowen as vice president, Ella Mae Coombs as secretary, and Charles Shay as treasurer. Miss Margaret Taylor was their advisor to help them over the rough spots during the year. The major activity of this class was a Saint Patrick s Day party given March 17. This party enabled them to use their well known color, “green.” The gymnasium was elaborately decorated carrying out the traditional shamrock, by using a color scheme of green and white.
