CLHSS In September, 1943, 74- students including two newcomers, Eunice Battling and Herman NIiller, returned to school prouder than ever before; for thev were now juniors. They had a blg year ahead of them. ' Dan Costa, CUE Juergens, Betty Ammerman, and llary Jane Cappel were elected by the class to hold the responsible offices of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. llargie Kiosterman, llerilyn Thomas, and Dick Hoffmann weie the junior representatives on the Student Council. One bright morning, the juniors were called from their classes to a meeting held in the gym. The juniors were always happy to be called out of class, but they were thrilled as can be when they found the purpose for that particular assembly. The purpose was none other than choosing the class ring. There were so many beautiful selections that the juniors found it quite difficult to decide on the one they Wanted most to be the symbol of their Classr However, they made a very beautiful choice, and they had to wait months for the order to be filled and for each junior to receive his ring. That was a busy year for the class of '45. In sports, the boys were fast climbing to the top. Five had already made the varsity team in basketball, and nine junior boys were active on the football team. The girls were losing in basketball as had been their custom throughout their basketball career. Preparing for the Junior-Senior Prom was most exciting The big night was to be on R'Iay 26. The orchestra had to he hired; invitations had to be addressed; programs had to be made. The Class of 51-5 was kept quite busy making plans for that festive dance. The year slipped by quickly. The class rings finally arrived, to the dazzelment 0f the juniors; the Prom had been a huge success; Pat Schmidt and Joe thers had been chosen Queen and King of the From; the examinations were just about completed. That school yea: was just about gone except for one thing, the junior picnic On June 15, the juniors came gaily to school, lunch under one arm, golf sticks under another, and hats and balls dangling along from nowhere. The boys had their cars for transportation; pop was iced in several of the trunks; cans 0t potato chips were stored away; everyone was anxious to he off. The juniors will never forget that picnic spent in Sharon Woods. It was wonderful. In September, 1944, the seniors came to school to resume their last year of high school study. Three years had gone swiftly by, and they knew that their senior year would go faster than 2111. Cliff Juergens was elected president of the senior class which now consisted of 65 students, two of whom were new that year, Harry Jackson and Steve Kleeman. h-Iarian Nieporte was the vice-prCSI- dent. Howard Rottinghaus was the secretary and treasurer. This being their last year. Those parties, or get-togethers, were a lot of fun. One main event in which the seniors were engaged was the choosing of the Class play. The title was Slightly Delirious. The seniors were quite the actors. They were convinced of this after Wine ning first prize in nStunt Night.n The seniors spent a great amount of time making plans for Commencement, Baccalaureate, and Class Day. A speaker had to be selected for the Baccalaureate; programs had to be decided upon; and musical arrangements had to be chosen. All these, the members of the Class of 515 toiled over in order that they would make their graduation a day to remember. On May 11, the seniors presented' their class play in the auditorium of the high school. The cast was perfect, and the seniors, through their united cooperation, made that play a huge success. D'Ionths passed. The basketball and football seasons had long been over. The seniors who played on those teams displayed their years of training in exhibitions which drew large crowds of appreciative fans. The senior girls amazed the school by turning out a squad that demonstrated splen- did team work. Three years of few Victories could, at last, be forgotten. The day of graduation was drawing near. The seniors. practiced and practiced in order to make that night an eventful one. Plans had been made, and saddened seniors awaited their diplomas. It took four short years to earn the opportunity of receiving those diplomas, and graduation Was now 5nished. Four years had passed-eyears that would never come again vears that contained much enjoyment and study. The members of the Class of '45 were now an alumni. M aritm N ieporte. e13.-

HISTORY The Juniors, the class of '16, began the year ingerly awaiting word from Jim llatson, Chairman of the ring committee, that Mr. Ulrich had arrived with the rings. After considering all the possibili- ties as to what could have happened to the rings enroute to North College Hill, the Juniors waited patiently; then just before Christmas, the rings made a flashing appearance on every Junior hand. After blackening :1 few hundred eyes with their anxiety to have everyone view the new glittering circle of gold, the Juniors went on their undisturbed way. Now wearing this distinctive symbol, they decided to get down to business. First of all there were many ccmpromises with other organizations in securing dates for the Junior dances. Then put- ting the Junior X twhich is altogether different from any other X1 0n the dates October 21, ll'larch 2-1, and April 21, the dances were held with the complete cooperation of every Junior. On Friday, November 17, 1944-, the Juniors shared honors with the Parent-Tezlchers Association in sponsoring Stunt Night. The eveningls entertainment was brought to a climax when Herman Albach, master of ceremonies, announced that the Seniors had won first prize. The Juniors had 67 in the ClElSS and chose hlarvin Tiefermann as president, Jo Ann Fulmer 21$ vice-president; Russell Schaefer as secretary, and Ruth Dold as treasurer, With their combined ef- forts and those Of the committees appointed at the first of the school term, the Juniors can promise the Senior Class an Outstanding Junior-Senior From which is to be held on Tuesday, Nlay 29, 19-1-5. The law making body of N.C.H. is the Student Council Which consists of students only. Rep- resenting the Juniors are Jim Klatson, Leonard Wirtz, and Forest Singhoff. Jim Matson is Vice- r president and Leonard Wirtz is secretary of the Council. You may have gained the impression that the Juniors spend all their time dancing and enter- , mining themselves; on the contrary, there are many serious activities throughout the school in which the Juniors take an active part, such as Girl Reserves, Hi-Y, Glee Club, and lntraihural sports. There are twenty Juniors in Girl Reserves, represented in cabinet by June Elsner as treasurer, Betty Lou Harris as secretary, and Jo Ann Fulmer as devotional chairman. In Hi-Y there are ten Juniors. The class has gone all out for sports. The girls have two class basketball teams. Ruth Feller- man and Earlene Nloninger as captains. Both teams were quite successful. The boys have Intramural teams played during Physical Education classes, so every hey partici- pates. On the varsity there are three Juniors: Leonard Wirtz, RIatVin Tietermann, and Jim hiat- son, and On the Reserves, there is Wiltz lVIacDonald. Under the capable guidance of the advisers, Miss Ross and Mr. Harrell, the Juniors strove toward becoming matured men and women of the future. Jo Ann Fulmer and Daisy Powers emh
