Junior High School started off in September with sixty new seventh graders promoted from Morton. These were honored at a Girls’ Club tea in October. Tea Dances and a Dad-and-Daughter banquet in November, a new but highly successful enterprise for Junior High, helped to make these new students feel more at home in their new surroundings. In November, too, the ninth grade class put on the comedy. “When We Were Young.” Two casts worked hard to surpass all previous ninth grade productions. A consistently interesting and varied program of convocations brightened the winter days. The Junior High School Choir contributed the cantata, “Legend of Sleepy Hollow”. A shadow tableau of the life of Christ was an impressive celebration of our Lord’s birth. One morning we were surprised with a delightful program of colored films on Mexico—a trip taken and explained by Mrs. Stahl. Then one February after- noon we rushed back to school to hear a patriotic talk by Mr. Sherwood. Good Friday was observed with an early service at which the Reverend Gunneman gave a very inspiring talk. Miss Inskeep’s Nature Club has found enjoyment, as usual, in hikes and trips. Girl Reserves met once each week. Have we almost forgotten athletics? You bet not! Not when seventy-five boys in the two intra- mural leagues fight for places on the winning teams and also for places at the banquet table arranged for the winners by the Girls’ Club. Mr. Byers and Mr. Cornell could be seen rushing to the gym every Monday and Wednesday evening to referee those games, and on other days Miss Coulter was discovered grading papers while the boys practiced. The Junior High School students have backed the varsity team one hundred per cent. You should hear the yells led by our yell leaders! Rod Wallace is a member of the Boy’s Cooking class. He also gets A’s from Mr. Byers. We wonder if there could be any connection? One day there was an appetizing odor of ginger bread emanating from Rod’s hands as he and John Dye ascended the stairway to the second floor. The alert Student Council, under the guidance of Mrs. Gowdy, has been responsible for the splendid showing in the sale of stamps and bonds and the Red Cross Drive. Good old Junior High! We shall hate to leave you! Page twenty-one
