CLASS OF ’39 FRESHMAN • Froshies. fresh out of grade school, are tramping up the steps, prepared to add to the high school their noble presence and acquired knowledge. Questions are asked of upper classmen such as, Where is the English room? Where do we go now? The first bell of the morning rings. Classes are divided into four separate groups to get the initial list of do's and don’t's.

Much time and effort are applied to plans for the Junior Prom, which has always been the worry of every junior class. As in previous years, however, it proves to be a successful affair. With the duty of ushering for baccalaureate and graduation, and decoration for the latter, a most enjoyable and profitable year is brought to a close. SENIOR • The scared” froshies of ’36. the snobby sophs of '37, and the dignified juniors of '38, are now established into one group forming the Senior Class of '39.
