Reading from left to right they are: Joe Dudra, treasurer, Raymond Griffith, vice-president, Germaine Moonly, president, and in the inset, Ethel- mae Cramer, secretary. These students, who were elected at the beginning of the term, have ably carried out an effective plan during the year for financing the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. The responsibilities of an office holder in one's Junior year are many, and these officers have come through with fiying colors. During the year the Juniors have sponsored three dances, the play He Who Hesitates, and the climactic social highlight of the year, the Junior- Senior Banquet. A colorful Autumn Dance was held October 5, 1945, in the gymnasium, with a large crowd in attendance. Another dance was held after the Southmont game on January 11, 1946, and the other on March 15, 1946. The play He Who Hesitates, was a great suc- cess, and netted the Juniors a substantial increase in their treasury. Three matinees and two evening performances were given. The traditional Junior-Senior Banquet was held at the White Star Hotel in Jennerstown, the site of last year's affair. -The prom, an established custom at Richland, was a gala event, with bright gowns and beautiful corsages creating a colorful scene. Al Carnute's orchestra supplied the music and the Seniors departed feeling they had received a wonderful treat from the undergraduatesf The teachers who served as advisersl to the class were: Mrs. Risbon, sponsor of the Junior girls in the commercial course, Miss Albert, sponsor of the Junior girls in the academic course, and Mrs. Wilson, sponsor of the Junior boys. .Congratu- lations are due to the various committees who were, through their untiring efforts, responsible for the success of the activiies throughout the year.
