V'-I-3 Cl P r.':..-'I :the IF-932 magician Juniors We opened our Iunior year with a bang on Monday morning, August 31, 1931. For some reason or other everyone of the Iuniors seemed exceed- ingly anxious to get back into the school building. Not because they wanted to begin the work part of school right off the bat, oh no, but for many and varied reasons other than that. Red Larson was seen roaming around the school building as early as seven o'clock on that exciting Monday morning. Of course, it is not known just why he came so early, but some opinions are that he wanted to get a good seat in the Iunior room, and that he wished to be present to welcome our new principal, Mr. Fish, and new English teacher, Miss Thelma Gilkey. Per- haps he was there to greet the Frosh and make them feel at home, especially a certain little girl of that bewildered looking group. Everyone was glad to see his or her friends and didn't delay in becom- ing acquainted with the new ones. For the first couple of days the classes were conflicting due to several changes in the schedule, but before many days had elapsed we had settled down to the old routine of books and more books. Our first class meeting was held during the latter part of September for the chief purpose of electing class officers. , 1 ..fU,3x 1'1 ff .- 1 'iT?l ' 95955-- Qffff fffixl- V 4 x Q . ,ir , ' 1 5 K Twenty

N zneteen :The 19:52 fvxsgiei-all young people on their first job is getting adjusted to their position or as some might say, getting along with the boss. If the young man or woman does not get adjusted and keeps changing jobs they can easily form a habit of this and develop an irresponsible roving attitude. It is necessary that these young people should have the proper and best of training before starting out to begin their life work. If they do not have this proper training they are likely to be quickly displaced and many lives will be colored by a sense of failure. -Ass1sTANT EDITOR F. R. farewell To MRS. LESTER I. ORDIWAY We all wish Mrs. Ordiway happiness in her new position, that of a married woman. A forei n language teacher of her ability will be hard to find. The school will allso miss her work in dramatics. So again we shall say, Happi- ness and the very, very best of luck! To MR. LESTER D. KELLEY The loss of Mr. Kelley's ever-cheerful grin will tend to make the school less bright next year. We all wish him great success in his new position at Rixford, and we hope he will be as popular among his new pupils as he was here. ff, ,v ,AA ,, 1.

MINNIE KELLEY Vice President GEORGE NELSON Secretary IEAN BARTLETT Treasurer .... VICTOR LARSON The Iunior Class colors are Purple and Gold. Our motto remains the same - We strive to make our best, better. The class flower is the yellow rose. Last year our class enrollment was 34, but six of our classmates have departed from our school since then. They are: Charles Lasher, Elizabeth Almony, Dorothy Olinger, Arlyne Swanson, Virginia Wise and Mabel Wolfe. We are glad to welcome four new members to our class this year. They are: Iean Bartlett, Marjorie Canfield, Maxine Rafferty and Lois Lundgren, who joined us in the order named. Ruth Stidd also became a member of our class. Late in October we received our class rings and pins, the arrival of which everyone had so patiently awaited. Some of the boys polished their class rings with mercury in the Laboratory. The rings looked very bright and shiny until the polish wore off, then they didn't look so good. Don't worry Iuniors! We live and learn but we are inclined to think at times that it's only the former. The Iunior class was well represented in the two sports, Basketball and Track. Carl Benson and Red Larson were a great asset to the Basketball team and appear very promising for next season. The former proved his ability as a guard as did the latter in the center and guard positions. Iunior boys also saw service on the Track Team. Iunior girls who played basketball are Ruth Nelson, Francena Malmrose, Doris Iohnson, Maxine Rafferty and Rosie Rich, They all received letters except Doris Iohnson. Carl Benson and Red Larson were each awarded a letter for their performances on the basketball court. We are all looking forward to next year which we hope will be as pleasant and satisfactory as our Iunior year has been. lt will be our last year in Mt. Iewett High School and with this thought in mind we hope to make it our best and most successful of all. Our class now numbers thirty-three members and everyone of us sincerely wishes to return next September to begin that final chapter of High School. The Class of '33 goes on!
