The eagerness of our class soon manifested itself, however: and after electing class officers and Miss Dutton for adviser, we started our social season with one of the most enter- taining assemblies of the year. Soon after this program, we spent a joyously carefree day picnicking at Frazier Mountain Parkg and next in line of our social activities was our Freshman Frolic, which everyone hilariously proclaimed a success. The junior High School Graduation, which took place at the end of the year, was the occasion of much ceremony and all of us felt extremely proud as we received our diplomas. For our sophomore year, we chose Miss Sharman to advise us, and throughout the year our class augmented its record for versa- tility. It displayed its spontaneity and the ingenuity of the adviser by presenting a very clever assembly, and in the latter part of the year we Sophomores gave a party for the Freshmen, and their return party marked the close of the social events for the year. Mrs. Molloy was selected as adviser in our junior year, and the seniors welcomed us to the upperclass division with a party. After giving a return party, our class revealed its talent for dramatics by presenting a very exciting play, The Ghost Bird. Later in the year, we decorated the auditorium in red and white and softened the lights for the junior-Senior Prom, which was a very enjoyable affair. This year, we again chose Mrs. Molloy for adviser. And in order to finance the social activities for the year, we presented our play, Sunshine, first. The name of the play speaks for its success, and we were able to enjoy two class parties, our Senior Ball, and a picnic aside from the special privileges and held days granted to Seniors. Then came the most outstanding event of the year-our graduation from high school. We all experienced a feeling of joy and pride mingled with sadness when we received our diplomas-joy and pride because at last we had earned the license to move in a more adult circle, and sadness because this event marked the end of our irre- sponsible high school days. During the four years spent in high school, our class has dis- played a keen interest in athletics and scholarship, and a large majority of our class has taken prominent parts in the different student activities such as drama, music, clubs, and publications.
