Senior Class History Four years filled with education, leadership, and good times constitute the history of the class of ”52 . When the history begins, the class is composed of mere chil- dren in statue and inactions. Four years later they have grown physically and mentally until they are now young men and young women ready to take their place in life. On September 10, 1948, fifty seven freshmen per- formed atan initiation assembly and in the evening they were guestsof honorata mixer where they were formally sworn in as members of the B.C.H.S. Carolyn McFadden was awarded a prize for the most beautiful costume, Jim Richardson for the most humorous; Bill Schmitt and Er- nest Brothers for theugliestand Marjorie Griffith for the most original. In the first class meeting Warren Murray was elected president; Jim Richardson, vice president; Elaine Ander- sen, secretary-treasurer, Elizabeth McCollum, yell lead- er; Gene Pilon, student council representive; Bill Orr and Jim Richardson, Beaver Lodge Committee. Mrs. Helen Andrus and Mr. Ben Tyvand were the class sponsors. From the very beginning the class was very active in all school activities. The first dance put on by the class had a valentine theme. The Beaver Lodge was gay- ly decorated in red and white and the members of the class entertained with a floor show. Under curriculm they topped the semester and third quarter honor rolls. For extra-curriculum they had a basket ball team of their own. Nancyann Peterson was chosen Harvest Ball Queen candidate. Braver and more dignified, the class commenced its second year in high school. Eight new members had joined the ranks but because of various reasons twelve of the old ones were iost leaving a total of fifty three members. As sophomores they initiated the freshman by the unique way of having them dress as story book characters. They also honored the new freshmen at a mixer and had them sworn into the school as full fledg- ed members. Jim Richardson became sophomore class president, Tom Orr, vice president; Phyllis Harrison, secretary; Gene Pilon, treasurer; Buzz Davis, yell leader; Berna dine Rebich and Bill Schmitt, student council, and Schtty Stubban and Buster Brown, Beaver Lodge Com- mittee members. Many honors were bestowed on members of the class during the second year. Bernadine Rebich was awarded the geometry cup, Carolyn McFadden and Elizabeth Mc- Collum were accepted as members of the National Honor Society, Louise Piazzola was chosen as a cheer- leader, and Elaine Andersen was selected Harvest Ball Queen candidate. At the student body election held in the spring, four of the six student association officers for the next year came from this class. Carolyn McFadden was elected Secretary; Nancyann Petersen, business manager; Jim Richardson, treasurer; and Louise Piazzola, yell queen. All ready to fill the new positions they held and eager to start on the activities awaiting them, the class entered school again as juniors, full of vitality and enthusiasm. Nancyann Peterson became class president; Jim Rich- ardson, vice president; Louise Piazzola, secretary; Bare Schulz, treasurer; Jim Richardson, Scotty Stubban, Ray Davis, Student Council members; Bill Allen, yell leader; and Noreen Hubbard and Jim Richardson representives of the Beaver Lodge. Mr. Louis Rocheleau became a new class sponsor. Highlights of the year were a class play and the Jun- ior Prom. Our Miss Brooks , a comedy portraying the trials in the life of an English teacher, was performed. It was under the direction of Mr. Clarence Gump. Cin- erella , theme of the prom, was carried out successfully and originally. During the year Louise Piazzola was chosen Harvers Ball Queen candidate; Eve Eliel was selected cheer- leader; Noreen Hubbard was elected President of the Future Homemakers of America; Mary Ellen Conover and Carolyn McFadden were chosen as representatives to Girls State;and John Helming, Ray Davis, Gary Carson, Tom Orr, and Barclay Schulz were selected to go to Boys' State. Those initiated into National Honor Society were Bernadine Rebich, Mary Ellen Conover, and Eve Eliel. The outstanding journalists that became members of Quill and Scroll were Eve Eliel, Mary Ellen Conover, Noreen Hubbard, Shirley Ryan, and Elizabeth McCol- lum. Into the ranks of National Thespians went Ray Davis, Nancyann Petersen, Gary Carson, Eve Eliel, John Helming, Bernadine Rebich, and Carolyn McFadden, members for the newly formed Science Club, Chemo- crats , were Carolyn McFadden, Noreen Hubbard, Nancyann Petersen, Larry Lloyd, Elizabeth McCollum, and Eve Eliel. Those chosen for Color Guard were Car- olyn McFadden, Eve Eliel, Bernadine Rebich, Barclay Schulz, and Nancyann Petersen. High and mighty seniors at last! Very proud of their experiences as scholars and eager to fulfill their new duties, fifty seven seniors began their final step to grad- uation. Officers elected for the last year were: Louise Piazzola, president; Walt Paddock, vice president; Marilyn Mockel, yell leader; Elaine Andersen, Gary Carson, Noreen Hubbard and John Helming student coun- cil representatives, and Bernadine Rebich, Artell Lovell, and Gary Williams, Beaver Lodge Committee member. Bill Allen was secretary. Bill Schmitt was installed Student Body President; Gene Pilon, vice president; Carolyn McFadden, secre- tary; Elaine Ahdersen, treasurer; Gary Carson, Business Manager, and Louise Piazzola, yell queen. Mary Ellen Conover and Eve Eliel took over the tremendous duties of the Beaver, as co-editors. Nancyann Petersen was elected head of G.A.A., Mary Ellen Conover was chosen president of the Future Homemakers of America and Ray Davis was elected president of the Key Club. Bill Allen become president of the B Club, Elizabeth McCollum, president of the National Honor Society; Nancyann Petersen, president of the ski club and Carolyn McFad- den, president of Chemocrats. In remembrance of the freshmen days, the class again sponsored a valentine dance, decorating the Beaver Lodge similar to the previous one. Gramercy Ghost was picked for the senior class play. It had a laughable plot centered around a girl who inherited the ghost of a Revolutionary war hero. The big project for the year was the editing of the 1952 annual with Elizabeth McCollum heading the staff. Graduates of 1952 had four years of eventful history that would be hard to equal. Much of their success be- longs to their class sponsors, Mrs. Andrus and Mr. Ty- vand, who were with them during their entire stay, and to Mr. Rocheleau for sponsoring them when juniors, and Mrs. Avery when they were seniors. Also a great deal of recognition should go to all the teachers who have helped them to gain knowledge and experience. 23
