JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY As August, 1945 drew near, twenty-seven students from various schools were planning to enter Troy High School to get a higher education. These eager pu- pils were: Charles Brinksneader, John Brock, James Kuntz, Donald Poole, Joe Saunders, Maurice Shepard, Roy Wise, Charles Young, Betty Lou Abney, Berneta Anthony, Priscilla Cravens, Juanita Edwards, Juanita Engelbrecht, Helen Epple, Mildred Foerster, Edna Hessig, Clara Ann Lamar, Betty Lorenz, Melinda Munier, Charleen Moore, Mary Iris Scott, Betty Jean Snyder, Mildred Sturgeon, Lucille Weedman, Olive June Wheeler, Norma Winchell, and Margorie Winkler. Before we had completed one week of work, Betty Lou Abney and Mildred Sturgeon withdrew. And so the twenty-five went on together until December, when Joe Saunders also withdrew and moved to Kentucky. Of course we thought that there would be no more withdrawals during the rest of our Freshman- year, but we thought wrong. With the death of her mother, Olive June Wheeler with- drew and in the early part of April, Berneta Anthony withdrew. Thus our class was left with a net result of twenty-two. Freshman officers were: president-Mary Iris Scott, vice-president-Charles Young, secretary-treasurer-Maurice Shepard, student council members-Don Poole and Juanita Edwards, class reporter-Betty Jean Snyder. Mr. Munier was our class sponsor. Our class was well represented on the basketball squad. All the boys ex- cept Roy Wise were on the team. Juanita Engelbrecht won the Sewing Award and also first place in the style show. When we came back to school for another year of education, we found that Charles Brinksneader, John Brock, James Kuntz, Don Poole, Edna Hessig, Betty Lorenz, and Charleen Moore had not returned. During this year, Juanita Edwards was elected cheer leader and the three and only boys were out for the team. Sophomore officers were: president-Juanita Engelbrecht, v1ce-pres1dent- Betty Jean Snyder, secretary-treasurer-Juanita Edwards, Student council-Maurice Shephard and Mary Iris Scott, reporter-Edwards. As we bade farewell on the closing day of school of our Sophomore year, we thought we would all meet here again in the next September to start the third year in our interesting educational project. Again we thought wrong--Roy Wise was going to school at Louisville and has now joined the navy, Mary Iris Scott has started to school at Evansville, Helen Epple and Juanita Edwards remained at home, Norma Winchell enrolled at Troy High and also at Tell City High where she is now going to school. Charles Young quit school in the early part of the first semester of this school year. Mildred Foerster quit school in the latter part of the last semester. And now we shall complete our Junior year with seven girls and one boy. With the one and only boy, Maurice Shephard on the basketball team and with Priscilla Cravens as a cheer-leader, our class did its part to bring the Trojan team victories. When we were Freshmen we had seven boys in our class, thus we could enter the class tourney. We entered but for no good cause as the class of '48 won the tourney. The other years we have not had enough boys in the class to enter in the tourney as a class, therefore as Sophomores we entered with the Grades. Since there is only one boy in the class this year we will not compete in the tourney. Junior Class officers are: president-Melinda Munier, vice-president Maurice Shephard, secretary-treasurer-Clara Lamar, student-couno1l- Maurice Shephard and Priscilla Cravens. Priscilla is also our reporter. Since next year will be the last year of fun, work, and trials we will have together we will work hard to make the rest of this year a success so we may have the privilege and thrill of receiving our diplomas together. ,.--V-v---1 -... ,.
