The juniors under the supe1'vision of Miss Nelle Cook have two organizations which none of the other classes have. They are an Advisory Committee and a Representative Council. The Advisory Committee consists of the defeated candidates for otiice. For the Representative Council Miss Cook has asked each teacher to pick an outstanding junior in his or her tirst hour. Miss Cook says that she feels free to ask this committee to do anything she wants, but their main duty is the getting of news to the junior class by announcing in each of the first hours any- thing that she has told them to announce. The juniors' biggest activity of the year is the play, Three Cornered Moon, with Doris Shull, Bar- bara Benton, Bruce Greeno, Henry Donlon, Kenneth Pringle, Virginia Lee Green, Donald Gosney, Bob Osborn, and Adelyn Peterson dramatizing the pro- duction, which will be given in February. The committees for the play had not yet been selected when this article went to press. The Sophomores The largest class in the school, the Sophomores, petitioned Jim Burwell, Jack Forbes, Jo Ann Rob- erts to run for president: Martha Jean Johnson, VVayne Martin, and Henry Schaible for vice-presi- dentg Betty Jean Claxton, Dale Dronberger, Jane Grippen, and Samuel Lind for secretary: Walter Cook, Jack Giesch, and Don Graves for treasurer. The election results made Jack Forbes president, Martha Jean Johnson vice-president, Dale Dronbe1'- ger secretary, and Don Graves treasurer. The sophomores with Miss Judith Stapleton as their sponsor have very few activities except the joint assemblies with the freshmen. It will, how- ever, have the pleasure of being the first class to graduate which has spent all four years in the new building. The Freshmen The freshmen candidates for the different offices were Bert Ross, Frank Ja1'nevic, Albert Svaglic, Dorothy Miller, and Wayne Landis for president: Charles Johnston, Billy Widder, Bill Wright, and Bill Kauffman for vice-president: John Dyerson, Donald Gholson, Edith Lord, Mabel VVhite, and Ema- leen Meyer for secretary, Ralph Johnson, William Ralifa, Edward Scoles for treasurer. From this group of aspiring candidates came President Dorothy Miller, Vice-President Bill Wright, Secretary Mabel White, and Treasurer Ralph John- son. The joint assemblies with the sophomore class is the only activity the freshmen class has. Standing: Cooper, Miller, Gooding. Seated: Miss Mcfanles, Rankin. Standing: Boddington. Williams. Seated: Bliss Cook. Shull. Standing: Dronherger. Forbes, Grave Seated: Miss Stapleton, Johnson. Standing: Johnson. Mr. Bergman, Wright. Seated: White. Miller.
