zmimf Mrs Hirfomf We-ll, here we are juniors! It wasn't so very long when we were Freshmen. At that time we numbered one hundred fifty-three. The lirst day the members of the Student Council squired us around the building. Wlien we were more familiar with the schedules and other items in our daily program, we elected ofhcers. Selected as president was Maurice Vonckg vice president, Irene Meyer, secretary, Helen Browng and treasurer, Dick Freshour. Student Council representatives were Don Breese, Dick Livingston, Nancy Fox, who was replaced by Kenneth Ritter, and Patsy Lewen, suc- ceeded by Martin Freshour. In our sophomore year a mass meeting was held in the auditorium to promte the raising of funds for the lights in our football field. We, as the sophomore class, raised the largest sum. That year we were the rulers of the lower halls. Kenneth Ritter reigned supremely as president with Gene Mills as vice president, janet Hintz as secre- tary, and Dick Freshour as treasurer. Don Breese and Dick Livingston were re-elected as Student Council members with Betty Parker and George Hauter. Dances! Rings! The Prom! All these things we have had in our junior year. Ah, what a wonderful time we did have. Oh, yes, our very able Student Council mem' bers were janet Hintz, jane Smith, Betty Parker, Edith Rabbitt, Kenneth Ritter and Don Breese. Now we are lookinff forward to our senior 'ear at Cla Hi fh. If it's half as ex- zp I Y ab citing as our junior year, we will be more than satisfied.
