13 th YEAR CLASS The 13 th Year Class has been well represented in all the major activ¬ ities of the Jaysee. Headed by President Clifford Campbell, with Beatrice Dickie secretary and Bill Curry as representative to the student commis¬ sion, they have taken active part in sports, dramatics, and other activities sponsored by the student body. Outstanding in sports were Clifford Campbell, Don Hall, Mel Slade, and Norman Skadan during the football season; Slade and Arnold Cornett in track, and Russ Jordan, Norman Skadan, Clifford Campbell and Charlie Clark who represented the class in basketball. When the tennis season rolled around, Alex Ayers, a 13th year student walked away with top honors for the Conference. Other 13 th year students in the tennis team were Howard Pence and John Draper. The Battery staff depended a great deal on the able assistance given it by the following members of this class: Betty Berton, Robert Tucker and Alethea Sisson. At a recent tea given by the Battery staff, Robert Tucker was unanimously chosen to be next year’s editor. At the same time, Beth Falkenberg was elected the next editor of La Reata. In the first annual Jaysee play, both the hero and heroine were 13th year students and other important parts were taken by members of the class. These included Melba de Closs, Clifford Campbell, Beatrice Raiter, Doris Dimock, Bill Curry, Beth Falkenberg, Robert Hutchings and Gerald Rogers. Ed DeMattos did a splendid art job in La Reata.
