jlbi— - --y0i The Walnut Tree J0} Junior Class History N the fall of 1927 a class of twenty-nine unsophisticated Freshmen were enrolled on the tablets of Walnut High. Through the next nine months we were struggling along with unregretted subjects. Of course it was not all grief and sorrow, for with our work was mingled one or two parties and picnics. Although the class’ business affairs were few during this year, Margaret Baumgartner as president did all she possibly could with the support of the class. So the year was completed successfully. 1 Ah! But the next September we came back with the feeling of knowing all and owning the whole building, to see the Freshmen become confused in the halls of knowledge as if we were never guilty of such errors. During this Sophomore year Lois Guither’s leading ability as president proved most effective on the class’ gains. Towards the end of the year we began to see and realize the real value of the time we are spending here and more thought and earnestness were put into our work. 1 As Juniors we entered into the real class spirit visualizing the many things to be accomplished the coming year. From the class of twenty-nine only nineteen remained from which we chose Kenneth Edson to be our president. With his influence and willing service the class has entertained the Seniors and faculty at the usual banquet. In January we presented a play entitled “A Reed in the Wind.” Much of this success must be accredited to Miss White, who has always been our class advisor, whose patience, ideas and willing help have made our ideals possible. CJ Every year the class has presented at least one assembly program. The Junior class has always been represented in athletics, orchestra, glee club and the dramatic club.
