. V i Senior History Chapter One fFreshmenj The 1950-51 school yea.r found thirty students enrolled as green Fresh- men the class of 54 . At the first class meeting, class officers were elected with Gordon Young as president. Our class officially became a part of Adna High School after the initiation which was ably handled by the sophomores on September 29. A few aches and pains followed, but we a.ll agree it was one of the most enjoy- able events of our high school career. Just to prove there were no ill feel- ings held over from initiation, we gave the Sophs a return party on April 5. The entire class worked hard decorating the gym, preparing food, and cleaning up to make this dance a success. And a success it was too, with the combined cooperation of the class and adviser, Mr. Weber. A class picnic was held at Deep Lake the last day of school. Chapter Two fSophomoresJ The class of 1954 was happy to return to school September 4, 1951, as Sophomores. The first item of business that year was to elect class officers and Virgil Rayton was chosen class president. On September 21, we initiated the freshmen in grand style. However, they thoroughly enjoyed the ordeal, refreshments and dance, as Well as the devilment we dealt them. During the year, several parties were held at va.rious homes. Some of these get-togethers were Halloween, Christmas, surprise birthday and theatre parties. Mr. Weber again served as our class adviser and attended the class picnic at Puget Sound which was held on the last day of school. Chapter Three Uuniorsj Upperclassmen at last! Yes, we are now next to the top with a full calendar of events for our eleventh year. Our first activity of the year was the sponsorship of the Junior Prom. It was held on October 17, with decorations and refreshments following the theme Harvest Ball . Class officers were elected a-s usual at the first of the year and Bob Fay was voted in as president while Mr. Morris served as our adviser. Our long-awaited class rings arrived on November 10, and We felt very important as we showed them around. We really exploited our talent in the presentation of the annual Junior Pla.y, March 6, 1953, entitled Beanes for Breakfast . This hilarious comedy set the audience rolling in the aisles. There were rumors that this production was the best seen at Adna in many years. Mr. Morris proved himseH a very capable director. The annual class picnic was held at Offut Lake with a good time had by all. 5 Chapter Four CSeniorsD August 31, 1953, found the class of 54 headed down the home stretch, mighty Seniors of AHS. ' The activities of Seniors are many and important, as we soon found out. The Senior boys led the sports activities of AHS, many being indis- pensible members of the athletic teams. Wendell DeBoer was elected president of our class at the first class meeting and Bob Fay served capably as Student Body President. November 13, was the date of the Senior Play production You're Only Young Once , which was acclaimed tops in entertainment by many fans. On April 30, accompanied by Mr. Robinson, we journeyed to Seattle for the annual Senior Trip. This trip proved to be very educational and enjoyable for the entire class. On May 14, we sponsored the Alumni Dance, which proved to be another attribute to the class of 54 . The final events for our class were Baccalaureate, held May 23, and Commencement, on May 27. After this date, the Class of 54 became past history at Adna high school. A
