The Junior Class In the fall of nineteen hundred and twenty-two, the class of ’26 enrolled as Freshmen in the new building the first class destined to spend four years in our new school. The membership numbered forty-eight. The class had been organized in the eighth grade, and in that first year of our existence, class colors were adopted. As Freshmen we were as green as they mak’em, but we learned as fast as they made us, and when the next harvest season drew near, we arrived as Sophomores, numbering thirty-three, still going strong. As Sophomores our class had a prosperous year both financially and socially We can truly boast that we sold and consumed more hot dogs than any other class in the school. We entertained the Juniors (Class of ’25) at a Hallowe’en Party. In co-operetion with the Juniors we entertained the Seniors, and in co-operation with the Juniors and Seniors entertained the Junior High School at a Washington Party. In the due course of time and events we became Juniors, twenty-nine in number-not so much on quantity now, but the same old quality. The class officers were : • President v Alfred Delor Vice-President Evelyn Watson Treasurer ... Harlow Mcno Secretary Donald Distlerath The advisors were: Mr. Paul Schalm, Miss Eleanor Maltpress. As juniors we have attempted to do our share in the school community life; we have furnished our share of the athletes; we published the Red and Blue during the last half of the school year; and we have found a means whereby the paper can be published without a deficit. We sincerely hope that this plan of publishing the Red and Blue will be carried on by the Junior Classes of the Future, and become a tradition of the school. Socially, we entertained the Seniors with the best Junior-Senior Banquet ever given in this School. As Seniors, we are anticipating a trip to Washington. Although there is noth- ing definite as yet, the class is working to this end We hope to publish one of the best Annuals ever produced by a graduating class. Incidentally we hope to study 29

hard. In all, we hope to fill the shoes of our predecessors. We feel that we can fill the canal-boats of the two large-footed members of that class because of our larger number. As Juniors we wish to congratulate the Class of ’25 for the ends they have attained, and the tasks they have so faithfully performed; and when you are gone from our school we hope to fill your place with the same pep, and spirit. Again we congratulate you. 30
