One year ago this wide eyed and innocent band of youngsters made its appearance in the high school. These youngsters were fortunate in that they christened the new Junior high school. If we may judge by the present this group will be leaders throughout their entire school life. SOPHOMORES H Group I.

Those who gave toasts were: Dorothy Marcell, Winifred Wolf, Ray Anderson, Walter Dickinson, Don Stotler, Jessie Dean and Louise Branson. If the past can be a safe basis for the judging of the future, then we may be sure that the pres- ent junior class will be the leaders in the senior year and even in life beyond. V v

Several of this class were soloists in the mu- sic contest at Lawrence. This class is also well represented in the Jun- ior high orchestra and glee clubs. One of the two cheerleaders chosen by popular vote, was elected from this class. Promotion exercises of tl1e ninth grade were held the evening of May 22 at Memorial Audi- Lorium.
