inc seasons CLASS HISTORY By tlie second year of our stay in hicK school land, we liad advanced up the ladder of success far enough to move into more modern and more expensive quarters. We picked out a location on Sophomore Avenue. Our class officers, consisting of Maude Running as president. Paul Wozniczak as secretary, and Viola Tomko as treasurer, planned an eventful program for us. Many of us were luded in the cast of the musical comedy. Tune In . The basketball and track offered us opportunity to display our talent. Many athletic stars acted on the football field. The Debate Club received several young orators. The year ' s activity was climaxed by the Sophomore Hop in May. In spite of our extra- curricular activities, we had a remarkable showing on the honor roll. After maintaining a year ' s location on Sophomore Avenue, we were given the opportunity to move to Junior Park. Here the outlook of life was most enticing. Many social activities engaged our time. In November, the ring committee selected our class rings. Carefully selecting Chester Zadrozny as president, Ray Anderson as vice president, Melva Werlinich as secretary, and John Fall as treasurer, we experienced an active year. Our many fine actors and actresses came through with flying colors in the performances of Lady Spitfire . The success of the operetta, The Spanish Grandee , was due, in part, to l lie cooperation of the Juniors. Much enjoyment was found at both of the Junior dances, one of which was sponsored with the assistance of the faculty. For the third year representatives of our class led the cheers at the basketball and football games in which many Juniors participated. We actively engaged in several interscholastic debates. Then came the big moment. A delegation waited upon the Juniors and asked us to move over to the Senior Castle in preparation for the coronation of gradua- tion. As young Juniors ever alert to make the most of opportunity, we went, trailing them to the Senior Castle. Then for many long months we trained in the best of court manners in order that we might in a high and mighty way ascend the throne on the day of coronation and graduation. Through the capable leader- ship of John Petro as president, Melva Werlinich as vice president, Ray Lyons as secretary, and Virginia Colantoni as treasurer, we experienced a busy year of I activities. Committees appointed by the president selected blue and yellow the class colors, and the yellow rose as the class flower. When duly whispers low thou must, the youth replies I can , was the chosen motto. The Seniors again produced another hit comedy with their Senior Class Play, Shooting High , The Senior Prom in June was the last gathering of this class that spent four eventfid years together. socia as THE ROXIAN
