grades Mary Lou and Pete were making, it was not necessary to keep certain parents and teachers on opposite sides of the room. In November, Dear Ruth came to our audi- torium. The hit was produced largely by seniors on both the dramatic and technical staffs. Acting honors were shared by Gerry McKinnon, Jean Moser, Barbara Mazziotti, George Lehr, jean Lintel- mann, Mary Ann Moore, Ken Bowser and Bob Swisshelm. We enjoyed lunch time more than ever in our senior year. The improvements in the cafeteria and the excellent variety of noon-time programs made the fifth period a favorite. After eating at a brightly lighted table, we danced or watched ex- cellent movies. The first girl cheerleaders included seniors Pat Boardman and joan Maxwell and Louise Cronau, as alternate. The girls worked successfully with the senior boys, jack Davis, head cheerleader, and Ron Wzitt to promote school pep. We had lots to cheer in our basketball team, too. Although the players didn't win 'em all, they did an excellent job at all the games, and we are proud of the seniors who participated. By the time we were near the end of our courses, we knew our chemistry valences back- wards and realized the inconvenience of living in France and having to talk that language all the time. We had learned thirty-one trigonometry formulas so that we could tell the difference be- tween a sine and a consine. We knew how much the Vice-President earns each year, and how an office practices. We became acquainted with the night life of Jerry Cruncher, and saw Macbeth in action. We've had a wonderful three years at W.H.S. and we'll all have memories of our high school days. The Month of May, 1950 Wil be especially unforgettable because of our Class Play, our really different Senior Prom, Class Day, Baccalaureate and Commencement. We are all graduating proudly because we know we have proved to everyone by now that the Class of 1950 has upheld the ideals set by former classes.
