THE SENIOR HISTORY . - iw 'ff mf m As freshmen we started off with a bang! During the first few weeks of school we held our first class meeting and elected Dorothy Burkholder as president, Stanley Zeigler as vice-president and Shirley Frey as secretary- treasurer. Mr. Gottschalk was chosen as sponsor, and a very efficient one he proved to be! Everett Nafziger and Clara Ann Frey served as Student Council members for the year.
