Its activities and accomplishments, besides having had a high scholastic record, were many. The English class, under the supervision of Mr. Carroll, organized ’’The Commentator's Club, which had programs once a month. Betty Brandon was elected president and Harvey Weimer, vice-president. The sophomore Latin class was represented by Betty Jean Shierling and Jane Davis in the annual county Latin contest. The social side of life was also touched in their activities. They have enjoyed many social hours, parties, and upon one occasion, a sleighing party. This latter frolic was an enjoyable adventure and was followed with hot chili and dancing at the school house. Another big event of the year was the patriotic party in February. Betty Jean Shierling was crowned Queen of Hearts at this gala affair, which was a big success. The sophomore class was not surpassed in the number of boys participating in the basketball and baseball squads.

In correct business manner officers were elected early in the school season. These officers were: Jean Parent, president; Emerson Porter, vice-president; George Hill Jr., secretary; and Adabelle Mangas, treasurer. Miss Mabel E. Ward was class adviser. One of the highlights of the year was a picnic in the Greenville park in the fall. After a weiner roast many of the students went in to the theater. The rain that continued to fall all evening dampened everything but the spirits of the group. And there are few juniors who, when thinking of social events, will not remember with tingling joy the jolly sleigh ride the class took in January. In May the class gave a delightful reception for the seniors. Funds for the class activities were realized from the sale of season basketball tickets and Christmas wreaths. All year there was a small but steady revenue from the sale of student basketball tickets and from the check room. And finally the day came when the class cast its last vote on its colors—which proved to be black and white. The junior class was also well represented in extra-curricular activities. The following were on the student council: Victoria Barth, June Hart, Adabelle Mangas, Emerson Porter, Paul Leatherman, George Hill Jr., and James Thokey. James Wickersham, Alan Ortlip, Emerson Porter, Glen Dillon, Paul Leatherman, Paul Wigger, and Philip Tibbetts were on the basketball squad. Juniors on the fall baseball team were Paul Leatherman, James Wickersham, Emerson Porter, Paul Wigger, and Glen Dillon. Victoria Barth, Rosemary Harrison, Anna Ruth Romeiser, and George Hill Jr. represented the junior class in both the band and orchestra. 13
