Senior Class Officers Pete Vardcr Barbara Abbott Marilyn Icmes Stuart Chestnut President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer SENIOR CLASS HISTORY e, the sophisticated seniors of Garfield High School, started on our career as a united group in the fall of 1941. Being unorganized until late in the year our activities were hamper- ed and we spent most of the year adjusting ourselves to high school life. ln December a suc- cessful Christmas party was held in the hall, and in the spring the following officers were elected for the year 1942-43: Pete Varda, president: Bob 1-lemeier, vice-presidentg Shirley Ham- rick, secretary: Louise Paitson, treasurer: and Miss Latta as our class sponsor. Back again in September, 1942, we started on an enjoyable and profitable year. Be- sides supporting the Student Council, Victory Corps, and Red Cross drives, we enjoyed varied social activities. As a starter we had a skating party on February 26 at the Third Avenue Rink. In April we celebrated the first with an appropriate party, and again on the twenty- third we enjoyed a Sweet Sixteen Party. The year 1943-1944 began with the restoring of a Garfield tradition, the Royal Purple, under the direction of Miss Becherer. Alex Balu, presidentp Dick Nicoson, vice-president: Dorothy Pickett, secretary: and Warren Brewer, treasurer, proved successful executives. ln April the popular junior show was called the Manhattan Manhunt. june brought the annual junior party and the social event of the year, the junior-Senior Prom and banquet held in the Mayflower Boom, june 3, with Fred Cizek's orchestra furnishing the music. At last, in the fall of 1944 we attained the long-awaited title - seniors. Our officers were: pesident, Pete Vardag vice-president, Barbara Abbott: secretary, Marilyn james: and treas- urer, Stuart Chestnut. The senior class play, Family Reunion, was successfully presented November 1, with a capacity audience attending. Other activities included a sock dance in the gym, December 5, and the senior Christmas party, December 22. The january seniors culminated their graduation week with commencement at Woodrow Wilson, january 17. Sen- ior talent was again displayed in the senior revue held on February 7. A Shamrock party was given March 16 in Lange Auditorium for seniors and their guests. Almost before we knew it, june graduation activities were at hand f a picnic, senior breakfast, baccalureate and finally commencement in the traditional formals of Garfield. As the end of our four years at Garfield draws near, we wish to express our sincere ap- preciation to our sponsor, Miss Marie Latta, and the faculty for the patience they have shown and the help they have given us. May we bear proudly the title - Garfield alumni. 1 Page Eighteen
