1952-1956 Hi there, Pat. Are you the senior class president this year? Sure, and I'm really proud to be. We've certainly got a swell class. In our freshman year we were supposedly a little green, but we still got into the swing of democratic elections by voting for class officers. They were Bob Berry, Richard Winkelman, Carol Gorman, and Ellen Christensen. Jo Ellen Hoffman and Tom Newell were our first Homecoming candidates. During Christmas time, we showed the upper-classmen that we knew something about art by winning first place in the decoration contest. Our display in the upper hall was a portrayal of the Christmas story. At Council Carnival our candidates, Donna Jo Falkenstein and Paul Rednour, were runners-up, being edged out by only one vote! For our sophomore year the leaders of our class were Richard Winkelman, Lois Carlson, and Janet Ackerman. Carol Leonard and Terry Asbury were our Homecoming candidates. For Christmas we decorated the stairway in the main hall- way as a church. Although it took second place, we thought it was outstanding. We started our victorious streak by winning the Council Carnival crowns., Donna Church and Bob Harms were queen and king. Our theme for the Tri Class Dance was 'Gay Carousel. ' Heading our junior year were Ronald Goetz, Tom Newell, Kay Cooper, and Jo Ellen Hoffman. We had a happy Home- coming by seeing our candidates, Sallie Strate and Marvin Schuster, crowned as queen and king. Having the stage to de- corate for Christmas, we made the shepherd scene which took first place. At a tense Council Carnival, Carol Gorman and Jim I-Ioines, our candidates were the reigning pair. The total amount of votes cast was more than ever before. A record breaking crowd enjoyed our Junior-Senior Prom, 'Orchids in the Moonlight! Well, here I am to the last year. Our senior officers are yours truly, Bob Harms, Lucille Stauffer, and Dorothy Johnson. We were really on pins and needles this year at Homecoming until it was accounced that our class had won again. Judie Howlett and Roger Steinke were our candidates.
