Alpha 1924 JUNIORS Greet the Juniors of ’25, the greatest of their kind! They are one hundred percent strong in everything. In every phase of school activities this class is represented. It has won laurels in football. Stram, the galloping guard; Mace, our great defensive man, and Patton, our terrible tackle, all hail from the class of ’25! Rippey is playing his way to fame in basketball! Not only in athletics have they scored but in dramatics as well. For the Christmas party they gave a snappy play, a version of the season s hit, Topsv and Eva. Ruth Davis as Topsy was great. The other members of the cast also received applause as each did his part in a creditable way. Under the supervision of Miss Nelson, who has already established a reputation as a director in O. U. H. S., the play was an undoubted success. In all, the Juniors are a happy lot. Perhaps they are not the best students in the world, but they all get by. They are full of pep and are always on the job when it comes to upholding the school, whether it be in advertising a champion football game or advocating detention for tardy students. However the latter part of the comparison should not be stressed as the Juniors are human, and they do not like to sec their feliow students suffer. T his class can. without doub.. receive its rightful inheritance of Senior dignity and truly deserve it. When the time comes for it to pass from the portals of the O. U. H. S., it will leave behind a record of which the Alma Mater can be proud. LOW JUNIORS Three cheers for the Low Juniors! We may be a small class but we are full of pep! Here's a secret—fifteen of our members are Latin sharks! Why. they translate Caesar so that Caesar himself would not recognize his own Gallic Wars.” And the way we recite verbs! Say. we'd better start a new Latin Grammar! When it comes to music and dramatics we’ve got them all beat. Marcus l urk—our star chorus girl, can lead a chorus better than both the Duncan sisters put together. He proved it to us at the Freshman reception, when he le I the chorus that told us. You Gotta See Mann Every Night or You Can't Sec Mama at All. They certainly put it across: almost played leap-frog off the stage. We are also well represented in athletics, having members on the boys’ B and C basketball teams and on the girls’ soccer team. Harry Stoler. our vice-president, may not be very big. but every inch of him is full of school spirit. Harold James, our secretary, is a basketball player of merit. He is an allround good sport! You all know Ruth Wood. Say. can't she collect taxes from us when we re broke and have no friends to borrow from? But hurrah for Axel Johnson, the bov who put us on the map hv g’ving us lots of write-ups in the school paper! He has made us the peppy class that we now are. Page iq
