essay contest with Virginia capturing the medal. Betty Lou Nafe won the D. A. R. essay contest, and Jacque Robb captured the Vories Debate medal. The end of 1943 found us anxious for our senior year. The fourth act promised to be a hit performance. As the curtain rose our spirits were soaring. The balcony boomed with Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah 1944, Rah, Rah, Rah, Rah 1944-Boom, Seniors Rah! l The capable Lyle Kingery was elected to the lead again. His assistants were jack Skinner, Ioan Hyde, and Ruth Gower. Bill Moery was chief yell leader and was assisted by Bob Miller, Bob Bernstein, Barbara Lewis, Phyllis Dedman, and Beth Varley. ' The R. O. T. C. had a busy year under the Lt. Colonelship of l'Pat Kingery and Lt. Colonel Sponsor Betty Lou Nafe. Nancy Lee was elected by the students and faculty as our D. A. R. Pilgrim. Two senior girls, Rebecca Wigton and Maxine Mickey, were finalists in the Hesperian essay contest with Rebecca the proud winner. Ioan Hyde was chosen Sports Queen. Members of National Honor Society consisted of Lyla Donley, Mary lane Hopkins, Nancy Lee, Priscilla McCabe, Betty Lou Nafe, Gladys Speakman, Rhea West, Bob Bernstein, Bob Evans, Dean Hanna, Bill Moery, Sidney Pepper, and Bill Storer. The senior act in the vodevil was a one-act play You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet, written by Virginia Carson and Betty Lou Nafe. The vodevil play Two Crooks and a Lady was a success, with Barbara Lewis, Phyllis Buchanan, and Dale Parker as actors. The Christmas play Voices was enacted by Virginia Carson and Betty Lou Nafe. The much awaited senior play went off with a bang under direction of Miss C. Gralick. Actors and actresses playing the parts in Letters to Lucerne were Beth Varley, Barbara Lewis, Ioan Hyde, Bill Moery, Virginia Carson, Mary Nell Smith, Gerald Gerken, Dale Parker, Betty Lou Nafe, George Williams, Dorothy Major, Phyllis Buchanan, and Don Heath. The Yearbook staff was headed by Nancy Lee, June McCabe, David Thomas, and Tim Taylor. Editorship of the Centennialight was handled by Don Heath, first semester, and Sidney Pepper, second semester, while Betty Lou Nafe was business manager for the year. In the field of sports the stars were many-this list included Dickerson, McDon- nell, Hanna, Shelly, Coburn, Skinner, Kingery, Boyd, Nimmo, Griffith, Venable, Bemstein, Ludwig, O'Connor, Patterson, and Evans. Topmost in every senior's mind was the urge to help in the war effort. In the victory parade, we turned in three jalopies for scrap, which netted. Sl5.00. We also won a 525.00 prize for the best jalopy entered in the scrap parade. The war booth was open every day, under the direction of Dean Hanna. Nearly 56,000 worth of stamps and bonds were sold. All members of the class participated in the monthly paper drives, and those who brought at least 150 pounds of paper one month received an ED award. We collected over 27 tons of paper in three drives, which netted the class 328500. In February we purchased a Thousand Dollar War Bond to be pre- sented to Mr. Heaton at commencement to go towards our class memorial. Our caps and gowns are on the way and there isn't much more class history to be made. We've had a happy life in old Centen and it is with a tear and a smile that we leave its beloved halls and rooms. One more rousing cheer and we'll leave dear Centen but no matter where we go or how far we go, we'll never forget these four happy' happy years' -BETH Lou NAFE. 4 3 Page N inetee
