In the fall of l9Sh, Arcola High was blessed with the ar- rival of 52 green freshmen. There never was a greener bunch, but we entered with a wish for growth and learning. As our class officers, we chose Lyle Johns Pres., Norman Strader Vice-Pres., and Sharon Bennett Sec-Treas. Ed Harshbarger and Georgia Herrington were our representatives to the Student Council. We chose pink and black as our class colors and the pink rose as the class flower. when Homecoming time rolled around, we were all enthusiastic about our first dance. Con- nie Johns was elected the Queen's attendentg Doug Mullikin was her escort. Our float, HThey Can't Stand the Pressurenwon second prize. Our first semester exam was something we'll ne- ver forget. As the year moved on, we became more familiar with high school life. We looked forward to the time when we would become Silly Sophomores. Forty-seven of us managed to walk through the doors of A. H.S. as sophomores. Our class officers were Lyle Johns Pres., Norman Strader Vice-Pres., Dorothy Wood Sec., and Jim Clark Treas. Our float again won second prize with the theme of -- nCanoe Beatum, Oar Not.n Shirley McNary was our attendent 5 Lyle Johns was her escort. we spent the year thinking up mon- ey making projects for future years. A short period of time seperated us from the status of upperclassmen. Our number had diminished to 143 'when the Junior Class re- turned to the Usalt minesn to start our reign as upperclass- men. Our class officers for that year were Pat Monahan Pres., Jim Clark Vice-Pres., Chlora Chapman Sec., and Doug Mullikin Treas. To mark us as upperclassmen, we chose a class ring which we thought was NOut of this world! The price tag proved this assumption to be true. Our Honwcoming attendent Was G90- rgia Herrington and Ed Harshbarger was her escort. Our float, WWe'll Root 'Em Upn failed to win anything. Our Nnest eggu for our Senior Trip, next year, was enlarged by income from our magazine sales, concessions from the Okay Tourney and our class play UNo Boys Allowed? which won us recognition as superb actors and actresses when under tear gas pressure, In the fall of '57, 3h of us entered A.H.S. with much en- thusiasm. Our last year, we intended to make it a memorable one. We chose for class officers Jim Clark Pres., Georgia Her gdmgton Vice-Pres., Bill Beyers Sec., and Linda Connor Treas. We immediately started plans for our Senior Trip. we decided to go to New York City. Our mailbox campaign was one of our projects for raising money to make the trip possible. Georgia Herrington was elected Queen for the 1957 Homecoming Festivities. Janice Clark was chosen as her attendent. Their escorts were the football co-captains,Jim Clark and Ed Harsh- barger. Our float, WWe're in Shape, Are You?H failed to place in the money. Our representative, Chlora Chapman, was crowned Queen of the Okaw Valley. Her escort was Ed Harshbarger, bas- ketball captain. Our class play NLove is Too Much Troubleuwas a great success. The Prom was our last big fling of our high school career. We shall always remember it for the fun we had. By graduation time,our class had shrunk to 32 members. We don't know what the future holds for us, but no matter what we do, we can always look back to the wonderful, dearing experiences we received at A.H.S.
