Rosalie Jablonski, a very competent vice-president, promoted class projects in such a capable manner that all seniors were more than satisfied with their selection. The sparkling personality of Secretary Marilyn Kane is reflected in her minutes of the class meetings. Robert Beard held the responsible post of treasurer. It was his solemn duty to see that debts did not exceed profits in class ventures. Mr. William Iveson, our Class Advisor, added a great deal in the fullfillment of class achievements. The Class of 1949 wishes to thank Mr. Iveson for his splendid guid- ance. We started on iur journey to lands unknown on Septem- ber 5, 1945 under the flag of K.H.S. We had many capable leaders to help us through four trying years. The journey ahead of us was to have some rough moments but it proved to have more happy ones. Loking pack we recall the first lap of our journey when we were inexperienced travelers. We can still rememper our first day when we were terrified of what lay ahead, but now, we Wish we could begin all over again. During our first year, we were introduced to many new things, among them Ivanhoe , Algebra, and Latin. At that time we thought them terrifying but we soon learned their true worth. We elected two representatives, Jean Henniges and Robert Castle, to the Teen-Age Center where most of us spent Tuesday and Saturday evenings dancing and playing ping-pong or shuffleboard. We established our importance as a class by having a Sport Dance which was a huge success. That year we had a new experience, semester examinations, from which most of us emerged victorious. Then, as quickly as it had begun a quarter of our journey was completed. We were anxious to resume our journey once again in the fall. We left on :September 5, 1946 and it was wonder- ful to see all the familiar faces and to welcome all the new ones. We were now eligible to join the activities that took place on the journey. Some of us went into the field of sports while others of us became active on the news- paper staff. Many of us joined clubs and in so doing had the opportunity to know better our fellow travelers and leaders. The Stardust Revue was an outstanding success because of the talent that we had to offer along with the other classes. This year we had a Championship football team and we all had a feeling of security by realizing we had helped make them victorious. Before we realized, summer was here and half of our journey was over. The third lap of our journey began on September 4, 1947. We had many new experiences-some of them being the introduction of Mr. Shakesphere to us, the many trying times in the Chemistry Laboratory and the use of com- passes and straight-edges. We participated in the Star- dust Revue and we presented Dear Ruth as the Junior Play. Among the leading actors were Dorothy Carlson, Paul McCool, Britton Kile, Eileen Timmins, and Robert Wrigley. We also elected officers to help lead us on through the journey. They were: President, Joseph Mar- cinkog Vice-Presiden, Rosalie Jablonskig Secretary, An- nette Devlin and Treasurer, Robert Beard. We also held' the successful Junior Prom with music furnished by Lee Vincent.
