OcctUoM Small but mighty was the Junior Class of 1944. Marriage, patriotism, and the speeded-up educational program reduced our numbers but the “old faithfuls” car¬ ried on! Our officers were James Bohrer—president, Pat Hallinan — vice president, Ruth Joyce Johnston — secretary, and Marjorie Heylmun — treasurer; but of these only Pat remains — the others decided to join the ranks of the Seniors. . . The Juniors were well represented in all branches of campus activity ... In fact, one almost could say that we took the lead . . . For example, Joyce Grigsby and Pauline Neucks, co-editors of the LinC were both Juniors . . . Other literary minded classmates were Eleanor Wright who served as business manager of the Crescent and Paul Caywood, one of the columnists (the Wash Man) on the Crescent . . . Serving on the Women’s Council were Pat Hallinan and Joy Lee Mundy . . . After the SGA secretary graduated at Christmas, Joyce Grigsby was elected to fill that position . . . President of the Thetas was Marjorie Shelley . . . Gracie DeLong was treasurer of the YW. Junior Members of the All-Girl choir were Pat Nesbit, Gracie DeLong, Janet Frank, Arlene David, Pat Hallinan, Dorothy Haynes, Peg Reising and Bettye Irons Baugh . . . Secretarial Club officers included Miriam Tirmenstein as vice-president, Esther Kaetzel as secretary, and Pauline Neucks as treasurer . . . The athletic juniors who held offices in WAA were Virginia Mattingley, president; Miriam Tirmenstein, sec¬ retary; and Marjorie Shelley, treasurer . . . Secretary of ACE was Arlene David — participating in the Thespian production “Ladies in Retirement” were Paul Cay¬ wood and Pauline Neucks. Paul was also secretary-treasurer of the Thespians — Treasurer of the Catholic Club was Pat Hallinan . . . Pat Nesbit was an Alpha Phi Omega — Junior members of the Debate team were Pauline Neucks, Pat Hallinan, and Marjorie Shelley . . . Charles Buck and Jean Lindenschmidt were elected to Phi Beta Chi and Jean was president of this Honorary Society. . . Juniors who served on the Student-Faculty Federation Committees were: Pat Halli¬ nan — Assembly; Gracie DeLong — Fine Arts; John Grant — Promotion; Paul Cay¬ wood— Public Speech; Pauline Neucks — Publications; and Miriam Tirmenstein — Welfare. . . Representing us on the Dean’s List were Bettye Irons Baugh, Charles Buck, Esther Kaetzel, Jean Lindenschmidt, Virginia Mattingley, Joy Lee Mundy, and Miriam Tirmenstein. . . Diamonds were copped off by Joyce Grigsby from Eddie Williams and Esther Kaetzel from Clark Hardy, while Bettye Lou Irons became Mrs. Evan Baugh and Nancy Ann Cox became Mrs. Leighton Taylor. . . In spite of smaller numbers and fewer social events the end of our Junior year leaves pleasant memories of happy school days . . . And next year, why we’ll be Seniors! tV 29
