So it is upon you Juniors that the responsibility of maintain- ing the fame of the Lion family devolves. The Class of 1940 have attempted to leave the Lion home in a better condition than they found it. But judging from the leadership of the officers and the outstanding activities of many other juniors, we Seniors expect a splendid record of you Juniors. The Juniors showed their stuff to the entire school in their assembly program which they gave Friday, October 27. Mary Lou Nelson, President of the class, presided and introduced the other officers-Vice-President, Ruthie Russellg Secretary, Eu- genia Green, Treasurer, Mary Lou Elliott, Student Council Representative, Howard Sutherland, and Head Sponsor, Mr. Gillum. The Girls' Trio, composed of Ruth Hill, Helen June Douglas, and Martha Dooley sang Oh, You Crazy Moon and Over the Rainbow . Elgin Woody next sang The Lamp is Low so well that the audience demanded an encore. His en- core was If You Should Ever Leave. Last but far from least, Ted Conley gave a very novel and interesting talk on drums, accompanied with demonstrations which p-roved to be extremely well liked by the audience. Lula Bahnmaier Betty Jane Banning Bonnie Jean Barnes Elizabeth Bigsby Joe Bleakley Jean Boardman Hazel Boerkircher Doris Brewster Catherine Brown Virginia Carter Arthur Cattlett, Jr. Dorothy Cooper Howard Creel, Jr. Kathryn Deihl Billy Joe Dill The dramatic ability of the Junior class was demonstrated in the Junior play June Mad . A Hne performance it was too. Every member of the cast was elected into National Honorary Thespians. These are Susie Mae Wilkerson, Charles Kassinger, Betty Leibbrand, Dan Ragle, Clifford Bates, Eugenia Green, Pauline Reese, Howard Sutherland, Lee Robbins, Dick Dauber- man, Doris Lee Jackson and Gloria Goff. The action of the entire play took place in the living room of the Woods's home in Lynbrook. Looking ahead into next year, we find the following juniors in executive positions in the Hi-Y: Billy Joe Dill, presidentg and Howard Sutherland, secretary. The G. R. elected Betty Liebbrand president, Mary Lo Nelson vice-president, and Jane Miller secretary. Next year we expect to see su-h sport stars as Junius Penny, Billy Stowitts, Gordon Stucker and Carl Hird again. Alice Jean Lemon and Clifford Bates starred on the debat team this year and did exceptionally well. Bill Conboy was o the first team. So the junior class only need look for a fourt to have a full table. Pag

l s Elma 0 194.2 Officers-Back Row: Mason, Nelson. Front Row: Miller, Falk- enstein, Wheeler AKE a look at the leaders of the Sophomore class: Pres- ident, Max Falkensteing Vice President. John Mason: Secretary, Jane Miller: Treasurer, Lois Wheeler, and Student Council Representative, Stanley Nelson. Gone are the days of the awkward and clumsy underclass- men. This is 1940 and we are faced with a stream-lined version of a Sophomore. Sophistication is the by-word of our little brothers and sisters. We should be glad that the sophomores have at last grown up: no longer are they noted for the pranks they play, but for the good work which they are doing by coop- erating with the rest of the student body. Cooperation is the key word of the sophomores. Always willing to do their part: on the athletic field, in band, orchestra, glee club and at the school parties. Here is a class which is Will- ing to pull together for the good of the whole school. When one becomes a sophomore he begins to feel more and more a part of the school. The sophomores have no play or prom, but they are expected to put on an assembly some time during the school year. It was one of the b-est assemblies this year. There's real talent to be found among the sophomore class. Sophomores, as a whole, are fairly well satisfied with them- selves. Never-the-less their Junior year and the increased pres- tige which that goal promises, is looked forward to by all.
