, ,gf 1 5 ,- my f .,?,,,k . . . 1 ... t so ,5 5 gg? as ,Qwww has af 53 Douglas Hagan, senior class president, is interested in the school subjects that aid in the development of the mind and character of an individual. The development of the mind, in Douglas's opinion, is promoted by such subjects as mathematics and debate. The influence exerted by them respectively creates an alert and pensive attitude. He feels that R.O.T.C. develops a person into a good citizen of not only the school but also the community. Approximately 400 new sophomores entered the doors of William Chrisman in the fall of 1950. These students, inexperi- enced as they were, soon became a valuable and integral part of Chrisman's life. Their friendliness and helpfulness toward one another expanded the spirit of the school, and showed great promise of future achievement. Gradually they began to develop the traits of true Chrismanites-they became a part of Chrisman's heartbeat. The vice-presidency of the senior class was held by Jerry Wingo. This personable young man feels that making and keeping friends is very important. Exemplary of this fact is .lerry's de- cision to enter newspaper work. He is primarily interested in the business and managing department of a newspaper and hopes to attend the University of Missouri where he will major in journalism. This class, although not larger numerically at the beginning of their junior year, had enlarged as far as their scope of ac- tivities and achievements were concerned. Their attendance at club and honor society meetings steadily increased, for they were beginning to assume the responsibilities and characteristics associated with upper classmen. Throughout this school year their influence was felt. Serving in a dual role this year, Nancy Reich acted as both senior class secretary and student council secretary. Since Nancy's offices concern working with people, she finds that her school subjects were aptly selected. These subjects-English, dramatics, and sociology-each present a different phase of contacting people. During their senior year the qualities which were faintly dis- cernible in their past years at Chrisman became more evident as they endeavored to put their ideas and knowledge into practice. Experience helped their characters and personalities develop more fully. Chrisman's pulse grew stronger because of their contribu- tions to its lifeblood. Mona Myers, senior class treasurer, would like to have a poli- tical career, and fittingly, she finds economics in government very appealing. Mona's main interest in a political career is due to the challenge to win people and the constant vivacity involved. Accordingly, Mona has been a member bf the school debate team and the co-editor of the editorial page of the Envoy. Commencement marks the climax of a high school career for the 53 seniors. Graduation opens the door of opportunity. They will take their places in society better prepared because of the contributions they made to and the benefits they received from Chrisman's heartbeat. Their souls have been enriched by this period of preparation. 18
