Qwiwa. QLoaa Class Motto: “Green But Still Growing.” Class Flower: Orchid. Class Colors: Green and White. Honor Students Five Successive Semesters: Norma Boehler, Bob Brack-enhoff, Clyde German, Bernice Herzog, Helen Kausic, Ruth Logsdon. In their third year at N. T. H. S. our juniors have proved themselves worthy of bearing the senior name. They have contributed much toward the improvement of our school by taking part in the various school activities; the athletes of this class helped win the M. S. M. Conference, and those in the “Ag” class had a high yield in the F. F. A. hybrid corn contest. They can also boast of a large number of honor students. The juniors have worked hard to prove themselves capable and responsible for next year when they will become the leaders of our school. It is their duty to carry on the work of the senior class next year. They are confident, for they know they will carry on the tradition. OFFICERS JAMES TOSETTI, Vice-President: MISS PIRCHER, Adviser; BETTY YURGIN, Treasurer; MISS HOGUE, Adviser; GAIL MORGAN, Secretary; JIM KETTELKAMP, President. TWENTY-FIVE
