IUNICR FACTS . . Like every other class which has entered Princeton High School, the junior class members var in talents and abilities. l find that a number of the outstanding members have made quite a name for their class. May I ask your co-operation as l attempted to present my unprejudiced analysis of this class? Keep your eyes open for the star members of this class. Oh yes, here we see George Vane in the supremacy of knowl- edge! He has attained a great goal in making his intelligence win for him great honors. Without such a competent char- acter, the Cast certainly would be incomplete. Naturally, being musical, my best wishes are to be ex- tended to Bob Schoenberger, the maestro of this fine class. Very seldom do we see Bob without his cornet, and this ex- cellent combination seems to be going places. Kee up the good work, Bob! Your class and the entire student body are proud of you. Let us peek into the cafeteria through the window and draw a conclusion as to the sociability of the class as a whole. The junior party seems to be in the heighth of its hilarity, but boys, Why don't you dance? The dancing is usually the main event of a class party, and I know the girls would appreciate your co-operation in making the parties SOFT-ICMCRF FACTS Seldom does an opportunity knock at one's door to pull the upper classmen to pieces without endangering one's life. So it was with relish that I heard of my assi nment. Realiz- ing my immense responsibility, 1 set to woi methodically by consulting the dictionary as to the meaning of the word sophomore, True to my training, I first noted the deriva- tion of the word. What to my delighted eves should appear: sophosIwise, moros:foolish. Wise fools! Ah! That hit the nail on the head. At last I could diagnose the antics and mental aberrations of certain individuals lnot freshmenj in the first year Latin class. From the beginning of the ear these foreigners had disturbed the peaceful pursuits of, us verdant freshmen. ln this class only were we associated with those not of our kind and color. What an opportunity to im- press us favorably they had missed! From the beginning they regarded us freshmen with scorn and derision. It is true that their thin veneer of sophistication deceived us at first. Did not evervbody regard with amusement their attempts to gov- ern the class? Even the teacher to my astonishment, was not disturbed by their decided peculiarities and even laughed at their sallies. However, the report cards soon told the tale, and we learned the difference between laughing with and laughing at certain irregularities. Did not we freshmen totally F REST-IMEN FACTS In quality a freshman is quite strain'd, She is confounded in a gentle fog Impressing those about, she is twice daz'd, Both by the labvrinthine corridors And by the mighty wisdom that's imparted Within these Gothic portals. And yet within this fog Burns an ambition lighting up her soul To date some idol in an upper class. It becomes the unsung freshman Better than a score of dates with fellow classmen. , , os viewed by o Senior more successful. This is true of all four classes in Princeton High. How about it, fellows? The romance of the group is presented to us by that in- separable couple, Dorothy Inks and Earl Wolfe. May I chal- lenge the juniors to keep their eyes open next year, because it'll be leap year. Don't let Dotty take your junior class presi- dent away from you! - My eyes turn to the extreme right, and I see Mary Trim- ble. Mary, your class can be proud of their drum major! You've done some fine work this year. Stick by it and you'll attain great success. A class would be far from normal if it did not have a few outstanding athletes. Bob Duffield and Jack Staples have done some great work this year, and your class is looking forward to your Co-captainship in football next year. The good sportsman is to be admired, and this excellent quality is very evident in these two representatives of the junior class as well as the entire group. Lo and behold! There's Art Nelson closely following my analysis of his class. Yes, Art, as the loud speaker of vour class, I shall let it be your privilege to announce to your classmates that I think you have a grand class! LOUISE BUCHAUS '39 as viewed by o Freshmen eclipse these sophisticates on the Honor Roll? They can't fool us now! Even socially as well as scholastically they have their weak spots. On the night of the freshman party I learned that the high and mighty sophomores felt privileged to invite them- selves. One portly, masculine sophomore barged into our kindergarten antics just to have a laugh at our expense. He may now consider himself punished by this unexpected publicity. Sartorially speaking, the sophomores leave something to be desired. Neckties are commonlv regarded as halters by the masculine element, and one guileless little maid from the south even wears a snow suit. Psychologically, in the estimation of this freshman, the sophomores are merely a group of overgrown freshies. 1 Perhaps I'd better stop before I become too deeply incrim- mated. After all, the editor, not the sophomores, asked for this. In .all conscience, I ask myself: What kind of a sopho- more.will I make? We all have to go through a stage of growing pains, I suppose. VIRGINIA YOUNG '42 , as viewed by o Sophomore Whagtl attribute of queens transcends such gloried man- ate? Where, in these angel-features, is there the slightest shade Of her real verdency? Or shows it in the harsh reports, Wherein no mercy is displayed above the justice Of the too, too cruel C, Whose fountain head is in the pens of teachers. Therefore, freshman, though dreaming be thy common occu- pation, Why not devote thy scattered mind To that most precious of the attributes, mute concentration? FRED HECK '40
