. Z f Ill- If sri I rink up, boys! SENIOR CRUISE TO FOSSIL BAY STATE PARK SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September 4, I95I, We started our high school education as fifty-six green freshmen. During the year we held a skating party at Sumas. In our sophomore year we had another skating party and an annual biology hike to a gold mine. Our junior year was a busy one. We gave a play, The Green Ghost, and later on sponsored our junior-senior banquet and prom on different nights at the Everson-Nooksack Grade School cafeteria. Our last year in high school started on September 7, I954. The P.T.A. gave us a party on December IA. We put on a play, You Can't Always Some- times Tell, in April. We went on a cruise to Fossil Bay State Park on May 23 for our senior sneak. Baccalaureate was held May 29. With only 42 remaining of our origi- nal freshman class of 56, we grad- uated on June I, 1955. CONGRATULATIONS. SENIORS I H I. 'A mile pretty YN av Q., AY I II Pals I ll Homeward bound. lbg
