Nickachiou Mr. E, Endicott Junior Classes always have busy times, and this year’s class was no exception, but under the leadership of their two efficient advisers, they had a very successful year. They began their very active year by winning second place in the inter-class play contest, with “Dates Incorporated.” There are some very fine actors and actresses in the class, and this play uncovered some new and unused talent. On December 5, the Junior three-act play was presented. Black Wings”, by Charlotte Eldridge, was the first mystery to be presented in Union for a number of years, and proved to be a grand success. Some of the characterizations were difficult, but the Juniors gave their very best ability to make the play one of the Ix'st to lie given here for some time. During the year, two skits were presented, the first during the football season, took place in a school room, with the “pupils” each reciting a rhyme to fit the occasion. The second skit, during the basketball season, was in the form of a debate. The class is very proud of its athletic standing, having a number of football, baseball, and track players in the class, besides having three of the first five on the basketball team, Don Chenault. Robert Terrall, and Robert Kohler. The Junior girls won first in inter-class basketball, with La Faye Cline being high-point girl of tin-whole tournament. Vivian Gray won first in extemporaneous speaking at Linfield College, and Bill Sheening, at the same tournament, entered the finals in after-dinner speaking. Besides all this, it is not to be forgotten that the Juniors successfully gave the annual Junior-Senior banquet, one of the biggest events of the year, and decorated for baccalaureate and commencement. The class considers this a successful year, and they will go forward to be outstanding Seniors.
