Our adviser this year was Mrs. Gressman, our class president, Kathryn Kauk, our vice president, Loren Bagley, and our secretary and treasurer, Phyllis Dunphy. At the end of the first six weeks we gained Darlyne Miller from Monroe, and at the end of the first semester we lost Donald Stewart to Brodhead High. We put on a Christmas party which was easily deemed the best party of the year. Our sophomore year we started with thirteen students, but we lost Dolores Lenz during the first six weeks. Our class then had twelve members with Mrs. Gressman and Mr. Elmer as co-advisers. Loren Bagley was president; Junior Klossner, vice president; Dorothy Pfeuti, secretary, and Phyllis Dunphy, treasurer. In the forensics contest, held in March at Albany, were the following sophomores: Darlyne Miller, Kathryn Kauk, Dorothy Pfeuti, and Ramona Olin. This year we were hosts at an enjoyable valentine party. Our junior year gave us no new class members until March 1, when Alice Marie Edwards joined us from Dakota, Illinois. On April 22 we put on the Junior prom with Rob Edgar furnishing the music. Our theme was Bluebird of Happiness . Loren Bagley and Kathryn Kauk as prom king and queen led the grand march. All agree it was one of the best proms ever held. On April 1 we put on a very successful class play, Star Crazy . Our junior class officers were Fred Haramerly, president; Kathryn Kauk, vice president; Dorothy Pfeuti, secretary; and Loren Bagley, treasurer. Mr. Elmer was our class adviser.
