Junior Class Officers President, Jerry Grube; Vice-President, Doris Misch; Secretary, Shirlee Williams Treasurer, Karen Deerberg; Senators, John Tillema and John Kopchik JUNIOR STORY On September 4th the familiar shuffle of feet again was heard in the halls of W.H.S. and another school year was under way. To the Juniors, this meant nine months of hard work nixed with an equal amount of good clean fun. At the first class meeting, four competent class officers were chosen to lead the Juniors, and two well-qualified senators to represent than in the Senate. The class immediately began working together to help fill the hole in the class treasury. Their first project was the selling of blue-glass plaques, which helped greatly to push the treasury goal forward. They also sold school pins, pennants, and caps, and followed the footsteps of previous Juniors by selling candy at ballgames and at noon. One of the most thrilling experiences in their uhole school career is when they are Juniors and receive their class rings. Admiring ohs n and ahs are heard for weeks, and no one could be prouder or more excited than the Juniors themselves. Then came the playl The anxiety of those who tried out for parts was overwhelming, but after all the fun was over, everyone agreed that the play ms not only a tremendous hit, but well worth all the effort. No other school event would put the proper final touches on the Junior year like the Junior-Senior prom. And here, the class of ’54 wishes to tip their hats to Miss Stroup, their sponsor. She helped make this year a pleasant one for them, and because of that, they will look forward to their senior year with added enthusiam.

Sophomore Class Officers President, Kenneth Jones; Vice-President, Henry Bays; Secretary, James O ' Connor; Treasurer, Linda Green; Senators, Forrest Campbell and Donald Kisch sophomore story Between the green freshman and sophisticated juniors comes a very dignified group called Sophomores. They have conquered their frightful first year in high school and are now taking the steep second step toward their diplomas . , To begin a very active year, the class of ' 55 realized the necessity of selecting efficent class officers. They met this challenge, as well as many more to ccme during the year, with good common sense. Like you associate pupils with school, you think of the Sophomores initiating the new freshman class. Although, the initiation has now been discontinued, memories of being a freshman will always remind us of our initiation. A very deserving hand also goes to their sponsors Mrs. Hanley, and later. Miss Staith. As a method of replenishing their treasury, they began a magazine drive. For the carnival, the boys elected Cheryn Minor their choice for queen. Their winnings boosted the source of supply . Not to be outdone by upper classmen ' s rings and pictures, the Sophomores ordered navy blue and -hite sweaters. All agreed that their sweaters added a very distinguishing note to ' the halls of Wheatfield Hi$i. Next year this class will fill the shoes of triumphant juniors and, because of how capably they have handled this year ' s problems, there is no doubt in our minds that they will again pass with flying colors. — h | ’irst Row: Betty Allen, Etfwin Allseitz, Bethel Bailey, Carson Bailey, John Boesch, Jesse Collins, Thoraan Conley and Shirley Davis , 1 - - I,, 21 Bit:
