SENICR CLASS HISTORY We, the Class of 195 0, have had our share of studies and more than our share of fun.

Assisting him were Jean Driscoll, Bob Bean, Jean Swett, Ellie Briggs, Kathleen Zeiner, and Dwight Harvie. Our Sophomore year saw Buddy Cook as President, Joyce Hobbs, Norma Smaha, Jean Swett, Marilyn SeeHusen, Speed Valente, and Earl Harriman as the other officers. 'iSpeed Valente presided our Junior year. Serving on his staff of officers were Kathleen Zeiner, Jean Swett, Norma Smaha, Marilyn SeeHusen, Jean Hassett, and Buddy Cook.
