Kenneth Thompson Vice-Pre-sident ....... ....................,, V eva North Secretary ............ ....... K atherine Ander-son Representative ....... ............... J im Siegwarth Sgt. of Arms ................................,. Sidney Davis The people of Adna really had a mad night of entertainment when we presented our play, The Nit Wits , on November 9th. Wonder why some people said the play was very appropriate? We also entertained the school the Friday before Christmas with a program. Members of our class took a leading role in putting on the Band Uni- form Carnival. The class certainly was glad to see the band get uniforms. A Spring baseball dance was sponsored by the class. Everyone had a wonderful time. Then on May 9th, We also sponsored the annual Alumni Dance. This was a great success. On April 18th, members of our class became teachers in the high school for one day. We thought that We did an excellent job. May 16th was Senior trip day. Went to Seattle for educational pur- poses. Had a wonderful time, and learned a few things along with our fun. Sunday evening, May 25th, our class had its baccalaureate service. Rev. Hayes delivered the sermon. May 28th was graduation night. The big day finally arrived. This was the culmination of four years of hard Work. It was both a sad and joyous occasion for us. We can truthfully say we were both glad and sorry to leave Adna High School.

Perhaps we were a little more scared than the average Freshman class, but we soon got over that. T At our first class meeting, we elected our class officers. This was an important event for us, thus we chose them wisely. Elsie Richter was chosen President, with Wesley Curtis as Vice-President. Jim Siegwarth was elected Secretary-Treasurer, Vernon Mitchell was elected Sgt. of Arms, and Harvey Cox was elected to act as Class Representative. Mr. Jones was our class advisor. Naturally we were Worried about initiation, but on the first of October, it came off without serious mishap. Some of us suffered indigni- ties, but we lived through the event. After the initiation we immediately began planning for the Frosh Re- turn, and on the 5th of November, we showed the Sophomores that we really held no grudges because of the ill treatmeent we receeived at their hands during Frosh Initiation. All in all, our Freshman year was a good one. It showed us how much we had to learn and gave us the confidence with which to face the future. SOPHOMORE YEAR At the beginning of our Sophomore year, the class consisted of twenty-three members. Later in the year our number increased to twenty- five. Harvey Cox was elected President, Vernon Mitchell, Vice-Presidentg Christle DeBow, Secretary-Treasurer, Leslie Mohoric, Representativeg Katherine Anderson, Sgt. of Armsg and Lou Ann Johnson, Reporter. Mr. Nelson was our class advisor. October llth, we initiated the Freshmen. We believe we did a fairly good job. The class of 53 can bear us out on this statement. Three of our girls won school-wide acclaim during our Sophomore year. Claudell Rich and Ginger Rider were chosen as drill team major- ettes and Beverly Maddox was chosen as one of the school yell leaders. The majority of the boys made a letter in at least one sport and many of the girls participated in the drill team and girls' athletics. JUNIOR YEAR Finally we were upper-classmen. We began our eleventh year of school by sponsoring the annual Junior Prom. This event was one of the high- lights of the 1950-51 school year. The class also presented No Foolin ', a three-act comedy. We didn't realize how much talent we actually had. The class decorated the auditorium for Baccalaureate and commence- ment. , fContinued on Next Pagej
