(-Luii. otgsg The juniors, although they were the third ranking class in size, had a very successful year in student activities. They were well represented in athletics with John Cornelison, Raymond Burklund, Richard Klover, and Max Sullivan receiving letters in both basketball and football; while Allan Lundahl and Julian Anderson received letters for basketball alone. Everett Tieman, Frank Baker, Jack O’Donnell and Charles Hanson were lettermen in football. The junior play, “Adventures of Tom Sawyer,” presented on November 15, and the annual Junior-Senior banquet were two of the outstanding events of the year. Their class pep meeting presented in the form of a circus was a popular event. The junior class officers were Julian Anderson, President; Barbara Benjamin, Vice-president; Mary Anderson, Secretary; Raymond Burklund, Treasurer. Their Student Council representatives were Mary Barnes and Allan Lundahl.
