THE JU IOR CLASS S you look on the junior Class of '43, you will wonder little how we accomplished the different things we did during the last school year. Our freshman year was just a chance to get started and our sophomore year gave us an opportunity to grow up. As a result this Junior Class has had more spirit and cooperation in doing things than any other class in our school's history. For president we chose Robert Espe, who has held this ofhce for three years. Our class also had the honor of having one of its members, May Donnelly, as Student Council President. The main event in every junior year is its Prom. But do you think we waited for that? We gave two class dances previous to thc Prom to provide funds and also to give the student body something to do evenings when gas and tires fyes, girls, even fellowsl are rationed. These dances brought a total profit of over eighty dollars. Anthony Stella as Prom Chairman and a very helpful and cooperative Com- mittee made possible this dance, which was held May fourteenth at the Elks, Auditorium. The music was provided by Spiegle Willcox and his ten piece band with an additional girl vocalist. Sport activities? Yes, we were tops in that, too!! The varsity basketball team was made up almost entirely of junior men. Among the leading players were l'Stonewall Jackson, Ant,' Stella, Bob Espe, and l'Casanova Fletcher. But let's not forget the girls! Virgie Maen Baier, Captain, and Loretta Pudge Jerome, and Dot Jamesson were the outstanding girls of the class. If you think this class went places this year, wait until you see the class of '4-4. With the spirit and enthusiasm displayed this year, we can't help but be the best class to graduate from high school.
