JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY In the autumn of 1910, about sixty very ambitious Freshmen entered this school. None can deny that their ambitions have been more than fulfilled. However, modesty forbids the mentioning of their many valorous deeds here. But let it be sufficient to state that never before in the history of this school has any class withstood the hardships of the “studious life” as well as this, for now fifty per cent of those enrolled as Freshmen remain. This class has done a great deal for athletics. It has contributed “Pilly” Sears, “Don” Wright, “Juve” Johnson and “Spider” Keenan to basketball, and “Beech” Henderson, “Fat” Davie and John (poor nameless hero) Danison to baseball. Then, of course, “Shirky” Williams has the motorcycle bug pretty bad, and P. L. Yoerger is the champion in the hundred-yard dash. In literary circles also, the class has been very active. As Freshmen, we were well represented in the “Literary Sampsons” and the “M. O. L. S.” The Sophomore Class made up the “S. L. S.,” and the Juniors are the most active members of the “Buckeye Literary Club,” the “Room Four Lit” and the “Goethe Verein.” Effie Sycks and Rodney Cullen are members of the executive committee of this society. Grace Cameron starred in “That Rascal, Pat,” one of the “Piano Fund” plays, and Mabelle Donnelly has achieved fame in musical circles. Just now, as Juniors, under the leadership of our capable and efficient presidcut Rodnev Cullen, who is assisted by Ruth Wright and Paul Sears, we are making extensive preparations for giving a very elaborate reception to the class of ’13. However, surmounting all difficulties, we have successfully equated ourselves through Algebra, indirect discouraged ourselves through Latin, narrated ourselves through Rhetoric, grafted ourselves through Agriculture, Alexandercd ourselves through Ancient History, ponied ourselves through Caesar, parallelogramed ourselves through Geometry, Shakespeared through Literature, Napoleoned through European History and studierened ourselves through German, and now we must entrust the future to the class prophet.
