THE CLASS HISTORY We dedicate this class history to all with a sense of humor. Did you get tired of reading dry histories? Well, so did we. so here goes! We came, we saw. we conquered! On September 5. 1946. the Aurora High School was honored with the enrollment of one hundred ten of the most fun-loving characters that ever darkened its portals. Were we confused? Were we over-awed? No, with the exception of a few unfortunate ones who were unlucky enough to get caught in the wrong class. At our first class meeting we made our first big mistake. Our class officers were as follows: President. Bob Wright; Vice President, Tom Kaster; Secretary, Joan Rushworth; and Treasurer, Norman Kinnett. Oh, well, it could have been worse. We gave two successful dances which started us on our savings for the prom. The teachers heaved a sigh of relief when we returned in the fall as Sohpomores— one less year to worry about! We elected these officers: President, again Bob Wright; (will we never learn??) Vice President, Leon Kelly; Secretary, jean Matson, and Treasurer, Majel Curtis. The year was highlighted for us by our Christmas play Bang Goes Christmas”. So the acting was crumby, anyway, we liked it. Two more dances added to our small treasury. Our Junior year brought many new, exciting things. We discovered that we were under a new warden—Eugene F. Gabbard. The officers we elected were: President, Carroll Love; Vice President, Alan Newell; Secretary, June Kruse; and Treasurer, Herschey Kent. We paid for our class rings—will anybody lend me a dime? The Prom came and went, as all good things do. After weeks of wrestling with the crepe paper, Betty Robinson was crowned queen, and “Blue Moon” waned. Seventy-seven of us came back in the fall to rule the roost. This time we selected the following officers: President. Alan Newell; Vice President, Lester Miles; Secretary, Herschey Kent; and Treasurer, Nadine Acra. After a brief struggle with announcements, we proceeded on to Senior photos and caps and gowns, without half the trouble the teachers expected. Although we have written this half in fun; nevertheless, we will always remember our days at A. H. S., and hope to be remembered. Joan Rushworth Anne Olcott Les Miles 13
