JL THE SENIGR CLASS In keeping with the tradition established by senior classes of the past, so also was it this year . . . the seniors were the leaders of Jesuit High School. The many accomplish- ments of this year's senior class are both varied and lofty. In the beginning of the year the seniors found themselves in great need of money to sponsor the many projects which they were to undertake. However, this turned out to be no real problem, as the class of '55 initiated and spearheaded a Magazine Subscription Drive throughout the entire school. Within a two-week period, sparked by the hard work and leadership of the seniors, a net profit of nine hundred dollars was realized. As a result of this successful drive, we received a letter of high commendation from the regional director at San Antonio. The two main purposes of this money were: first, to sponsor the Junior-Senior Prom, and secondly, to present a gift to the school in memory of the class of '55. Annually, the seniors sponsor one big formal dance for the entire school . . . the Winter Carnival. For weeks following this dance, students talked about it, acclaiming it the best ever held. Louann's . . , Dallas' exclusive night spot . . . was the place of the Winter Carnival and the versatile Robert Moss and his orchestra provided the music for dancing. Besides the Winter Carnival, the Prom, and a gift to the school, the senior class also sponsored such minor activities as the handball and volleyball tournaments, the TCIL championship parade, and others. These successful events helped to establish a healthy spirit and teamwork throughout the school. Although it has not taken place as yet, in keeping with past tradition, the senior class again expects to win the Mission Drive and to spark the entire school to a first-place finish in the entire Jesuit Province. The success of this year's senior class can be attributed to these three factors: lj leadership, 25 work, and ESQ teamwork. The senior class officers supplied the leadership, and every member of the senior class always backed every project with coordinated hard work.
