SCHERECK JELINEK POHLMAN EVANS History of the Junior Class TWO years and sonic months ago, the present junior class came into existence. Green and callow were they all. listening in wonder to the upper classmen talking in mystic tone of such fearful things as specific gravity, circumscribed triangles, and the process of osmosis. One week of turmoil went past, then came election of officers. Edward Scherlin was elected high exalted sultan of Freshmanica. John Pohlman was chosen for grand vizier, Ralph Dohse as guardian of the treasure chest, and Lloyd Miller and Julian Rosen as members of the vizier’s council. Miss Quinn was class adviser during that long, long year of algebra and cut-and-dried English. The freshman mixer came along, and all the freshies went through the usual agonies. A little later in the year, the class founded the Science Club under the supervision of Mr. Bockwitz. Some of the freshmen took part in the junior class play, “All of a Sudden Peggy”, which was pronounced a howling success. After their long struggle with algebra, science, etc., vacation rolled around; and all went home to recuperate. In September. 1928. they came hack to school with joy in their hearts. Now they were sophomores and could duck the new freshmen and help torture them a’ the mixer. This year the class, with Mr. Owen as class adviser, elected Jane Hoffman president, Catherine Dorsey vice-president, Howard Evans treasurer, and Ralph Dohse secretary. In athletics, many of the sophomores showed much promise and participated in all branches of sport. During the sonhomore year, the junior class play was a three-act mysterv entitled “The Thirteenth Chair”. It was pronounced one of the best ever produced in Prairie High. Several of “our gang” took part in it. M ay thirty-first came at last, and the hooks were parked away in moth balls while the students enjoyed three months of peaceful rest. Back to school again in the fall of twenty-nine. This year the juniors took a better part than ever in a'hletics, making up the major part of most of the teams. • At the first business meeting of the vear the following officers were elected: W il- liam Schereck, president; Lawrence (Libby) Jelinek, v»co.0resideiP; John ((Hist Pohl-man. secretary; and Howard Evans, treasurer again. Miss Cahail was the unanimous choice for class adviser. On February twenty-sixth, the junior play, “Big Time”, was presented and went over with a bang. After a long struggle with school work. May arrived, and with it the big event of the year—the junior prom. It was the result of weeks of work by the juniors, and was pronounced “a wow” by all who attended. Following the prom came final exams, presentation of athletic letters, and commencement: and another school year had followed the hufTalo and the passenger pigeon into the shadowy realms of the past.
