Our class officers were president, Leroy Maki: vice president, Nancy Barney: secretary, Jean Sunnarborg, treasurer, Richard Richardson. Thirty-one students returned to their sophomore year at Esko High School with Anita Mat- tinen joining us from Minneapolis, Heading our class this year were president, Iames Juntuneng vice president, Don Pykkoneng secretary, Diane Himangog treasurer, Donald Wigingtong and our faithful advisors Miss Jane Wilsey and Mr. Leslie Knuti. It was during our sophomore year that we sponsored a very successful Sok-Hop for the senior high school, We were all eager to begin the series of events that made up our junior year. The top most being the prom-banquet and the junior class play. We found them both to be as enjoyable as we had anticipated, The Phantom Bells a mystery, directed by Miss Marjorie Steil, was pre- sented in the fall of 1951. Together with our advisors Miss Vivian Georgeson, and Mr. Larry Langen, we put on the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom, a project requiring a lot of work but un- animously agreed worth while. Don Pykkonen held the distinguished office of president of the class. Other officers include Nancy Barney, vice-presidentg Jean Sunnarborg, secretary: and Bette Sunnarborg, treasurer. All this and much more concluded a very enjoyable junior year. September 2, 1952 marked the beginning of the last year of our fast closing high school careers. The long awaited time to be Dignified Seniors had finally arrived. Miss Steil and our principal Mr, Duane Converse were elected advisors of the Senior Class., James Hannerlund was elected president ofour class, Those serving under him were, Dale Luokkala, vice-presidentg Yvonne Hennum, secretaryg and Anita Mattinen, treasurer. They greatly helped in making our senior year a very memorable one. Miss Steil did a wonderful job in directing our play No Boys Allowed a three act comedy, This play terminated our acting days. Our only regret as this annual goes to press is that all our yearly events cannot be included in our book, namely the Prom-Banquet, Excursions, Baccalaureate Services, and the most important of all our high school events - The Commencement Exercises, 15 ,fs
