UNIOR CLASS HISTORY The Shrimp boats are coming and so are the Juniors coming to the throne as Seniors. We have notoriously achieved this honor after striving for eleven years to reach the end of our goal. As 4'Young Saplingsi' we must admit we had a very striving class. VVe started this hectic year by breaking in two new teachers, Miss Smith and Miss Remaley. Our parties were quite exciting and will go down in history as being very vivacious. Our Freshman year was the beginning of our newly acquired high school years. We are now convinced we took it boldly. Opening our Sophomore year we elected class officers and commenced to build up our treasury department. Our bake sale added much to our petty Fort Knox. This was the year of the immortal Slip Slop Quartet. We will never forget their quivering in the min- strel. They finally pulled through with high honors. We were proud to contribute Marion Harvey and Frances Stojakovich to the May Queen Court. The girls were very successful in inter-class basketball that year winning the championship, while the boys contributed their talents to the Varsity. We were also proud that year to send Maryann Mikan as our donation to County Chorus. At the beginning of our present year we chose as President, Evelyn Morrow, Vice President, Bill Ogle, Secretary, J, P. Owensg and Treasurer, James Sage. We wish to thank the officers for their co-operation. To earn greenbacks for the annual prom, we sold magazines which proved not too suc- cessful. Also, we held a dance which was profitable and sold Christmas wreathes. Representing the Student Council were four capable students: Dave Josephic, Presi- dent, Jim Wracker, Vice President, Maryann Mikan and Mary Jean Ruffo. Chosen by popular vote Maryann Mikan and Mary Jean Ruffo represented the Junior Class in the May Queen's Court. On the gridiron we were proud to have donated our talent. Among those were: Tom McHugh, Dave Josephic, James Kelly, Joe Mazur, James Sage, Delmar Koepka, James Majernik, Jim Owens, John Kerin, Bob Smeltz, and Jim Morocco. WVe are looking forward to a successful season next year. Continuing their position as majorettes we have Dorothy Banasik, and Frances Stojako- vich. Marion Harvey and Anna Mae Nabuda are our peppy cheerleaders. Contributing to Mr. Trembathis Quintet are: Eddie Lenart, Dave Josephic, Joe Mazur, John McCann, Tom McHugh, and Graham Grubb. The basketball team has proved fairly successful. The Junior girls and Junior boys decided to match their basketball ability in an official game. The grudge game turned out with the boys on top winning by a few points over the well proved girls. This game was played under girl's rules. P. Owens seemed to get quite excited when the girls would surround him! All in all we had a very enjoyable eve- ning. We added another face to our Junior Class. A real southern rebel named Jim Moore. Jim hails from the famous winter resort, Flori- da. Having never seen snow before he came to Trafford, we were just as excited as he when the first Hakes fell. Jim Texv Moore resides at Duquesne Avenue and can be seen driving a blue Ford. Having gained a new student we lost two. Bob Smeltz having moved away is now at- tending North Huntingdon High School. He left us after our reading of the tragedy, Mac- beth. We can understand his leaving after the great Shakespearean play. Also, Harry Corl left our notorious Junior Class. To the ever progressing Trafford High School Band we donated our own: Graham Grubb, Maryann Mikan, Violet Klimovich, Dorothy Banasik, and Frances Stojakovich. To the newly organized color guards Marion Ludmann and Mary Jean Ruffo were chosen. Mr. F erri deserves great credit for his achieve- ments. In the Minstrel this year as end men were Tom McHugh, Jim Morocco, and Eugene Patrick. ln the dramatic field we put on our pro- duction of Thats' My Boyf, Portraying the characters were: Jim Moore, Jim Wracker, Anna Mae Nabuda, Frances Stojakovich, Don Schopp, James Sage, Dorothy Banasik, Mary- ann Mikan, Jim Julian, Tom McHugh, Mariet- ta De Frank, Mary Jean Buffo, Audrey Schel- ler, and Violet Klimovich. We wish to thank Miss Smith for her help in making the Junior Class play a success. We close our Junior Year with our hearti- est thanks to Mr. Heaps and Mr. Ruckle our sponsors. . ,
