CLASS HISTORY Class officers, sophomore through senior years, were Jim Mosack, Gordon Voss, Bob Cherne, Dick Pesonen, Gladys Winquist, Karen Gulbranson, Brenda Weselik, C arol Erickson and Donna Helland. In the fall of '53 we registered for our sophomore year. It was a new and fascinating experience to be a part of the high school. The class elected Gordon Voss, presidentg Bob Cherne, vice-president, Gladys Winquist, secretary, and Carol Erickson, treasurer. A Get Acquainted Party for the freshmen at the West Side was our first activity. This time it was our turn to plan the costumes and entertainment. Rosemary Busch represented our class at the Hallow- e e n Carnival. Lois Johnson and Nola Lashua were our F. F. A.-Sweetheart candidates at the annual F, F. A.-Fac- ulty game. The lucky band memberstraveled to the Mardi Gras celebration in picturesque New Orleans. The sopho- more class party was attended by a motley and colorful crowd. An Hawaiin themewith palm trees and hula-dancers prevailed. During our junior year Awe engaged in many extra- curricular activities. Jim Mosack, Karen Gulbranson, Donna Helland, and Brenda Weselik were our class officers. Our Halloween Carnival candidate was Leslie Hutchins. For the first time we demonstrated our dramatic ability by presenting the class play,BOOKS AND CROOKS. This com- edy was presented on November 11, 1954. During the Christmas vacation the band members of the class had an un- forgettable trip to the Orange Bowl at Miami. Students and faculty were enthusiastic about the opening of the new addition to the school. The commercial, the agricultural, and the music departments were moved into the more luxurious quarters. Lois Johnson was crowned Sweetheart at the F. F. A.-Faculty game,which was hilarious as usual. Carol Peterson represented the junior class also. Early that year the class began earning money for the Prom,which was held in the Duluth Athletic Club. Our theme was Gay Paree with the ballroom decorated as a side-walk cafe with a Bohemian atmosphere. The music was fumished by Roland Everett's orchestra. The summer following our junior year Alice Gagne received the title, Miss Proctor . Gladys Winquist and Jim Mosack were selected by the American Legion to attend Girls' and Boys' State. The big year for the ego to flourish was approaching. In September of 1955 the long anticipated positionwas reached. Lollie Zebottwas our Halloween Carnivalcandi- date. Much of our time was spent in activities to help finance the yearbook,a prodigious task demanding the efforts ofa willing group. Seniors sponsored candy and milk sales, a magazine drive, a movie and other projects. The class elected Gordon Voss, Jim Mosack, Gladys Winquist,and Dick Pesonen as their officers. Pretty Betty Larsen was crowned our Homecoming Queen. In February we began practicing for the class play, TOO MANY DATES. Days before commencement hurried byg practice of the processional march for graduation cameg another scrollof our his- tory is about to unfold. 74
