Nerd Accidentally Joins JSA not JSA

Litiz, PA- Tragedy struck Wednesday at Warwick High School, when Isaac Hendrix accidentally joined the Junior State of America.

According to sources close to the victim all the problems began with the year's first activity schedule. It all began when Hendrix, 14, a comic book enthusiast, looked at the list of various clubs that would be meeting during the course of the school year.

"It was all pretty standard stuff." said Arthur O'Malley a friend of Hendrix's, "You know, FBLA (Future Business Leaders of America), Drama Club, German Club, Debate Club, the stuff everyone has. Then, Isaac saw something and he couldn't believe his eyes. He read it three of four times, but his eyes were right."

"I saw JSA and I couldn't believe it," Hendrix said at a press conference Thursday afternoon, "I mean I hadn't heard that the Justice Society of America had Auxiliary branches in the first place, much less here at Warwick High."

There was a reason that Hendrix had never heard that the Justice Society of America had a Youth Auxiliary. They don't.

At 8:05 Wednesday morning Hendrix arrived at Troy Fillmore's classroom for the meeting of the Warwick High School chapter of JSA. It didn't take long for Hendrix to realize something was horribly wrong.

"The first sign I had that I was in the wrong place was that they didn't mention any of the names of the members of the JSA. No Hawkgirl, Wonder Woman III, Sand or even the Sandman, that was when I began to suspect that something was wrong.

Something had gone wrong. Isaac Hendrix was not at a meeting of the Justice Society of America Youth Auxiliary, but in fact at a meeting of the Junior State of America, a student-run group for youth interested in politics.

The Junior State of America, which has served to inform students about the wonder of Democracy since its founding in 1934. Despite a name change from the Junior Statesmen of America in 1968 the mission of the group has remained the same.

When asked to comment, JSA Warwick Chapter President Heidi Gray said that this was the first time that anyone had ever confused the two organizations, to her knowledge.

When asked what he thought about the fact that there was no Justice Society of America Youth Auxiliary, Hendrix Said, "I knew that it was too good to be true."

Hendrix however, does plan to remain a member of the Junior State of America. "After all," he said, "I did pay them five bucks for membership."

Maybe it's one of those secret underground schools.
