LIFE WITH THE JUNIORS A THREE ACT PLAY BY THE JUNIOR CLASS ACT I Setting the stage for the 51-52 school year was a group of 91 students ready to face the perils of their first big event, the Freshman Mixer. The Freshies were all obliged to wear green Horns on their heads Tuesday, September 18, 1951. Another big event was the Homecoming festivities. The bonfire was a huge success and it was said to be the best one yet. In the leading role was President John Schreiner with his leading lady (Vice-President) Marjorie Ahrens. Charles Anderson was understudy (secretary-treasurer) and Mr. Vernon Stamstead, the director (advisor). The only members of the cast with a perfect attendance were Carol Steiner, John Steiner, Clifford Tesar and Richard White. ACT II The second act opened with much rejoicing because it was now their turn to initiate the Freshie Greenhorns. Leading man of this act was Paul Mitchell. The supporting cast included Larry Yeomans and Diane Patterson. Mr. Herman Derouin was technical advisor. ACT III Scene one opened with class electing Dan Bresnahan, President, Larry Yeomans, as Vice-President, Bill Layde, Secretary-treasurer, and Mr. Richard Tessendorf as advisor. Scene two of this act took place on May 8th when they presented the annual spring prom. The main event of the play came during the third scene as the Junior class presented Annie Get Your Gun . The story depicts the famous tour of Annie Oakley and Frank Butler. Annie finds that her natural charm and not her championship shooting wins her man. The lovable Annie was portrayed by Marianne Mercer and John Schreiner played the part of Frank Butler. As the final curtain descends at the end of the Junior year we find each and every one awaiting the forthcoming Senior Year, ready to face whatever the future may hold however good or bad it may be . Plans for the Junior Prom got underway early in March. The date was set for May 8, with dancing from 9 o'clock to 1 o'clock. The music was furnished by Tommy Thompson and his orchestra from Dubuque. King Dan Bresnahan and Queen Darlene Fox reigned in a setting of palm trees and exotic foliage. The theme of the event was Some Enchanted Evening. Lora Steiner, chairman of decorations, and those Juniors who helped decorate presented a prom that they could be proud of. Junior Class History — I 1
