THE JUNIOR CLASS As the happy and good-natured Sophomores of 1934-35, now to be Juniors, enter the doors of good old W. C. H. S. a new atmosphere is placed upon the thoughts of all students. We, as the Junior Class hurriedly organized with the following persons as officers: Billy Perkins, President; Jim Robbins, Vice President and Helen Delaney, Secretary-Treasurer, in order to fulfill the place which was left to us by our good friends, the Seniors. Our first law to be passed was the buying of the class ring which was done by a group of five. Later, December 3, the ring! arrived in time for the Junior play “Huckleberry Finn” directed by oun faithful class advisor, Mr. Hammitt. Our class theater party came next which was followed by a chilli supper at the home of Annabel Faith, chaperoned by our class advisor, Miss Zorger-The time passes on with our class well represented in all activities At the Alumni Homecoming we performed as a stunt an operation behind a sheet. The high spot of the year was the Junior-Senior dinner dance. This year we entertained them at Sunnyside. Jim Robbins ’37 —22—
