Officers fr Activities The 1953-54 school year got off to a good start for the juniors. During football sea- son they were given first choice of concessions and re- ceived fifty percent of the profit. Eleven ineinbers of the junior class were on the foot- ball, basketball, baseball and track teams. In late October, the class began planning for its float to be entered in the annual I-lalloweycn parade. Incident- ally, the float took first prize of ten dollars. Three of the four reserve cheerleaders were juniors. During basketball season, the class sold Wildcat pins and held record dances after two of the home games. On january 29th the jun- iors sponsored a round dance with Larry Hines' Orchestra furnishing the music. Included in the spring play cast were ten juniors. They had fun planning for their dances and other im- portant events of the school year, but the most fun was the Junior-Senior Prom for which they started making plans in the early spring. It was held in honor of the Se- niors at Oberlin Inn on May 15, 1954. All in all, the junior class had a very profitable year and is eagerly awaiting its senior year.

Everyone had a good time, although the class treasury seemed to benefit very little from all this. When sch ool resumed, they found themselves again with the largest class roll of any, 72 members. The first thing that entered their minds those first few weeks was football, in which there was an unusually large number of sophomore boys participating. Gee, where has all the time gone? was the question most of them were saying when they found those first few months had gone by so quickly. But they soon got back in the swing of things when they saw basketball and the various other activities rolling around. Again there was a large number of them out for basketball and other activities. Sponsoring a record dance after one of the games and being in charge of a few concessions during the year helped to boost a rather de- flated treasury. After basketball, the music department seemed to take ov- er with many sophomores par- ticipating in the contests. They also held a class party which turned out to be quite a success but nearly made Mr. VVilliams a nervous wreck! As the sophomore year drew to a close, they all seem- ed to realize more and more just how short their high school life was going to be and found themselves looking forward to their junior year.
