Junior Class History After having gone through the entire season of the seventh and eighth grades practically undefeated, our team started on a seemingly harder schedule in our freshman year. Our captain was Norma Metzler. with the assistant captain, Hobert Blosser. Welbourne Tooker led the rooters in the Yell for class dues. The team chose as their colors, yellow and black, and the yellow rose as flower. They decided to carry out the motto, “It is better to have tried and failed than never to have tried. The team came through with a high score and after calling time out and having a short rest period they came in with more vigor with which to defeat the new enemy. Sophomore. We chose our captain, Robert Wise, and assistant captain, Carol Clouse. Hobert Blosser was elected the center to get our class dues. The schedule was climaxed by the team's calling time out for a class party. Looking forward to conquering the new foe. Junior, we elected Robert Shively captain and Carol Clouse, assistant. Realizing the responsibility of the manager of our funds we re-elected Hobert Blosser. Of course, a team as large as ours needs trainers so we elected the following members to represent us in the student council: Freshmen: Inez Stahly, Everett Stouder. Sophomore: Gerald Mullett, Harold Strycker, June Dumph. Junior: Norma Metzler, Richard Stuckman. James Weygand. The coaches for our team are a great part in our success. Mr. Holaway and Miss Lantz. who have played Inez Stahly and Norma Metzler. TWENTY-FIVE
