Many classmen joined the Press club, music groups, and as many attained scholastic recognition. By the fall of 1938 the class of '41 had become a little more accustomed to high school life. They were joined by the students from the junior High School and together these groups elected Nevin Wollam, Robert Swenson, and Emma jean Helman, president, vice president, and secretary. Again in their sophomore year, the members of the class partici- pated in club, social, and scholastic activities throughout the term.
