JUNIOR HI5EOUJ In Sept. 1935, fifty-two backward Freshmen wended their way slowly towards the high school. After the much dreaded initiation was over they began to brighten up and take part in the school activities. They elected as their class offi¬ cers: President, Luther Buchholtz; Vice Pres.,Robert Morgan; Treasurer, Max Berry; Secretary, Faye Melick. A few of the members gave a play entitled Putting on the Dog. In Sept. 1936, forty-six pupils enrolled in the Sopho¬ more Class. Soon after the opening of school the following class officers were elected: President, ; Luther Buchholtz; Vice President, Gwendolyn Kessler; Secretary, Faye Melick; Treasurer, Lester Bullock. To help gain money for athletic supplies, the play, Hist She ' s a Man, was presented. In Sept. 1937, they entered high school as Juniors. There were only thirty-nine pupils enrolled. This year they elected the following as their class officers: President, Mary Luckett; Vice Pres., Luther Buchholtz; Secretary, Faye Melick; Treasurer, Wayne Edwards. They selected Orchid and Silver as their class colors, the whi te rose as their class flower, and Onward and Upward Until We Reach Our Goal, as their class motto. A Junior-Senior weiner roast was held at the Crooks- ville Dam. A Christmas party was held on Dec. 22 in the gymnasium. Some of the members took part in the play, Frank and Erna, for the benefit of the athletic association. To raise money for the annual Junior-Senior banquet four short plays were presented, in which all members of the class took part. The Juniors also aided the Seniors in spon¬ soring an amateur program. The banquet was held in the Lutheran Church basement on May 20, 1938, and was a great success. The Juniors have ranked high in their studies and many of their names have been seen on the honor roll each six weeks. Roselmah Ityers was awarded a medal by the American Legion for her essay on l y Responsibility as a Citizen. Her essay also received first place in the county. Many of the Juniors have worked on the Hilites and Rosette staff. The musical ability of this group is shown by the fact that the Juniors have had leading parts in the operettas, that Nancy Ransbottom received first place in a recent vocal contest, and that the Sextet, of which three members were Juniors, Nellie Henry, Zelma Kilpatrick, and Nancy Ransbot¬ tom, received second place in the sextet contest. The Juniors are looking forward eagerly to next year, when they will be Seniors.
