Stehicr ClaAA Activities T. R. Brisbine, class Valedictorian, leads the Senior Activity page as he is shown putting the finishing touches on one of his mechanical drawing assignments. Eighteen seniors enrolled in the Book- keeping class conducted by Mr. W. J. Foer- ster. Between the regular bookkeeping as- signments and two practice sets, the class was kept busy during the entire year. The English IV group conducted by Mrs. Marie Moran was caught in the act of watching an educa- tional film during its class period one day. The films were scheduled throughout the year to provide addi- tional information necessary for certain phases of learning. Eight girls of the senior class started their short- hand careers the second semester under the direc- tion of Mr. John Bornong. Back Row - Madaline El- enz, Marilynn Gutzmer, Mary Jane Ferguson and Audrey Brown. Front Row - Joan Brewster, Phyl- lis Baseman, Barbara Hendrick and Bonnie Johnson. 18 The votes cast by the high school students in the annual popularity poll were counted and recorded by Tom Brisbine, Terry Bed- dow, Maurice Jensen, Madaline Elenz, Phy- llis Baseman, Marion Hegg, Shirley Flan- ders and Barbara Hendrick.

£ehicr J Vtiit To £tate Capitol Seniors gathered around the circu- lar bench in the Capitol to relax for a minute and make plans for their next tour which was the Highway Depart- ment Building. Governor Joe Foss took time out of his busy schedule to spend about forty-five minutes with the W. H. S. students. Phyllis Baseman sat in Joe's chair as he explained his proposed budget to her and T. R. Brisbine. A very informal at- mosphere prevailed around the Governor's office -----most of his official visitors called him Joe. The machine that received such avid attention from Mary Jane Ferguson and several other seniors was one used to test highway bridges. During this demonstration test 1 54, 000 pounds of pressure was plac- ed on the cement slab before it began to crack. Mr. Loren Rimer, a former Woon- socket resident and WHS graduate, conducted the seniors on their tour of the Capitol and Highway Building. Loren works for the Highway De- partment.
