Betty Cooper, Sally Bissell, Dick Snell, Roger Howes This was the year that brought the Seniors of '51 to the time when they too would march proudly down the aisle for their command performance. You all know I'm referring to graduation. Yes, graduation is here, but first let's slip behind the scenes to last fall. It was the beginning of our Senior year then. We all realized that the officers we would elect to serve us must be the best. We did get the best in Roger Howes, president; Dick Snell, vice-president; Sally Bissell, treasurer; and Betty Cooper, secretary. Bob Hansen and Leo Green were elected to serve us on Student Council. Miss Kistler, Mr. Robinson, and Mr. Swanton directed us. We plunged whole-heartedly into our school work and outside activities, knowing we were in the homestretch. Among our extra activities were the Senior Play and the Hay Loft Hop and of course putting out the Hi-Life. Before the last curtain falls and the last bows and honors are received, let us say something from our hearts. We Seniors of '51 will miss Greenville High School and all it holds for us. We hope to go on to finer, greater living, but we shall never forget GHS. To the graduates to come, may you always do your best and you'll find the stage of the world yours to play upon. ten Compliments of Highfield’s Drug Store
