Treasurer Student Council Ellen Lovely Eleanor Jacques George Demmons One of the highlights of this year, was entering a float in the Deerfield Fair. The class had just as much fun making the float as winning first prize. On November 22-23, 1954, the class presented a play. Nine Girls. The whole class participated in this affair and we are proud to say it was a success. After it we had a swell time at the party given by Mr. and Mrs. Leskowit .. The senior class sponsored the Christmas party for the school. We were represented in many contests this year: In the Essay Contest by Beverly Thiem and Norma Witham; at the Prize Speaking Contest by Joan Mi hachik and Beverly Thiem, who took second prize; and by Joyce Merrill who won third place in the Art Contest. Norma Witham was chosen as the I)AR citizen from the senior class. Shirley Folsom went to the Older Girls' Conference this year. Joan Mihachik won the Betty Crocker Future Homemaker honor this year She also went to the Youth and Government Conference. In April, we received our announcements and sent for our caps and gowns. We started working on our year book and everybody had his part to do. Class Prophecy.............................. Joan Mihachik Norma Witham Glass History ..........................

The old class sure has made some progress since the year we graduated. Let’s wander through the crowd to find out what each one is doing.” “Here is David Freitas. Hello, Dave! Just what are you doing these days? You own your own Buick garage and drive one every year in the Pan-American Road race? We’re sure glad to hear you’re doing so well, Dave.” “Why, there's Beverly Thiem! She’s been doing quite well. She’s now pri- vate secretary for the law firm of Todd Todd. Beverly always was a good office w'orker.” “Look who’s driving up now! It’s Everett Robinson! Everett is now top electrical engineer for the Atomic Energy Commission. He’s working on the new H. G. M. Project. I’m sure it will turn out better than his hot-rod Ford project.”
