soo H This year was a busy one for the Junior Class. We sponsored the Homecoming Dance, at which Larry Henry reigned as King. Our class contributed quite a number of boys to football, basketball, and track: Darrell Schuman, Bill Ekiss, Larry Henry, Ralph Coate, Jim Engle, Ted Hector, Jerry Howard, Gary Mahannah, Dickie Tilton, Richard Terry, Chuck Morris, and Bob Howell. Judy Kondritz and Sharon Sunderland as cheer- leaders cheered our boys on. l-lead majorette from our class was Virginia Thompson. We sponsored a chili supper preceding a football game, and a sock hop after a basketball game. In December, our class sold magazines. The class was divided into two groups headed by captains Lana Heathcock and Richard Tilton. The winning team was Lana's. The Junior Play was held in the spring. At the end of the school year we honored the Seniors by giving the Junior-Senior Prom. We have en- joyed this year very much, and are looking forward to a busy year as Seniors. Our class sponsors were Miss Moran, Mrs. Berner, and Mr. Bucy. Class officers were: Larry Henry, president Ralph Coate, vice-president Glenda Sheets, secretary Lana Heathcock, treasurer CITIZENS NATIONAL BANK of Decatur Complete Banking Service Decatur, Ill.
