CLASS OFFICERS CLASS HISTORY As Freshmen, we, the members of the class of '46, did not heed the warning to establish ourselves in the cultural world although we did accomplish a lot socially. We all enjoyed working together and making plans for the future under the able presidency of Phyliss Reed. With this successful start, we were aided during our Sophomore year, which started off with electing Rita Barnes as president. Our first enterprise was a dance which was a social success and a definite boost to our treasury. With complete confidence we advanced into our Junior year under the ad-visorship of Mrs. Sands. After a thrilling campaign, we elected Milford Fargo as our president. We presented several dances which were all successful. Our Junior Prom was the big event of the season. For this we selected “The Campus Cheers’’ from Alfred University for the orchestra. The Junior play, “Miss Smarty,” under the direction of Miss McCarthy proved to be one of the most outstanding conquests of the year. As this is being written we still have the Junior and Senior Banquet to look forward to. This usually gives a head ache to the treasurer and a good time to everyone else. With our eyes wide open and an abundance of confidence we are hopefully anticipating our Senior year. Page 27

CLASS HISTORY As green Freshmen we started our first year in high school by electing Margaret Beaver to head our class. During the year, we held a dance and a party. Our dance was something new, for we invited students of five different schools to come, with the result that it was highly successful. The party was for Freshmen only and proved to be great fun for all. At our first Sophomore class meeting we elected William Bush as president. Our first class dance was postponed from November 10th to January 26th. The music was furnished by “The Happy Valley Boys and provided a fine evening of fun. We also had a Sophomore Party planned for April 13th but it was postponed because of the death of President Roosevelt. A dance is scheduled for May 25th, with the “Wyoming Wood Choppers.” The Sophomores put on an assembly for the grades and high school in which many Sophomores participated in some way or other. This has been a good year for the class of 1947, but we hope to have an even better one next year. We wish to thank Mrs. Pierce, Miss Kennedy, and Miss McCoord for helping us during the year. We especially want to thank Mrs. Ranger for making cur first dance decorations. Page 29
