CLASS OFFICERS June Adams President Ernestine Dunmire Secretary Betty Coulardot Vice-President Kathleen Murfield Treasurer JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION Tom, Dick, and Harry answered all S. O. S. calls from the good ship ' 38 as it journeyed on its voyage April 16. We dropped anchor at Port Chamber of Commerce, Fort Wayne, at 6:30 p. m., where we were met by the class of ' 39. Knowing that our long and tiresome journey from Monroeville had made us very hungry, they fed us well at tables prettily decorated to carry out the theme of our class motto, Today we launch out; where shall we anchor? | After the dinner and after-dinner program, which was very entertain¬ ing because of the class histories and wills, toasts from various faculty mem¬ bers and classmates, we travelled overland to relax and enjoy ourselves for a few hours in one of the theaters at Fort Wayne. About one hundred twenty-five enjoyed the evening and the class of ' 39 wished the class of ' 38 bon voyage, until they would chance to meet again. Page 20

JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of ' 35 a large group of pupils enrolled as Freshmen in the Monroeville High School. Our class numbered thirty-seven members, com¬ posed of students from fefferson, fackson, Monroe, and Union Tov nships. Our first year at M. H. S. was also Mr. Doty ' s first year as principal. We organized with Betty Coulardot as President and Miss Gladys Klop- fenstein as sponsor. During this first year we encountered all the common obstacles of the green Freshies, but twenty-nine of our original members stood by the ship and safely ended the first lap of the journey. Our Sophomore year was begun with the same number which completed the first year. On the day of organization. Miss Miller was chosen sponsor and Kenneth Hawkins was elected President. This year the members seemed to realize school is not all play, and nearly the entire class enrolled in the Latin class. When the school term of ' 37- ' 38 rolled around, we eagerly returned to school, for since we had first entered high school we had been looking for¬ ward to the time when we would be lolly luniors. School was only briefly under way when we realized the duties and responsibilities of luniors and held a class meeting to choose our leaders, lune Adams was elected Presi¬ dent and Mrs. Elsie Towell was chosen as our adviser. • During the year we had one class party. Our class also had charge of the candy and confection sales, under the able chairmanship of Betty Coulardot. On December 1st and 2nd the mystery play, Hobgoblin House, was given in the school auditorium. The lunior Class has been proud to be represented in basket ball by Kenneth Hawkins, Tom Taylor, and Dick Clay. We also had the honor of having two of our members, fohn Bowers and Ernestine Dunmire, as yell leaders. With the giving of the annual funior Senior reception on April 16, our work for this year was completed. During our first three years v e have encountered many discouraging con¬ ditions, but on the other hand we have enjoyed the intimate friendships of our classmates and teachers. We hope to come back next year with our twenty-four members and with higher aims and ideals than ever before and graduate as a class that is a credit to M. H. S. Page 22
