Page 23 text:

 Early in the year, seniors elected their officers through home room bal- loting. They chose to represent the class: Leonard ''Gabby'' Gordinier for president, Ray Schmidt for vice-presi- dent, Chester Monson for secretary, and Marion Mitchell for treasurer. The duties of the secretary and treas- urer include taking care of the caps and gowns, a most important part of grad- uation week ceremonies. The president, representing the senior class at Senior Recognition, takes part in the ceremony of the spoon. He pre- sents this big wooden spoon to the presi- dent of the junior class, bidding him take good care of it and carry on the traditions of the school as the incoming senior class. Since the seniors produce the Cauldron, there is a tradition that this spoon mixes all the ingredients that go to make up the yearbook. At the exercises on Class Night the president's role is as the chief-giver of the gifts. This gift-giving is a very humorous and enjoyable part of graduation. Each senior is presented with some small gift selected according to his personality or hobby. Statistics gathered from the principal's office with Connie's help show that the graduating class has made a favorable record during the four years. The num- ber who entered at the beginning of their freshman year and were still here as seniors is 217 out of a total of 321 in the freshman class. During that year five more enrolled who were registered as seniors at D. G. H. S. The seniors of '41 total 264. In respect to the honor roll, the class improved scholastically each year, but curiously enough it did as well in its underclassman years as in the iast two. As freshmen, they took fourth place with a percentage of 10.7, and 31 stu- dents on it, in the first semester's roll. As sophomores the percentage jumped to 13.8 with 40 students, although they still tied for fourth. As juniors the num- ber dropped to 25 students, 8.8 per cent, but they took third place. Their last year saw them jump ahead, capturing first place with 12.9 per cent on the roll. Together with a good showing in sports and extra-curricular activities this indi- cates a successful climax to the four years. Ninoteon
