The second year rolled around and the sophomores found they had lost several classmates but gained a few from George Washington Junior High. Now we come to the grand and glorious year of 1950. The little green freshmen of 1947 are now Jolly Juniors. Seventy-five lucky students are now member of the Jun- ior Class. When the Junior Class had a class meet- ing at the beginning of school, Roderick Davis was elected president, Dorothy Smith, secre- tary, and Noel Anthony, treasurer. They chose as their flower the white rose, and for their colors, blue and white. The motto is Ever Onward . On March 24, the class presented a play entitled Mamma's Baby Boy which was a great success. twenty-nine
