66144 o i5I Which class is the most fun to be in? The junior Class!! Although we study hard and don't seem to get anywhere, the Honor Roll, for instance, we enjoy life at W. H. S.-even our classes. You can't get a group of us together without blinding at least one comedian. We have Don Fogg, who keeps his bookkeeping class laughing, and Fred Wilson and Reggie Christensen in College English. The other day when we were studying we heard Freddy say, Don't throw it! followed by the crash of some' thing hitting the window. It seems that -Ioan wanted to send him a pencil by air mail. The only way there could be a dull shop class would be for both Louis McGlauflin and David Golder to be absent. Even our mishaps are fun looking back on them, like the time in chemistry class when Loraine Kneelen thought she drank the HQSO4. Miss Miller's Com- mercial English class always brings the day to a bright end. VVith Bill Cary, Bob Morton, and Betty Secord the class always finds something to say about the girls' basketball team. Bob MacHardy will never live down the excuse he gave Miss Bonville for not knowing his French. He said he couldn't learn it all in the 10 minutes he spent on it. Ours is the first class that has been given aptitude tests. At the time we weren't too happy about it, though. We got writers' cramp from filling out forms beginning with our life histories. Wife also got stiff in our joints from sitting still so long. This was made worse every time the bell rang, and the other classes got up and moved around. They certainly didn't help matters either, when they looked in and laughed. We also got a head start by forming a Vkfashington Club our Junior year. We joined with the understanding that if some of us want to drop out next year, we can get our money back. Our intramural teams are doing better this year. How could they help it? We have put on a chicken-pie supper and a Scotch Auction. The Scotch Auction was a new idea. Anyone could get in cheaper if he brought an inexpen- sive gift to be auctioned off. Next year we plan to be first on the Honor Roll, first in Intramurals and to graduate 1002 strong. VIRGINIA SMITH.
