History of the Junior Class (Dedicated to Sisters Theresa Marie and Anastasia) In the year of “39” ten shy freshmen joined a small army which invaded all of the subjects which were given in that year. After a time this small force overcame “Latin,” repulsed “Algebra,” and turned back “Health.” In the beginning of the sophomore year this force lost two of its com- rades, but drafted another. This did not slow up its fighting force as much as one would think. It did not take as long to overcome its enemies as it did before. It readily defeated “Latin’’ and ‘‘Geometry’’ and came out ‘Victor.’ In the fall of the following year nine gay soldiers took up their fight again. Chemistry was the strongest of the invaders, but they soon overpowered it. It soon came time for the planning of the banquet. This was the greatest task the force undertook. The class elected Collins Redmond and Ladonna Shoudel as its commanding officers. As the day draws near we look for the opportunity when we will graduate from St. Joseph High. We, the members of the Junior Class, wish to take this opportunity to thank our beloved principal, Father Bennett, our teachers, Sisters Theresa Marie and Anastasia for the time and toil they have given to us as our leaders. Sophomore Class History We, Sophomores, after having finished eight years of elementary school, found a more interes'ing kind of education when we entered our first year of high school. An initiation ceremony opened our activities. Then came studies which included Latin, Algebra and Biology. During the year we enjoyed many school functions such as our school club's parties and dances. At the end of the period of nine months we closed our school year by attending the annual banquet held in honor of the Seniors. At the beginning of our second year we had the distinction of initiating five new classmates. Our minds were again turned to studies. The activities held during our second year were somewhat similar to those held the pre- ceeding year. Some of the successful projects we helped with were: bingos, lunches, and candy sales. There was also a breakfast prepared by the Sophomore girls which proved very successful. We, the Sophomores of ‘45, as a whole, sincerely wish to thank Bean of our teachers who have helped us during these two years of preparatory study. Richard Riedhart
