JUNIOR PLAY CAST SEATED: Ginger Dailey, Roger Kasuske, Judy Trapp, Jim Randall. STANDING: Glen Elliot, Mary Burges, Elva Mertens, Judy Tillman, Larry Johns, Mary Lynne Campbell, Lyle Peschong. Eek! the snowman. HI teach you to step on my gouty foot. JUNIOR CLASS PLAY “The Adorable Imp”, a three-act comedy, was presented by the junior class on December 2, in the high school auditorium. Mystery, laughter, and confusion accompanied the Gordon family when they moved to Sparkling Springs, next door to Brian Barclay. Brian had been an ardent admirer of Pamela Gordon and would have married her had it not been for his rather neurotic daughter, Malvina. Meanwhile, Mrs. Gordon and her mother, with the help of her impish daughter, Betty Lou, make an attempt to win the affection of Dilworth Pick- rell and his father, wealthy gentleman suffering from dyspepsia and gout, by inviting the Pickrells for a week-end.

JUNIORS One step closer to the goal of sen- iority, the MHS juniors of 1955-56 took time to make this year one of worth- while and lasting importance. Capably led by Mr. Swanson, class advisor, and Jim Randall, Bill Wilson, and Carol Anderson, class officers, the juniors successfully carried out several class projects. In October the “Who Will Reign Tonight?” theme plus plenty of hard work copped second prize for the junior homecoming float. The Imp was Ador- able December 2 when the soon-to-be seniors presented their annual class play to a large audience. May 5 the Juniors treated their fore-runners to one of the nicest proms held in MHS. Athletics, forensics, music, publish- ing, farming and homemaking were suc- cessfully enlivened by junior participa tion this year. The 1955-56 juniors are ready and well able to accept their role of leadership.

PROM COMMITTEE The 1956 Prom committee began work in early March to make the Jr.-Sr. Prom a suc- cess. Having set their theme on a “tropical isle,” the juniors spent many hours creating just the “right” atmosphere on May 5. With food prepared by the junior mothers, speeches by our own MHS genius, and music by the Natives the banquet was a highlight of the evening. As has been traditional for the last few years, a luncheon sponsored by the Kiwanis and a midnight movie after the Prom dance topped off the evening.
