All hail tomorrow’s Juniors! We certainly have contributed our share toward the activities of M.M.H.S. and are quite proud of our part. Class officers were elected in the fall. Let us present: Corrcll Nash, president; Hobart Cowles, vice-president; Frances Frcscott, secretary; and last but by no means least, our treasurer, Bill Brown. Remember the fun we had at the theater party in October? And the one in the spring when wc watched the adventures and escapades of Huck Finn? Next in sight comes our smiling athletes. Both football and basketball benefited by our classmates’ brawn. 1 he Scholarship Banquet was attended by seven sophomores: Milton Demos, Jack Jones, Perry Quayle, Virginia Dean, Marian Brainard, Marie Zeman, and Frances Trescott. Our class dance was one of the events of the year. Even the upperclassmen seemed to have a good time. G. R. and Hi-Y and the Mixed Chorus are other Associations in which the sophomores rook an active part. [ 13] Frances Trescott

In an assembly program we re- ceived a message of welcome and encouragement from the Seniors. Sulfermg the usual trials and tribulations of a Freshman class we came out on top with our class well represented in the Scholarship Club and a group of promising athletes. The main event of that year was our most successful dance. Richard Miller was our president; William Rose, vice-president; Lois Wellman, secretary; Jack Kuhn, treasurer. As the result of the class election when we were Sophomores, Rita Lazaronv was presi- dent; William Rose, vice-president; Elain Pasco, secretary; Henrietta Krauter, treasurer. We sponsored a most festive Christmas dance. Two of our classmates became “officials” in the Scholarship Club; Richard Miller was president, anti Rita Lazarony secretary. We con- cluded our Sophomore year with one glorious class picnic at Township Park. As Juniors we started the year by planning ways and means of filling the class treasury. Selling magazine subscriptions was our first step. This was furthered by selling candy at noons and at school games during the year. The sale of polishing cloths was taken up last, netting us a profit of $50 with which to start our Senior year. This year our athletes came through with flying colors. We had three class members on the Champion Basketball Team: Ray Eckerle, Richard Miller, and William Rose. Activities included a Junior dance, a theater party, and last but not least—the PROM— April 21. Officers for the year were: William Rose, president; Lois Wellman, vice-president; Ray Eckerle, secretary; Jack Kuhn, treasurer; Richard Miller, Prom Chairman. Rita Lazakony, Marian Bailey

We may be “Freshies”, and the upperclassmen may think they can boss us; hut no one can down our spirit. When this year was started off with a rip-roaring skating party, the Freshies were very much m evidence. Football season found several of the fellows reporting for practice every night. Our members composed the greater part of the second team, anti one or two outstanding players played quite a bit on the first team. One night, the latter part of October, wc celebrated with a Scavenger Hunt. Wc cer- tainly “did the town” the night and collected everything from dead mice to pop bottles. Cider and doughnuts climaxed the evening. During our victorious basketball season, the outstanding players on the second team were none other than Freshies. Stan Babic and Don Wickert even captured a berth on the varsity team that played in the district tournament. The Class of ’43 took advantage of the nice wintry weather in January and had an ultra- modern sleigh-ride. We toured the countryside with two hay racks attached to a Farmall tractor. The hot chili and crackers proved to be very welcome refreshments. We were hosts to the rest of the high school at our Valentine's Dance. It was the best dance of the year—just ask any Frosh! Our class was well represented in all the other extra curricular activities, such as band, chorus, and G.R.; and wc also “held our own” scholastically. The class officers responsible for our veiy successful year were: president, Dudley Rose; vice-president, Janice Lange; secretary, Jean Stimpert; treasurer, Rex Hoffacker. Miss Kelly was our class advisor. [14]
