Q Etta A 1 ll 1 1 JUNIOR CLASS The class of 1930 are eagerly awaiting the hour when we pass from the seats that we now occupy in the assembly room to those in which the present Seniors sit. Not that we wish to be rid of the Seniors, but we have been spend- ing the past six weeks acquiring poise and dignified carriage so that we may cross the aisle without stumbling. The iirst year that the University High School began there was no seventh grade, although this was added the following year. It was at the latter time that some of' the present juniors began their career at U. high. VVe were all supposed to act and speak and walk just so, for those were the days when towns- people spoke of Model high. The particular thing which is remembered as more or less of a class pro- ject was the presentation of the signing of the Declaration of Independence by Miss Hoyle's eighth grade Civics class. Many are the times in more recent History classes when Thomas jeffersons or Charles Carrolls have been asked to recite on their deeds of a century and a half ago. In the eighth grade, we were initiated into the mysteries of Project day, the Christmas assembly with the procession which we have grown to love, the two Purple and Gold teams with the Winter and Spring meets, and the awarding of Citizenship, Scholarship, Athletic and Block U honor letters. The ninth grade year is one of various memories. By this time the class was quite sizeable, and the female portion proved more deadly in their distract- ing performances during home room periods. The results were reaped in the Sophomore year. Under Miss Olson's direction an operetta, The Family Doc- tor served to amuse an assembly. Library periods became generally known as hours for ball games, tiddledewinks and general conflabs. Hence the library rules of the present. The final picnic at Delhi in june was a fitting conclusion for our Freshman year. It is said that as Sophomores we became more dignified. Or was it the new library rules? Or the fact that the girls' home room was cut in twain and half of the culprits given over to torment Mrs. Powers? Mr. Froh ably managed the other half, and Mrs. Powers proved worthy of her task likewise. Miss Hayes and her boys keep the happenings in their home room very dark, but some- times there were rumors of uproar in there, too. At Thanksgiving a major part of the class presented Silas Marner under the direction of Miss Green- land with the help of Mr. Williams. We noticed how well they worked to- gether even at that early date! From Thanksgiving day program to the final assembly in June seemed but a very little while. In the fall. we came back juniors to lind that Mr. Froh had gone to Grand Rapids. We were very sorry to lose him for the group, but we have gained a friend in Mr. McGeehee who came to take the place which Mr. Froh left vacant. Mrs. Powers' home room led the other two divisions a merry chase in this year's tardy contest-not to mention locker inspection. One member of our class made the first team in Basketball. Two others made the newly tContinued on page 255 24 M I A 4 .,,. 'E A45 3 1. -Lf ' 1'
