Their newly Tound digniTy did noT permiT The TiTle oT ninTh graders. lmmediaTely The class assumed The responsibiliTies which accompanied Their posiTion. The nominaTion and elecTion oT class oTTicers were new experiences. Freshmen girls were pleased when The voTes were TabulaTed and Juan Barlow had capTured The presidency. The successTul Freshman Romp indicaTed lorillianT social aTTairs Tor The TuTure. The accomplishmenTs oT various members oT The class meriTed indi- vidual acknowledgmenT. Two boys.
