Yes, the same class that started off its career so well in its Junior year established quite a name for itself in its Senior year. With the student council a progressive reality, the class endeavored to make it a success. Music in the gym and cafeteria were introduced and other worth-while projects were started. The Observer , which formerly occupied only a Weekly page of a local newspaper, blossomed into a four-page spread planned and Written entirely by students, many of Whom were Seniors. It's Dreamtime was the theme of the ever popular Senior Prom and it was acclaimed a success by all. As graduation approached, the class grew more aware of its im- portance as the namesake of the 49ers who opened Wide the golden gate of the West, for this theme was carried not only by the Herald , the com- mencement program and the Class Night play, but also by the Seniors themselves as they left their golden days behind and prepared to become prospectors of life.

C H ARLES MERTZ The Class of 1949 started its career in the midst of a rapidly advanc- ing student life in A.C.H.S. The Constitution Committee which provided the groundwork for the Student Council, had three Junior representa- tives and the interest of every member of the class. With the heralding of spring came the fulfillment of the promise of a prom never to be forgotten as the orchestra played Black Magic and hundreds of students, freshmen to seniors, congratulated the class on its success. At their finger-tips and waiting simply for the beginning of their Senior year was a test for the best, that of being the first class in A.C.H.S. with a Student Council. 1 PAGE 22
