jUN IOR CLASS HISTORY The mere mention of The class of '37 in the presence of a member of the faculty is quite enough to make the learned gentleman groan, for he immediately thinks of the tremendous and seemingly impossible task of Turning a playful group of juniors into serious-minded Senior classmen. lVl.A.'s class of '37 may not be a collection of master-minds and bookworms, but it cannot be said that They have not nobly contributed to the welfare and progress of the school. Of course, two or three juniors keep The class represented on The honor roll every month, but The class as a whole does not Take a huge interest in its studies. All left-over energy is used up in making The extra-curricular activities of The school bigger and better. Although This year's fourth form is very small, it pro- duced seven varsity letter men in football with an additional number of juniors making The scrub team. Cross-country, hockey, basketball, ten- nis, Track and baseball have also profited greatly by the efforts of this class within the past year. Sports, however, are not the only branch of school activity in which The juniors have participated. The Rostrum and the Forum societies added immeasurably to their standings by increasing their enrollments with members of the class. The Dramatic club in producing the Christmas play. i'The Goose Hangs l-ligh , with so much success this year, was notably assisted in The cast by two juniors, and in the stage crew by several others. On the weekly club day, during the winter, one could find two or three different members of the class present at each of the clubs. The Eagle Rocket and The year book staffs had many members from the fourth form, and the junior Prom was as usual one of the high spots of the class year. The junior class was rivaled only by the powerful Senior form in the matter of early morning Kimberley parkers Miss Sawyer's assembly goers, prom-Trotter chasers and all-aound lovers. The class of '37 has well kept and preserved that special feature handed down by former junior classes--styles in dress. Large and small checked pants, summer shoes in February, all sorts of odd coats, shirts and neckties resplendent with all the magnificent hues of the rainbow. together with white class hats, are only half of what the '36 juniors have brought forth in the way of regalia. These juniors may be a flashing, dashing, laughing crowd of lads. but they do enough work to get through quite nicely. With a few ex- cellent students in their midst and a persevering faculty at their head there is no reason why they cannot slow down a bit, apply more of their abundant energy to their studies and leave Montclair Academy in june, i937 with flying marks and numerous colleges waiting for them, 9290
