N. Wbxwpwnnm.. . .- Aw-wh,-, ,,3.g94q1.k,- no Junior High RACTICABILITY AND ORIGINALITY have been the background of the Junior High School activities for the 1940-41 school terms. Under the leadership of Miss Cecil Mason, principal, Miss Florence Toedman and Mr. Richard Wilson, the Junior High held Open House May 8 to exhibit its year's accomplishments. Academic achievements were displayed--personal wood- work exhibits by the boysg and the Junior High Home Economics department serv- ed refreshments. Letters were awarded to those who were on the honor roll the entire year, or in the upper five per cent in the Emporia Every Pupil contest, or who placed in the County scholarship contest. The DONG Radio Program proved beneficial for would-be public speakers. Every student sometimes during the year gave a talk or some form of entertainment. Occasionally outside speakers were guests. The Home Room system in the Junior High develops future leaders for the High school. The four home rooms this year elected a new cabinet each six weeks. These groups sponsored the chapels and the president was taught to receive the principal speaker, introduce him and all other courtesies that are customary. Parlia- mentary rules were used. The Junior High was represented in the High School Band, Orchestra and Beginners Band. During Music Week the vocal organizations presented a Stephen Foster program. A large number in the chorus for the Christmas pageant were Junior High students. In the realm of athletics the Junior thinclads and cagers convinced the Yates Center sports fans of thrilling and victorious years to come. Against Class A and B opponents the basketeers won 17 of 26 contests. They captured the Tom Thumb Tournament at Lebo and were runners-up to Eureka in the Yates Center Invitational. 27
