e fi Ki 9 I w f J Hi-Lites of 1939 We expect a great deal of our class ofhcers. They may be our future political leaders. Who knows7 The Senior Class officers talked over the plans for their social program for the year. Note the smiles on their faces, maybe they are discussing their Roller Skating party where many of the Seniors were down more than up. Mechanical Drawing is lots of fun. Glenn and Eddie are intent on their work while Philip and Harold Gnd time to play in spite of Bram- mer's presence. Happy Dancers go into their dance as Phyllis, Betty jane, Sophia, Ruth, Florence lind, Alice and lflorence Young strut out on the stage. Maybe you remember the Uakmont-Verona game. Can anyone forget it? Klisky and Wild talked it over with the referee while the injured Acklin looked on. junior Class officers must have a funny bone in their soup. lvlaybe they are counting their funds for the junior-Senior Prom. Now the Sophomores are really serious-minded individuals. President Mauro with his pencil in hand tells Irene and Phyllis what he expects done. Consequently they did things, too. Many dances were held in the school gymnasium this year and truckin'on down, shaggin' and doing thc Suzy-Q were tried out by all. The Seniors Christmas Dance with the gym lighted by dim blue lights and a colorful Christ- mas tree was one of the most attractive affairs of the year. The .Juniors Heart Hop in February with red and white decorations was another hi-lite and the Sophomores too came in for their share of popular dances. Certain assemblies will be remembered for the interest they created. Rev. E. V. Condron from Springdale and his interesting talk on Room-mates, which was sponsored by the Hi-Y Club was excellent. I-le entertained us royally relating his experiences on a recent Mediterranean trip. The Leaders Club presented a Musical Fashion Show giving us styles for school wear, riding and dancing. When a debate was presented by the Debating Club, many stu- dents were shocked when they found it to be interesting instead of dull as they had expected. The Staff Club pre- sented an interesting skit in assembly later as did many of the other clubs. This plan of club sponsored programs in our assemblies was a new idea of the recently organized Student Council. I3 IUNE 1939
