They Won Their Race In 1954, four hundred spirited Freshman colts lined up at the starting gate to begin the 1958 running of the Archer Derby. At the sound of the starting gun, we were off, finding a successful ullreshman Frolic at the first turn. Rounding the first turn into the Sophomore year, we selected our first crew of jockeys and trainers. john Bennhoff, president, Phil Shriner, vice-president, Nancy Burton, secretary-treasurer, and Susie Craig, Dick Miller, and Dan Howe, social council, guided the yearlings through the busy year, which included the memorable Sophomore Party Spring Daze. Our trainers that year were Miss Marcia Hickman and Mr. Marion Feasel. Miss Shirley Maloney and Mr. William Applegate were selected as Junior trainers the next year to guide us through the backstretch and into the far turn. john Bennhoff, president, Jolly Clarkson, vice-president, Susie Craig, secretary-treasurer, and Phil Shriner, Dick Miller, and Ted Despos, social council, were always ready to lend assistance as the three-year-olds worked hard to prepare for Kelly Karousel, the Junior Banquet held in November. We raced through the year toward the homestretch of our derby, ending our junior class ac- tivities with the never-to-be-forgotten junior Prom, Oriental Moon, and the wonderful parties after the dance. Our turn into the homestretch marked the beginning of the Senior year. Capable jockeys were chosen to lead the class through the many Senior activities. John Benn- hoH was again elected president. Mickey Parrott was 20 chosen vice-president, Donna Ornas, secretary-treasurer, and jolly Clarkson, Susie Craig, Carl Stavreti, and Phil Shriner, social council. Our Senior trainers were Miss Mary Graham and Mr. H. McClure. The busy round of Senior activities began as we en- tertained our parents and teachers at the annual Senior Reception. Soon the Christmas holidays arrived with the gay Alumni Dance, which brought news of college from the classes of previous years. Tag Day brought an end to restless hope and anticipation when forty- seven Seniors were tagged for National Honor Society. On February 7, our Senior Banquet, Treasured For- ever,'f was held at St. john's Evangelical and Reformed Church. It was highlighted by a prophecy, prepared and read by Susie Craig and Bill Boggess. Then Time Out for Ginger was selected as the Senior Play, and many seniors helped Mr. jack Morey, the director, to make the play a success. At last spring came, and we saw the finish line loom- ing before us. The beautiful Ivy Day ceremony fol- lowed the parade, which was led by the Queen and her court. Recognition Day brought honors to those who had earned them. At the Baccalaureate service, we spent an hour in worship together. Our Senior Prom put us in a dreamy mood as we enjoyed our last social event at South Side. On Wednesday, june 4, we members of the class of l958 crossed the finish line to find ourselves facing a lifetime of races to run and win. Confident, we knew that the Archer Derby had well prepared us for the race of life.
