JUNIOIQ CLASS HISTDDY ln the early part of the year 1934, the present junior class made its debut into high school life. Even in its first academic year this class was well represented in sports and in other school activities. lts participation in events connected with school life increased in its sophomore year and carried the class on into an exceed- ingly active junior year. At a special meeting the juniors elected their class officers: Ralph Briggs, president, Edith Cobane, vice presiclentg Julia Loughlin, treasurer, and Dorothy Wenz, secretary. The juniors were represented in cross country, girls, basketball, boys, basketball, baseball, track, and prize speaking. The junior class wishes to express its appreciation for Miss Cassidy's kind co- operation and hard work in making the junior class as successful as it is.

AMBITIDNS WHICH MY IQELATIVES HAVE FDD ME Relatives! What a nuisance they can be at times. With the best of intentions on their part, I suppose, they meddle with and interfere in one's life until, if one isn't watchful, they would be making a preacher out of someone who would be more in his element as a clown. My family is no different from families of other people. Just listen to an account of a few of the aims which different members of my family have in mind for me. Grandmother has dreams of my becoming a great singer since Aunt Beth and Cousin Jane and many more of my ancestors were all great singers in their day. However, even if I wished to satisfy her ambition, I should never be able to do so as I canat warble even a note. In spite of this small obstacle, though, grandmother insists that I am the one to carry on the family name to fame. Then there is Aunt Jeanette. She would make me a missionary. To her life would be perfect if I could some day return from a missionary trip to Africa and tell about my simple little experiences with the savages. 'Tis strange, perhaps, but Aunt Jeanette fails to create in me any such ambitions as this which she has in mind for me. In her plans she seems to have forgotten about missionaries being eaten by cannibals. Or does she just dislike me? Next among those with plans for me comes brother Bill. He has considered me as a future worker and believes that I should become a veterinary-a mere doctor of animals. Even if I liked the idea, how could I become an animal doctor? I don't dare approach within a mile of the gentle cow. How could I take care of an elephant, .l wonder? If some day in the future I should be heard singing a number from Wfannhauserl, or should be seen writing a prescription for Mr. Smithis dog, you will know that brotheris or grandmother's ambition was forced upon me. But don't worry. lim not easily manageable. Dorothy Vlfenz.

The frolicking freshmen have changed into the studious sophomores who adorn this page. On September 10, 1936, we had a class meeting. The following members were elected as class officers: President, Doris Dickison, vice president, Beatrice White, secretary, Alice Lasher, treasurer, Frank Gustavson. ln Miss Rich, our class adviser, we feel that we have found the only one who could fill the place held in our hearts by Mr. Pembleton in highest esteem, and feel greatly indebted to him for his example of good fellowship, so significant when one finds oneself in the perplexing position of a freshman. Among the social functions of our two years have been a successful Hallowe'en party and a gay Valentine party. Our lucrative endeavors have consisted of two bake sales in our freshman year and one in our sophomore year. The total gain for the bake sales was 555200. On April 23, l937, we had a Sophomore Sioree at which many people spent a felicitous evening. During our two years in high school we have been well represented in activities. ln basketball were the following: Vivian Smith, who was the first freshman to get a letter for girls7 basketball, Betty Corbin, Jack Jones, William Parker, Frank Cieslak, Edward Swan, John Beasman, and Norman Williams. Alice Lasher and Ruth Walling were cheer leaders. In our freshman year, Hugh Stephenson won second place in prize speaking.
