i s ply I liii 1 . Qi This is a picture of six wheels. Five of them are Senior class officers, the sixth one is the left rear tire on Philancy Catlin's MG. These chosen few were elected by their classmates to guide them through that last dangerous year and to see that each and every one got a genuine diploma. As these five recall their freshman year, they immediately think of their electing Ioyce Cameron and Sue Markwell to the Student Council. To help support Pep Squad they elected Ioyce Borden, Ianice Bowen, Betty Hawker, Nancy Hill, Ann Markwell. Sue Markwell, Iva McGuire, and Phyllis Riley. During their sophomore year they elected Phyllis Peters and Mary Ann Underwood to Pep Squad. For class officers they chose Richard Kurek as president, Robert Murphy as vice-president, Phyllis Riley as secretary, and lean Shultz as treasurer. Edward Ful- ler, Robert Murphy, and Carol Smith voiced their opinions for their classmates as members of Student Council. Along with the third year came the Iunior Play, Growing Pains with Betty Hawker, Richard Kurek, Buddy Mosby, and Vivian Lawrence. They were well on their way in school activities when Carol Smith, sENnoRs sf' lean Shultz, Raymonette Rucker, Patty Shupp, Rose- mary Giffen, and Bobbie Stamberger became active in Pep Squad. The class officers were Wesley Pryor. president: Robert Murphy, vice-president: lanice Bowen, secretary, and Bob Williams, treasurer. lim Carney, Wesley Pryor, Norman Capp, Robert Mur- phy, Carol Smith, Richard Kurek, and Nancy Hill were representatives in Student Council. And they held their Iunior-Senior Prom in the field house for the first time. At last they reached the climax .... their Senior year.

Memory Burgess and Myrna Smith were elected to Pep Squad: Norman Capps, lim Carney, Gary Dar- nell, Nancy Hill, Robert Murphy, Carol Smith, Mary Ann Underwood, and Ierry Yeager became their last spokesmen in Student Council, with Norman holding down the office of student body president very nicely.
