Having successfully completed the second step of our High School career, we, the members of the class of '41, start- ed our Junior year on Monday morning, other school activities - chorus, debate, F. F. A. and Band. September 7, 1939, with the determination to do our best. We were very pleased to have Mr. Jones appointed as our sponsor for the year. At our first class meeting, we per- formed the important task of electing the following class officers: Guy Wynne Libbee, president, Clifford Bode, vice- presidentg Earlene McChristy, secretary, and Billy Robison, treasurer. Our class was well represented in athletics, 11 boys were out for football, 7 of which received letters. Bill Robison and Clarence White were co-captains this year. For next year, Bill Nill and Clif- ford Bode, two more members of our class, were chosen co-captains. In basket- ball, several Junior boys received letters. We were also well represented in all Neal Dawson and Charles Fogle to rep- resent us in the Student Council, and Bill Robison was elected vice-president of the Student Body. The most important social event of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom. Early in the year we began making plans for this occasion. The finances for the expense of this affair were obtained by the usual taxation, and by selling candy and sodas at the football and basketball games. We also sponsored a dance and presented a Junior Play which helped greatly. The Prom was a great success and was enjoyed by everyone. We feel this year has been a most enjoyable and successful one, and we are all looking forward to next year when we shall be Seniors.
