Vile felt more than a little like a circus attraction as we entered our hrst year of senior highg the 'fkidsf' fseventh and eight gradersj, watched us with respect and admiration, the adults ffrom the sophomores upl seemed to be waiting for our first mistake. We didn't do much in our freshman year except to elect our officiers -- Pres- ident. Dick Hurnsg vice-president. George Trost, treasurer, Merwin Smith, and secretary, Carol XYeimer. During the course of the year. we gave our first dance. which was moderately successful. David Kilby took top scholastic honors. Sojilwuzore Yeczrflhis year it wad our turn to condescend to inexperienced Freshmen, and we took advantage of it. Dick did an encore as president, aided by Francis lles as vice-president. Kay Ful- ton as secretary and George Trost as treasurer. This year we gave a dance which couldn't be termed a glittering success. jane Cackett left ns for the lure of a little house in the country. but we gained Thornton. alias VVillie, Maloney. Da- vid Kilby got the highest grades again, in spite of tlhe pitfalls of Latin ll, which kept his competitors in abeyance. Jzmioz' Vmr-Roosevelt and Burns were both serving a third term. but Roosevelt was handicapped by not hav- ing George 'frost for vice-president. Wanda Szlosek for secretary, and Ted McPhee for treasurer. Our finances this year sunk to a minus quantity, however, we managed to bring a good voice-speaking choir from U. li. A., give one dance, and finally, at the very last minute. provided the socially traditional junior Prom, which glittered but was a financial black out. Senior' Year- Kay Fulton became president on a 'ANo fourth term plat- form: George Trost is yice-president, Mary Bailey, secretary. and 'lied Mc- Phee, treasurer, This year, we have put on a number of dances after basketball games, and 'held an or'chestra-accompan- ied round and square dance.
