JUNIOR CLASS, HISTORY On August 30, 1937, thirteen little explorers boarded the rocket Education to make an eleven year tour of the planets. The seats were occupied by Rozanna. Chaney, Bernadene DeVries, Ronald Harms, Ruth Hamblin, John Henry Primus, Betty Raska, Ruth Rose, Dean Ruby, Gene Ruby, John Stutzman, Bernadine Van Hove, Kenneth Woodley and Mary Sapp. The rocket was piloted by Miss Elaine Thompson. Our first stop was on the planet Jupiter. We left Betty Raska, Mary Sapp, Bernadine Van Hove, and Ruth Rose on the planet and then ascended to Mars where we picked up Dale Stull. During our visit DeLoris Keil, Wilma Johnson and Olga Kremenak took over the pi1ot's seat. On our third trip we ventured to Mercury where Mary Sapp and John Kigerjoin- ed us, with Dorothy Eckel as our pilot. Dorothy Chaney and Harold Rosburg took the place of Mary Sapp and Kenneth Woodley on our trip to Neptune. Sarah Speer took over the duties formerly performed by Dorothy Eckel. Lucile Tjernagel took the pi1ot's seat for the next two years on our trips to Pluto and Saturn. We left Ruth Hamblin at Neptune and Harold Rosburg at Pluto. Ronald Harms and Dean and Gene Ruby stopped at Saturn. At Uranus, we took on Lucy Janssen as our new pilot, with only six of our group left. Last, but not least, we visited Venus, Meredith Baker as our pilot. We added two passengers, Arlis Polley and Jesse Knight and then returned to Earth to spend the remaining three years of our journey. Our first year on Earth, Miss Alice Wonder, Mrs. Wilma Rosenberger, Mrs. Aurelia Halasey, and Kenneth Amsberry, were our pilots with Ted Kolthoff, Wayne Hoing, Colleen Crosser, Ruth Rose and Genevieve Nederhoff as new passengers. Later we dropped Colleen, Ruth and Wayne. On our second year on Earth we neither addednor subtracted any of our group. Lloyd Simester took the place of Miss Wonder. At present we have eleven explorers, Dorothy Chaney, John Kiger, Rozanna Chaney, Bernadene DeVries, Genevieve Nederhoff, Jesse Knight, Ted Kolthoff,Arlis Polley, John Primus, Cecelia Harms, and Dale Stull. Miss Carrie Van Wyck, Marion Van Dyk, Lloyd Simester, and Kenneth Amsberry are our pilots. This brings our exciting and eventful tour of the planets to a close for another year.
