JUNIORS When the green “freshies” of 1941 I cgan to tackle the first rudiments of high school life, it seemed that they were destined to he a unique class from that day on. Organization was soon achieved under the leadership of the short hut mighty Henry Hales. President, Shirley Biggs and Zonahel kingery, Vice-Presidents, Aileen McTann, Secretary, and Gene Mathews, Treasurer. These officers, assisted by Mrs. Greve, chairman of the ( lass spon¬ sors, successfully planned a Halloween party and two general meetings. Members of the class started dramatic careers as characters in “Tattercoatsthe Junior High Play, and in a student production of “The Covered Wagon . The end of that first year found them eagerly anticipating their rank as “upper ' ’ classmen in the ensuing years. They had made the grade! The first achievement of the dignified sophomores was a rec¬ ord-breaking nut sale replenish¬ ing their coffer, managed by the newly elected class officers with Bette Jurincic as President, George Bartfai, Vice-President. Norma Davidson, Secretary, Dick Jack- son, Treasurer, and Mr. Beed the class sponsor. Jack king, the “Nut king ’, and Norma Buchfuehrer, “Nut Queen ’, received prizes of War Stamps for their efforts in the sale. That the students were defi¬ nitely becoming in evidence around school may be exemplified by the fact that they served as members and officers of the vari¬ ous clubs, Penelope George ' s recognized vocal achievements, the presentation of Patricia Bernier at at Orchestra Concert, participa¬ tion in the Freshman-Sophomore Play, and the capabilities of John Sikora, Henry Hales, and Joe Ku- koy as athletes. The approach of spring heralded the traditional Sophomore Hop and a night of fun and frolic. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS P. Minniear. Secretary; B. Leith, Treasurer; Mr. Masters; R. Wodtke, President; P. Remier, Vice-president. Our ventures this year include such things as participating in the sale of W ar Bonds and Stamps, salvaging waste paper, and tin, and supporting the Bed Cross drive. We congratulate Zonahel kingery, the first Lew Wallace student to go beyond the city, for winning third place in the state meet of the American Legion Oratoric al contest. The juniors are preparing for tomorrow! —Bette Jurincic. 25
