l Rufh Harshman, Charles Kerr, Bruce Braley, Beafrice Barbour SENIOR CLASS The greaf day for which fhe class of I946 has waifed fwelve long years has finally arrived. ln fhe flurry of lasf minufe congrafulafions and defails, fhe seniors are saying farewell fo fhe school fhaf has for so long been fheir second home. There isn'f much fhaf we can say excepf fhaf even in our grumblings and complainings abouf fhe feachers' being unfair, fhe assignmenfs being foo long, and defen- fions' being unfair, we are sfill going fo hafe fo leave Shawnee. Shall we go baclc fo fhe very firsf day we sfarfed high school in Sepfember of l94O'? We were a bil awed by fhe differences we found in high school and grade school life. Buf 'fhanlcs fo fhe guiding hand of Miss Ruby Mayer, we sfruggled fhrough our sevenfh year of school. ln fhe fall of '4-l we moved from fhe recreafion room fo fhe science and general science rooms. This was fhe firsf fime our class had been separafed and if foolc us a while fo become used fo fhis arrangemenf. Eiqhf A, A fhrough l, was under fhe supervision of Mrs. Wilda McGoughq eighf B, J fhrough Z, was under Miss Lois Weaver. ln our freshman year we were again divided info fwo secfions, fhe firsf, under Miss Margaref Rimer, and fhe sec- ond, under Miss Mary l-lilfner, We moved up fo fhe fop floor of fhe school fo rooms 2 and 3. Many new acfivifies were opened fo us, and we were happy fo fake advanfage of fhem. For our firsf carnival queen represenfafive, we chose Carolyn Baber. Our freshman officers were Charles Kerr, presidenf: Bruce Goodenough, vice-presidenfg and Doris Lee, secrefary-freasurer. ln our sophomore year, secfion A, now A fhrough J, moved fo fhe Junior High Sfudy Hall, and secfion B, K fhrough Z, moved fo Room I. This year we gained a lof of new sfudenfs from Perry. Soon, however, fhe newness of fheir coming wore off and we were one big happy family. This year we chose bruneffe Rufh Miller for our represenfa- five as carnival queen. For our nexf officers we elecfed Don Sefflemire as presidenf, Charles Marshall as vice presidenf, and Jean Ann Morrison as secrefary-freasurer. Miss Rimer and Miss Hilfner were sfill our advisors. We were excifed when we refurned fo school in Sepfem- ber of I944, for we were on fhe lasf half of our high school careers. This fime we were all fogefher in fhe Junior High Sfudy Hall wifh Miss l-lilfner and Mr. Hamer Mifchell as advisors. For our fhird carnival queen represenfafive we chose blonde, blue-eyed Beafrice Barbour. Again Charles Kerr was our presidenfg Don Sefflemire fook over fhe vice- presidency lwasn'f he a swell foasfmasfer af fhe prom, gang?l: Beffy Nye was secrefary and Beafrice Barbour, freasurer. Our iunior year was really excifing. The annual Junior Class Play and class rings held our complefe affen- fion fhe firsf half of fhe year, while fhe prom engaged all our inferesfs fhe laffer parf. By fhe end of l945, four of our clasmafes had leff us fo serve fheir counfry. Sepfember, l94o, saw us very near fhe end of our goal for a high school diploma. lf was hard fo believe fhaf we were seniors and fhaf we had only nine more monfhs of school ahead of us. For fhe mosf imporfanf officers we had fo elecf in our high school careers we chose, affer much debale, Bruce Braley for presidenfg Charles Kerr for vice-presidenfg Bea- frice Babour for secrefary, and Rufh Harshman for freasurer. Loueffa Schlegel was our lasf carnival queen represenfafive.. Since we were seniors, we had fhe privilege of having fhe Senior High Sfudy Hall as our home room, of siffing in fhe firsf five rows in fhe audiforium, of leaving fhe audi- forium firsf, and of being cock-of-fhe-wallc during our lasf year af Shawnee, Mrs. Goldie Walfz and Mr. Hamer Mifchell were our advisors in fhis lasf and busiesf year. Vxfallcing sedafely down fhe aisle of our Alma Mafer for fhe lasf fime as sfudenfs of Shawnee High School on May lb, I946, we look baclc over our years in school. We can remember our firsf year of high school and fhe ferrible blow we received in December of l94l when Pearl Harbor was bombed. Each one of us has learned fhrough fhe biffer experience fhis war has broughf how imporfanf if is fo main- fain peace in fhe fufure. Because we have finished our high school educafion, be- cause we've sfudied in parf fhe hisfory and governmenf of our counfry, because we've had rules and regulafions fo obey, we will be beffer fiffed fo become cifizens of fhe Unifed Sfafes and fo falce our own responsibilify in pre- serving peace and freedom in fhe world. Perhaps one of our number will be insfrumenfal in bringing abouf fhe world solidarify fhaf has been fallced of for so long. Anofher may bring relief from some dread disease, and s+iII anofher may help perfecf our governmenf. We sincerely hope fhaf from all fhe classes of l946, fhere will come fhese and ofher greaf hurnanifarians. Wifh fhe belief fhaf fhe world and fufure belong fo youfh, we go forfh fhis nighf in May, l94-6, fo fry fo do our bif in preserving peace and prosperify nof only for our- selves and our posferify buf for all fhe world for evermore.
