emon class hlstony We take you back, into the dim past. We take you to the fateful month of September, 1949 when, after eight long and tedious years, we took our first step to freedom. We entered the freshman class of Roosevelt High School. On September 23 at 9:45 a.m., we elected our leaders. They were Jil Cicotte, presidentg Winston Suiter, vice-president, Betty Gordon, secretary, and Neal Saunders, treasurer. Our class sponsors were Mrs. Irene Delaney and Mr. Robert Beckman. That year we chose to save our money for future revolution As our plans for freedom swiftly progressed, we entered into our second step which was the soph- omore class. In September, 1950 we again elected our leaders for the ensuing year. They were Betty Gordon, president, Dale Cartier, vice-president, Beverly Martin, secretary, and Thelma Fritz, treasurer. In order to conceal our subversive activities, the class went on a hay ride, and a sleigh ride. While these happy events -were taking place, our underground agents advanced toward the third step of our dastardly deed. The sponsors, Mr. Hauk, ard Mr. Hofrichter, were busy helping us for the future. The class chose to attend Walled Lake for their final activity of the year. Thus ended step number two. The following year found us still plotting. We elected Ed Nelson as president, Beverly Martin as vice-president, Margaret White as secretary, and Connie Blainey as treasurer. The sponsors were Mrs. Johnston and Mr. Greenwood. During this year we held the annual Home-Coming Dance. We decided, as we had previously, to save our funds for the fourth and final step. As seniors, we worked swiftly toward our goal. Our sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Hauk and Mr. Cargo, aided us in founding our part cell. In the course of the functions of the students party, we established many traditions of the school which we hope will be handed down to other senior classes. The first of our traditions was the introducing of election campaigns. During our campaign we elected Comrade Larry Boes as premier, Lorraine Ramirez as Vice-Premier, Beverly Martin as Commissor of the Secretariat, Betty jane Reamer as Commissor of the Treasury, and Neal Saunders and Betty Vittone as Genrelissimos of Entertainment fby the leadership of these glorious heroes, we accomplished our endj. Our other traditions which we established were the Horne-Coming Dance and the Senior-Faculty Basket- ball Game in which, by political diplomacy we allowed the teachers to defeat us. These activities were merely more ruses to conceal our real purposes. In order to show our complete accord with the faculty, we showed great industry in preparing for our Senior Play. Through all these trials and tribulations we remained stalwart and upright in our cause. We made our final plans with our espionage agents on the night of the Senior-Junior Prom. We had already gathered our arsenal of weapons while on the Senior trip at Gaylord, Michigan. On the night of june 18, we at last overthrew the faculty and completed the glorious revolution. On that night, we graduated. Freedom was achieved. 15
