SENIOR HISTORY It hardly seems possible that we are Seniors. Never will we forget that bright September day four years ago when we, 103 innocent unsuspecting freshmen, marched proudly into Room 9. We really thought we knew everything since we were at last in High School. Several of our boys made the basket- ball and football teams. We chose Denny Nisbet, Larry Stonebraker, Paula Rushworth, and Joe Stover to represent us on the Student Council. While the boys were busy playing on the school teams, the girls were represented by Joyce Tewell who attained a position on the Varsity Cheerleading Squad. The girls weref occupied with G.A,A, and Sunshine. Then, too, we must not omit the band and choir, who could forget those fabulous trips? Before we knew it we were sophomores, busily eying the Freshmen wandering around lost in the halls. Our class of 92 chose John Longcamp, Rod Kinzer, 'Betty Onstot, and Carroll Snyder as our class off- icers. The band and choir both placed first division at the contest and our own Ronnie Nocks was selected to play his drum with the United States Navy Band. Watching the Juniors, we wondered if our Prom would be as successful as theirs. Eighty-seven of us returned for our Junior year. Finally, we were upperclassmen! Denny Great- house, Larry Cash, Joe Votaw, and Douglas Denmure were elected to guide us through this important year. At last, we chose our class rings and began plamiing our prom which was the biggest and best. We chose Rainbow Fantasy as our theme and really had fun planning and decorating. We all had to work in order to earn enough money for the big event. Besides the proceeds from the athletic concessions stands and the coke machine, we held a raffle at the Farmer's Fair and really had a lot of fun selling chances. The dance in the gym lasted from 9:00 to 12:00 and the Parents' committee, headed by Cliff Schuler took over and sponsored a delicious banquet, a movie premier-- The Wings of Eagles , and a river cruise on the Chap- erone Party Boat. When the boat docked at 6:00 we were beginning to get tired. Paula Rushworth and Franklin Lewis reigned over the event. Our basketball team went to the regional and so did we. All in all, this was a truly wonderful year. Coming back as Seniors, we found a world traveler in our midst. It seems that Douglas Denmure took part in a National Boy Scout Jamboree, which was held in England. At the completion of this Jamboree the boys were taken on a guided tour of Europe leaving them with unforgettable memories. We held our last class election and out of 83 members we chose Doug Denmure, Roy Rullman, Emily l-luxsoll, and Ronnie Heilig to represent us for the last time. For the first time in several years an Aurora girl, Linda Schuler, was selected as Fair Queen. Another Senior, Barbara Spaulding, reigned as football Home- coming Queen. The responsibilities of the annual and school paper were now ours with which to cope. Taking the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test, three of our Seniors qualified to take the national test: Rita, Shuter, Gary Shook, and James Scharf. Our senior class pictures were taken for the annual and everyone seemed happy with the results. We will wind up our four wonderful years in A.l-1.8, with Baccalaureate and Commencement. It suddenly dawns upon us that our High School days are almost over, and a future lies ahead of usg whether it will be a success or a failure is ours to determine. N21
