Anne of Green Gables, presented by the ll1Hi01'S, lived to its guarantee of getting a hundred and twenty-five laughs from the audience as Well as making supersalesmen of the en- tire class. Doreen Cook as Anne kept everyone roaring from the first scene to the last curtain with her vivid imagination. Unforgetable also were Sally Wingate as Marilla, the un- emotional old maidg Jerry Hyndman as Gilbert Blythe, the heroic youth who saved Anne's life, captivated her heart, and even fought a duel with Edward Sargent as Moody, the bare- foot farm boy. He impressed the audience uproariously by his, UI lc-rung your pigwbacklu Dorothy Guthrie did a good job as Mrs. Alexander' Spencer, despite her shortness of breath. No one ever asked poor Rachel Lynde's, Betty Rengel's opinion of anyth Other victims of Anne's imagination were Lois Wolf, gntsiaine Oppy, Lois Harris, Winifred Wilson, Alice Staley! and Audrea Hill. E v -Heading the ticket sales, in which every member of the dlass participated, were Roanna Argo and Faye Cain, and captains Joan Mercer, Pat White, Bob Dare, and Edward Sargent. They must have been pretty good because 860 tickets were sold: Winner of the S5 prize by selling 75 of them was Zoe Ann Colties. The cast was directed by Miss Helen Louise Crouch, and for the thousand other responsibilities necessary to make the perfoimance a success, much credit goes to the junior spon- sors, Miss Kirkhuff, Mrs. Bingle, Mr. ODDY, and Miss Erma Foster, head sponsor. We are sure the school joins with George Weber in saying, I can't say as it was and I can't sag: it wasnt but I'm sure it was the best play I ever saw. -v, - , ,s ,,.,..n .

I ful, fellow classmates, with leaders J 'ke at ho cou vve help surpass all other classes? Th nio ass can also boast of each one of its mem- bers. We had one junior boy on the first team basketball, se- veral ers on the second team. Three, of the four debaters are niors, and practically the whole junior class went out for ootball, speaking of the boys of course. Then we also find that a large percent of the Boys Glee Club, Girls Glee Club and A Cappella 'Choir are made up of juniors. M7 . Now you see that with all these things, and there are lots more but we do not have the space to write them all down. Now you see why the four grades below us and the one above us can't help but look at us with both awe and admiration. And now to complete our story we want to tell you just a little about the best banquet ever given in W.H.S. Our theme was The End of the Rainbowf' -and it was carried out with .. . f the rainbow in decorations, place cards, and in 'th ogram. The banquet and prom were enjoyed by all at- L. , 01.6 .

These boys have led t1'eir class in a big way in school activities. Many of the second team in basketball were their classmates as were two mem- bers regular starters on the football team. Harold Rogers was on the Ark Valley team in two sports. On the dramatic side, Lou Ann Baumgartner was in the all school play, Roger Davis became a known debaterg everyone had a part in the sopho- more party on April 18, and the gang took an ac- tive part in keeping the Rec alive. If anyone has any doubts as to who is a soph- omore, apply thisttest: they talk more and listen less than any class in school. For all that they are at heart a good fclass in many ways. Meet the freshman, below, the group who tra- ditionally get introduced to Ivanhoe and even- tually meet The Lady of the Lake-eg yea, and should they not learn 'tTlie stag at eve had drunk his fill, they are not considered properly initiat- ed into senior high wisere all who tread have pledged themselves true 'nrglits of Wellington. Charles Tibks was elected jinior high fedora- tion president after a close race with Benny Waugh and Dorothy Kissick. As usual twelve de- serving boys and girls were chosen for the Lions Awards, and honored in an assembly in May. To create interest many clubs were formed for the freshman and the rest of the junior high. Several bowling teams with senior high girls and Miss Foster formed a league and offered much competition for each other. The junior high dra- matic club presented a play for assembly as they learned the fundamentals of dramatics. Jxl. lf get ' - I- ' f A if Freshmen iz
