There are few of us who haven't, sometime during grade school days, looked forward to being Juniors, when we would be allowed to edit the 'l'illicum, Uput on a Alunior play, honor the Seniors at a ,lunior-Senior Banquet, and enter into all the other activities forbidden to lower classmen. VVe entered school in the fall of V238 with thirty-six juniors. During the year three members of the class dropped out, leaving a total enrollment of thirty- three. VVe bought our class sweaters which were maroon and white. The blunior play, 4'VVhere,s Grandmaf' was very successful. Besides having a large number of our class in band and glee clubs, we have officers in the Student Body and Girls' Club. llilfred Saunders, Bill Cahill.

SENIOR CLASS HISTQRY I lVe, the present Seniors, are winding up our four enjoyable years of high school having to our credit the honor of being the largest class to enter or leave Oakville High School since it was built in 1921. Our Seniors have been a tal- ented class all through high school days, as well as being represented in all activities, of which we have sponsored many. In our freshman year we had fifty-four students enrolled. Five of the fresh- men, competing with members of the other classes in a one-act play contest, were successful in walking off with first honors, as well as with the five dollar prize. In our sophomore year we were represented by five boys in athletics, three persons in debate, two yell queens, ten representatives in band, fifteen in girls, glee and five in boys, glee. In our junior year we had dropped to thirty-nine, which number we hoped to retain until graduation. We gave the smash hit, Romance in a Boarding Housev for our junior play. In athletics, our class had six boys, five in debate, one yell queen and one song leader. We also sponsored the Junior-Senior Banquet. Best of all was the Tillicum we published. When we enrolled last fall as Seniors our number had dwindled to thirty-six. But we have not been able to keep even that figure. Fairly early in the year two of our members fell prey to Dan Cupid's arrows and left school for the cook stove and washboard. The other members of the class have been able to- restrain their romantic impulses fairly well with one late and notable exception. As Seniors we have entered many activities, We gave the mixer at the be- ginning of the year. Seven boys represented our class in athletics and we had about a dozen in music, Our Senior play, uHobgoblin House, will long be remembered as the best weive ever seenf' We are very proud of our class for its scholastic record. We have a number of Seniors on the four-year honor roll and it was only with difficulty that the valedictorian and salutatorian were chosen from the six highest. After careful computation it was found that Rosemary Holdereed had won first place and that Ed Brant was second although the next four places were very close. Page Six

SOP!-IONIORE CLASS The Sophomore class of 1939 entered Oakville l-ligh School with thirty-seven members, five joining us later in the year. Many of our members are active in the athletic and music departments. At the mixer, held September 30, our class received the prize for presenting the best skit. At the Freshman-Sophomore party, given November 4, our class initiated the Freshmen into Oakville High School. Our class won first prize on the sale of Student Body tickets. At the Carnival, held May 5, the Sopho- mores took charge of two booths. And so we leave to the Sophomores of next year our reputation as being the noisiest class in the school. Page Eight
