WILLIAMSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL JUNIOR CLASS President f gf f , JOSEPH LEONARD Secretary ffff MAR JORIE RIST Vice President f f MARTHA BROWN Treasurer ffff DONALD BRELOS Another Junior year is about to pass into oblivion and needless to say we have enjoyed the wonderful cofoperation of the teachers and pupils. Our Junior party was held March 21, and was very successful both financially and socially. The gym was beautifully decorated in green and white, our class colors, with dainty refreshments being served. We are proud to say that our class has been able to furnish quite a number of girls and boys for the different sports. When we enter Williamsville High School next year we will become The Seniors and we hope those who take our places as Juniors may enjoy the year as we have. MARJORIE RIST, '31, Secretary SOPHOMCRE CLASS President f f f f BURRIS TAYLOR Secretary f - f EMERSON CARL Vice President f f RICHARD BOEBEL Treasurer f f f f f CARL SEITZ On Friday, October 31st, the -Sophomore Class held a meeting and elected the above oihcers. We were proud tofsend Burris Taylor and Helen Boss as our repref sentatives to the student council. Miss Connor and Miss Wetherbee are our class advisors. Among our many class activities, the one which was the most outstanding, per- haps, was the Latin II play. This play, entirely in Latin, was put on by the Latin II A class, and, although it was not intended to be a polished production, it was a great success. Its mention in the Amherst Bee made us feel that our time was well spent. There were also some English playlets, by the English II A class, which were enjoyed by the entire high school. We hope to have as good success in our class work as we have had in our class activities, and so go into our Junior year one hundred per cent. EMERSON CARL, '32, Secretary FRESHMAN CLASS President f f f RICHARD KUNKLE Secretary f f f FRANCES BYRNE Vice President f f f ALICE NEFF Treasurer ffff NORMAN MEYER Although the Freshman Class of this year is not so large as last year's class, every' one in the building knows we exist. Shortly after arriving in school last September, we were taken back to our kindergarten days by the cruel young sophomores who decided to tie bright colored hair ribbons on the innocent heads of the freshman girls and to adorn the boys with huge bow ties. Many of our boys are good athletes, but cannot quite outdo the girls who so gracefully hopped about the May Pole on Arbor Day. They were rewarded for their efforts, however, by having the privilege of planting the only tree on that day. Last but not least, the Freshies are proud to see so many of their names on the honor roll this term, and we hope that next year's class will have as enjoyable a year as we have had. , FRANCES BYRNE, '33, Secretary 25

'XVILLIAMSVILLE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council of 19294950 elected its officers at the Hrst meeting. Those elected were: President f f ROBERT BAKER Treasurer f f ROBERT JENKS Secretary f f f MARY DUKE We immediately set to work in selling tickets for basketball games. Our next adventure was to name our cafeteria. The name we finally decided upon was Students' Inn. h We have been carefully and thoughtfully planning a Code of Ethics for the sc oo. At the close of the basketball season, we sponsored a great athletic banquet in honor of all the boys who fought for W. H. S. SERVICE AWARDS This year we have decided to give honor awards to those who have rendered special services. In the various athletics, baseball, basketball, and football, a boy can receive a letter at the end of each year of service. However, at the end of three years, a boy will receive an honor sweater with stripes on the sleeve to indicate the number of years of service. He will get one only if he is recommended by the coach and passed by the Council. The following boys have worked nobly, and they justly deserve the sweaters which they have received: Roy Gray, Alfred Long, Robert Jenks, Austin Rist, Edmund Widler and Chester Bourne. For the other activities, HSEARCHLIGI-IT, orchestra, dramatics, and Student Counf cil, a senior who has served on one of these activities for two years will get as an award a gold pin. Any other pupil rendering three years of service, who is recom' mended by the head of the activity, and passed by the Council, will also get a pin. This pin will be designed with the school seal, plus the activity, and the number of years of service. Upon recommendation of the instructor and a twofthirds vote of the Council, an award of sweater or pin shall be given to a pupil for special service, although he has not been able to fuliill the required number of years. A boy or girl may receive no more than one service award in either athletics or other activities. The Council of '30 appreciates the support of the student body, which was needed at various times throughout the year. MARY DUKE, Secretary 27
