Juniors Prepare for Greater Responsibilities Five hundred eighty-four students make up the Junior Class of 1954-55. They have just completed a year which was not marked by the frightening newness of the sophomore year or the responsibility of school leadership, such as they will have in their senior year. Yet it had a certain distinctiveness all its own. In the junior year the scope of activities- both scholastic and recreational-was consid- erably widened. To those athletically inclined, the year had much to offer in the way of new sports. The rough and tumble excitement of playing on the AU football team became a re- ality to some, while others sought chances for competing in other sports. Those with an in- terest in music found that as juniors they could try for the honor of having a part in producing the harmonious results of the A Cappella choir. Students with theatrical inclinations found en- joyment in developing their talents through the many dramatic activities offered them. The stage fright on the night of the Spring Play was decidedly new and different. The mu- sical, magical night of the Junior-Senior Prom seemed to the juniors to be the perfect climax for such a fun-filled and memorable year as this had been. Sports events, plays, and other school activi- ties passed into the realm of their memories, but the juniors realized that even greater thrills lay before them in their senior year. 15
