The Junior Class i-IE JUNIOR CLASS, as a whole, is probably whaT one mighT call a Teacher's dream: Tor iT has, since iTs Treshmen days, consisTenTly shown an exceedingly high scholasTic average, regularly carrying oTT The monThIy and semesTer awards. lT would seem ThaT such a class is oversTudiousg however ThaT is noT The case, Tor The iunior class has shown ThaT iT has TalenT in oTher Tields. lT has obTained awards in dramaTics, girls' and boys' inTramural aThleTics, ediTed several excellenT ediTions oT The Academy, and presenTed several unique class programs beside carrying on The oTher cusTomary work oT a class. AlThough Three years have passed since iT enTered iTs shorT high school career, The class has reTained iTs original idenTiTy, making iT possible To develop a class spiriT which iT hopes will noT die. AlThough The class seemingly reached iTs peak during The lasT year by obTaining one oT The highesT class averages ThaT has ever been aTTained, The members realize how small Their accomplishmenTs have been in compari- son wiTh whaT musT be evenTually accomplished in The coming year, if They are To keep up Their high sTandards. One oT The members oT The class received The plague which is given To The besT acTor in The school, and who has consisTenTly disTinguished himselT in all The maior dramaTic producTions. The girls oT The iunior class, who unTil This semesTer were only Tive in number had Their somewhaT depleTed ranks Tilled a biT when Two new girls joined The class. WiTh This added sTrengTh They came Through To win The swimming meeT oT The senior high school. 20

The Sophomore Class S THE VERY name sophomore comes Trom a Greek word meaning sophisri- caTed, iT is boTh pleasing and surprising To reTlecT on The acTiviTies oT The sophomore class during The pasT year. In all school liTe, exTra curricular as well as academic, The sophomore class has been a viTal parT oT ThaT splendid organ- izaTion, The Milwaukee UniversiTy School. An ouTline OT iTs parTicipaTion in aurside acTiviTies is a splendid way To demonsTraTe This. In aThleTics, TirsT oT all, The class has been very well represenTed. There have been boys on The varsiTy TooTball, baskeTball, and swimming squads, and They can boasT oT aT leasT one leTTer winner in each oT These sporTs. The girls, Too, have been acTive in aThleTics and have been consisTenTly among The winners in Their inTra- mural and gymnasium conTesTs. Secondly, a review OT The Tine DramaTic Club work shows ThaT a greaTer number oT sophomores have parTicipaTed in This Tield oT endeavor Then have The members oT any oTher class. In The commencemenT play, as well as boTh groups oT one acT plays, There have always been a large group OT sophomores playing many oT The leading and supporTing parTs. This speaks well Tor The class, as The plays were a greaT success. The new sysTem which has been Tollowed during The pasT year as To The publicaTion oT The Academy, gives each class Two chances To publish iTs own ediTion. lT is inTeresTing To noTe ThaT boTh oT The sophomore ediTions were very well received by The members oT The TaculTy and The members oT The sTudenT body. Our class has had Two ouTings during The lasT year. The TirsT was a skaTing parTy held in January aT The Milwaukee River. A large percenTage OT The class 22
