csparting Is Such Sweet Sorrow? LL SENIORS enjoyed certain distinctions this year - some privileges, , 0 t h e r s responsibilities. Envied by the rest of the school, they have enjoyed the front seats in the auditorium. Senior girls have had the honor of ushering at school produc- tions, and some of the boys and girls have served as guides on Parents' Night. One of the lighter moments in the senior year has always been Baby Day, when dignified seniors reverted to their kindergarten days, dressing and playing as they imagined chil- dren would. Such things as having senior pictures taken, voting in the Popularity Contest, choosing the class gift, and attend- ing class meeting are some of the tasks peculiar to members of the senior class. The climax of the year came in June at the Class Day assembly, the Honor Day assem- bly, and especially at graduation. ,4 4' 1 Seniors held the leading roles in Romeo and Juliet and took major parts in the 'cWalnuts of '49 . In varsity athletics sen- ior boys were often the stars and also the hard-working, less glorified players. In many instances the officers of the school's numerous clubs have been seniors who have gained experience through three or four years of membership. The editors-in- chief and many holders of other editorial positions of the school publications, the Chatterbox, the Remembrancer, the Gleam, the Sportscaster, and the Blue Book, have been members of the senior class. Seniors have furnished leadership this year in the Student Council, where decisions concerning the welfare of the whole stu- dent body are made. Likewise, senior boys have served on the Student Court, and sen- ior girls on Senior Council have been the leaders in girls' activities. Seniors com- posed the major part of the Big Brothers and Big Sisters, whose task it is to look after the new seventh graders, helping them to adjust properly to a new environ- ment. This task was more difficult than usual this year because of the extremely large seventh grade class. Many of the seniors have been in a breath- less whirl of activities this year, but never- theless they have profited from their classes. In some of these they have ex- plored new fields such as chemistry or eco- nomics, in others they have delved deeper into subjects the study of which began in earlier years. Many members of the class have taken advantage of the opportunities for developing their talents in such fields as special art, special speech, band, orchestra, and the A Cappella Choir. This year was the one they have been look- ing toward for five years. Soon they will be moving ahead toward greater goals, but they will always remember their first experience in taking responsibility and be- ing leaders, those of their senior year at Walnut Hills. 23

To assist Bob Wuerfel in his job and fill in whenever necessary, Bob Stargel was chosen as vice president. In addition to his class office, Bob was also a member of the football team, 22 track team, Hi-Y, Chemistry Club, Big Brothers, and Latin Club. Margaret Duffy's job as secretary consisted of taking minutes of the class meetings and per- forming all other secretarial tasks which arose during her term. Sally Ostrom, as treasurer, collected senior dues and any other money that happened to find its way into the class treasury. In addition to col- lecting and depositing the money, Sally kept accurate accounts.
