VVith the play and the junior and Senior Prom how could we miss? The first task we completed was that of electing class officers. Under the direction of Miss Musick, we presented the play Wie Shook the Fam- ily Tree to a grand huge audience. Those who were not in the play carried out the all important jobs of advertising, selling tickets, etc. The team work in our class was proved when basketball season came around, each was given a special assignment that had to be completed the night of a game and saw to it that it was. All this work helped boost our financial condition enormously. Not everything we undertook ran along so smoothly. For example our experience with corn picking. The bad weather was just too bad. After all our trials and joys we came out on top of the world but promised our- selves to make up for those unseen games. Next year maybe!
