In the fourth grade Dallas Freeman left during the year. We were again under the direction of Mrs. Basart. As fifth graders we were happy to have Dallas Freeman back. Miss Verdys Brown was our teacher. We welcomed Orlin Brown into our class during the sixth grade. We were di1'ected by Miss Phyllis Graham. As seventh graders, entering Junior High, we were under the supervision of Miss Lorene Anderson. As we reached the eighth grade our class began to grow. We added Jeanne Widman, Beverly Aalbers and Eileen Greene. We were supervised by Miss Marion Hinz. As green and humble freshmen we entered high school, and, after initiation we settled down to business. Our class was enlarged by eight with the addition of Sandra Allen, Carla Blue, Kenneth Hamen, Gary Marx, Loren Moore, Geraldine and Jean Poppen and Larry Windedahl. Our class advisors were Mr. Holzwarth and Mr. Mohlenhoff. u When sophomores we lost no one and gained no one. Our class advisors were Mr. Holzwarth and Mr. Christensen. A .

Our prom theme was Moonlight and Roses, and the music was supplied by Leo Fortm. Our class advisors were Miss Sanders and Mrs. Root. Now at last we were seniors. Publishing the Annual was a lot of fun and we enjoyed staging the senior play, Seventeenth Summer, by Maureen Daly. Our play, given on April 20th, was directed by Mrs. Root.
