In the fall of ’53 the freshmen elected Larry Sittner as class president, Clarence Hiegel as vice president, who later served as president when Larry Sittner moved away, Dick McGee as treasurer, and JoAnne Hubbard as secretary to lead us through our first year. For our class sponsor we chose Mr. Butts. Mr. and Mrs. Jake Krantz were elected for class parents. For freshman entertainment we held two parties and a class picnic. We were very proud the night that we beat Gering and won the N.P.V. championship. Our sophomore year was a very successful one. The class officers were Eddie Schaff, president; Stanley Collamore, vice president; Janice Buckhammer, secretary; and Wanema Cummings, treasurer. Our Student Council representatives were Karen Korell and Sandra Burden. Our sponsor was Mr. Tillman and Mr. and Mrs. Jake Krantz were our class parents. JoAnne Hubbard was crowned the first basketball queen ever to reign at B.H.S. As sophomores we decorated the gymnasium for senior baccalaureate. We felt privileged to serve at the Junior-Senior Prom for which the theme was Moonlight and Roses. For the big job ahead of us during our junior year we elected Sandra Burden as president, Karen Korell as vice president, Pat Nerud as secretary, and Gwen McKie as treasurer. Our sponsors were Mrs. Cunningham and Mr. Knepper. Representatives were Jim Krantz, Stan Collamore, and Dale Schoeneman. Janice Buckhammer was elected football queen. We were proud of our first class play, “More Than Meets the Eye.” Our biggest project was the Junior-Senior Prom with Candyland as our theme. School traditions were handed down to the following students: Book of Knowledge, Sandra Burden; School Spirit, Karen Korell; Athletic Letter, Harvey Eirich; and Honor Yoke, Larry Sittner. One of our most thrilling moments was when we received our junior class rings. As seniors we worked harder than ever. Our senior officers were Larry Sittner, president; John Liakos, vice president; Gwen McKie, secretary; JoAnne Hubbard, treasurer. Our class sponsors were Mrs. Mansfield and Mr. Stine and our class parents were Mr. and Mrs. Jake Krantz. Our Student Council representatives were Jim Krantz, president; Karen Korell, secretary; Dick McGee; Sara Contreras; and Pat Nerud. Mr. Mekeel helped us with our class play, “The Skeleton Walks.” We sold magazines to finance our class projects, then we worked very hard to assemble the “Tiger” under the supervision of John Liakos, editor; and Sandra Burden, associate editor. Mrs. Mansfield was the sponsor. During an impressive induction service Dick McGee, Larry Sittner, Alan Plummer, Fauna Trout, David Cunningham and Judy Speer were tapped for National Honor Society by the old members, Karen Korell, president; Pat Nerud, vice president; Charlotte Comstock, secretary; and Sandra Burden, treasurer. Our DAR representative was Pat Nerud. The senior class presented its share of B.H.S. royalty. The royal couple who reigned over the Band Ball were Sandra Burden and Jim Krantz. Eunice Kaiser was a lovely football queen, and Pat Nerud and Tom Vera reigned over a successful basketball season during which Bayard won the District Class “B” Tournament. The seniors were entertained by the junior class at the Junior-Senior Prom which carried a theme of Deep Purple. Seniors who were chosen for the Hall of Fame were Pat Nerud, Janice Buckhammer, Jim Krantz, and Tom Vera. The Seniors enjoyed a trip to the Ice Capades at Denver. On May 6 they sneaked away to spend, a carefree sneak day out of school. The seniors completed their last year in which they followed their motto, “Be not simply good, be good for something.” Class night and Baccalaureate came in rapid succession and then graduation. The ceremonies followed the senior’s theme, lavender and white with the class flower, the orchid. As the dignified strains of the graduation march filled the air, the class of 1957 received their diplomas and passed slowly out of Bayard High School.
