Mary Vona Treasurer ......... ...... R ita Kippley Our initial activity for the current school year was the class paper which has been published monthly. The first issue was put out without a name because we decided to hold a contest among our subscribers to select an appropriate one. Anita Knowlton's entry 'Minoa Trumpeter, was cho- sen as the best. For her prize, she received a free copy each month. The magazine sale netted us a profit of S2l5.83. Dana Wells was the most successful sales- man with Slll.l5. Dana and the following members of our class received Merit Awards for good work: Janet Brownell, Judy Carney, Charles Witt, Stanley Nash, Lucy Steele, and Len Ring. The Junior Class Chicken Supper was a big success with a net gain of Sl38.00. The class owes much credit to our mothers who worked so hard to make such a fine supper. The big Junior dance of the year was called the Harvest Hoedown.' There was round and square dancing to the lively music of a good band. Judy Carney and Jerry Carhart were chosen as 'Farmer' and 'Farmerette,' and their attendants were Janet Brownell and Len Ring. The decora- tions in the auditorium helped greatly to effect the warm friendly spirit of the harvest season. Another highlight of the year was the final Junior Social Hour. During intermission, an ama- teur hour was offered as the entertainment part of the program. Cash prizes were awarded to the three top amateurs who were selected by the reaction of the audience to the laugh meter. The class of '52 extends best wishes to the graduating class of 'Sl for the future success and happiness in their respective fields.
