eniorri . . . The officers we chose to lead us through our final year proved to be very capable. Sitting in the front row are Miss Mary Graham, ad- viser, Ruble, social council, Dick Bragg, vice-president, Louie Mangels, president, and Dick Van Horn, social council, and in the back row are Gary Fryback, social council, Mr. jake McClure, ad- viser, and John Sweet, secretary- treasurer. QQISMA5 of .gjoufft agivleii Zzcifcbng wan Graduation is upon us. Although some deeply regret leaving, we can all truthfully admit that it seems like such a short time ago that we entered the halls of South Side as freshmen and experienced so many new things. As sophomores we elected our first class officers and chose Johnny Sweet. Gary Fryhack, Louie Mangels, Max Seaman, Jackie Hurt. and Pat Dob'on to guide us. The advisers were Mr. Jack Bobay and Miss Leona Zweig. Soon it came time for our first claus event, the Sophomore Party, which we called A Little Bird Told Me. All of us will recall the fun we had planning for it, decorating, and at- tending it. Before we could realize, our third year was at handg we were appropriately tagged Hjaunty juniorsf' After choosing our male council, Gary Fryback, johnny Sweet, Max Sea- man, Louie Mangels, Dick Van Horn, Dick Bragg, and Allan Wuebbenhorst, came the junior Banquet, which was suitably entitled Passing Parade. Then came May when ever so many of us collaborated to make May Magic, our prom, a lasting success. Mr. Bobay and Miss Matha Thompson were our able advisers that year. At last we were seniors who were about to begin our final year, which would be crammed with enduring memo- I 2 ries. First of all came the election of officers. Then in turn selected Miss Marv Graham and Mr. Jake McClure to give adult counsel. In December we greeted our parents, teachers, and friends at the Senior Reception, which was followed in several weeks by a very successful Alumni Dance. So Dear To Our Hearts, the Senior Banquet, was held on February 14. We will always remember the im- pressive speeches, class toast, food, and the decorations which depicted Valentine's Day and the things that were so dear to our hearts. Next came the Senior Play in April with acting superb. The beginning of the end came all too soon when we elected our Ivy Queen and court, then attended the im- pressive ceremony. Recognition Day followed, at which we were honored for our accomplishments. We all gathered to receive a last word of advice at Baccalaureate services. Our final social event was the beautifully decorated Senior Dance of which fond recollections will permanently be had. As we were handed our diplomas and descended the steps at Commencement, June 4, each of us felt that now he or she was ready to embark on a career to his own choosing with the satisfaction that South Side had built her Class of 1952 mentally, physically, and socially.
