JUNIOR CLASS Juniors! The very name carries a sound of dignity, though it fairly rines with good fun, with triumph and success. And the name Junior es- pecially applies to the class of 24; for what class has the same wide-awake, oo-eet-it spirit, and how could any other class be so light-hearted and happy as we are all the time? Of course, it’s true that we occupy an exalted posi- tion, being not only superior to Freshmen and Sophomores, but also on a par with the Seniors, though not burdened with the troubles of Seniorhood. We have participated and won honors in many affairs of the Student Body, in athletic and dramatic events. During our Freshman year, our girls’ soccer and baseball teams triumphed over the other class, while Sophomores in soecer, and as Juniors, we triumphed in basketball and soccer. The boys of our class have figured largely in all athletic events this year, and last year. We won the Freshmen-Sophomore debate last year. Most of the pep which is generated at Student Body affairs is aroused by the yell-leader who is a Junior. As for the talent and originality of our class, witness the assemblies we have put on each year, and our three plays this year. We feel that our Junior year has been most successful, aided the first half of the year by the able leadership of Mr, Carpenter, our plays were very successful: and then the second semester our paper drive, Class Assembly, and Junior-Senior banquet owed their success to Miss Waterman, who certainly planned and supervised undertakings very capably. We also wish to thank Mr. Wheeler for his very kind assistance in the paper drive. Caroline Palmer.

SOPHOMORES Our Sophomore class is the best in the state, We’ve worked very early, we’ve also worked late; Aside from our work we’ve had just lots of fun, And these are a few of the thines we have done. The first on the list was our jolly class party, The fun it waxed furious, the laughter was hearty. In our gym it was held—with its trimming and lehts It looked like a scene from ‘‘ Arabian Nights.’’ When trials and troubles were filling the air, For comfort and guidance we went to Miss Bear. No problem too tangled for her to unwind, A better class teacher you just couldn’t find. At Yule-tide we also were filled full of elee, For what did we see but a huge Christmas tree! ‘Une’ Walt’’ and ‘‘Skeezix’’ were there in full force, And those who were absent were filled with re- morse. , Most important of all, I here wish to state, The Sophomores won the Fresh-Soph debate. On Valentine’s day it surely would seem As if you were a part of our ‘‘Midsummer’s Night Dream.’’ Our Sophomore boy (just to be up-to-date) A radio-club organized—best in the state. Two fine little song-birds in our class have we, One’s Howard Irwin, another Marie. So this is the hist’ry of our class to date, Next year we’ll be Juniors, and start a clear slate. With best wishes to all, and our dear teachers too As Sophomores now we. did you adieu. —Dorothy Wolf. ?
