To Miss May Smyth we, the January Class of 1941, express our sincere apprecia- tion and gratitude for her untiring efforts and thoughtful guidance throughout our high school career. One Hunrfrea' and Yiivmly Semen jblf6 Ojrin .famzczfy We were organized one day in 1938 in room 122 when we were 10B's. Our first patroness, Miss Harriette Brown, took charge of our initial election of officers, the result of which was Henry Canfield as presi- dent, Kay Kotzbacher, vice president-secre- taryg and Dorothy Varner, treasurer. The next fall Miss Brown left Alliance, thus leaving us without a patroness. For- tunately, Miss May Smyth consented to guide us through the rest of our high school career. Our first social gathering was held at the Y. M. C. A. as an informal party. In our junior year, Verner Bonfert be- came vice president and Virginia Birch, secretary. One of our first money-making activities as 11B's was a spring dance which we called a Rainbow Dance. Together with the June class of 1941, we sponsored the Fall Festival in 1940, a series of programs feat- uring the Collins' Entertainment Services, to help finance the prom. Then came the main event of that year -our lively Ice Follies prom-the success of which was due to the fine cooperation of all the committees. As the senior year arrived, Octave Grecu became our new vice president. In the fall of that year, Marie Sullivan was given the title of A. H. S. Football Queen of 1940 at the Alliance-Jamestown football game. Irene Szasz also represented our class as a member of her court. Young April, a sequel to Growing Pains, was selected for our senior play. It was presented with great success December 4, 1940 in the high school auditorium. The senior play cast party was held as a banquet at the Country Club. Then came the busy weeks filled with the senior chapel, the prom given for us, the class banquet, and the senior dance. We made our first appearance in caps and gowns at the baccalaureate service Jan- uary 19, 1941. The Reverend Charles W. Stoneburner gave the baccalaureate sermon. One hundred and twenty of us received our high school diplomas from Mr. T. W. Cope, member of the Board of Education, on Friday evening, January 24. Dr. Bernard C. Clausen of Pittsburgh delivered the commencement address. Vir- ginia Birch, class valedictorian, and Henry Canfield, class president, gave their themes and were presented with the American Le- gion Awards.
