Our class officers were: President, Elizabeth Daly; Vice President, Mike O'Brien; Sec- retary, Mary MacDonald and Treasurer, Darlene DeMars. She left in the beginning of the year so Luella Kruschke took over. Our advisors were Miss Wilmot and Mr. O'Reagan. For Homecoming attendant we elected Ethel Bigaouette. In the fall we were initiated by the juniors. When our Sophomore year rolled around we were minus quite a few classmates- Arlene Schmidt, Melvin Maltz, Robert Trost, Merlin Bartels, and Clarence Tellers. Mary Jane Bowser had moved to Le Sueur. But we also had two new members added, Sylvia Larson and Don Zellman. That year we elected as officers: President, Tom Bailey; Vice Presi- dent, Margaret Albrecht; Secretary, Wayne Hagermann; Treasure, Joey Keating. Our advisors were Miss Fazer and Miss Romness. Elizabeth Daly was chosen hoaiecoming at- tendant . Another year came to a beginning, our junior and one of our most busiest years. Darlene Soller and Eugune Egan had dropped out. James Schommer moved to Minneapolis, and Roger Hessian transferred to Nazerath Hall. Sue McCourtney and Shirley Schubert joined us the middle of the year. The officers were; President, Janeene Mahoney; Vice President, Merlyn Buesgens; Secretary, Gerry Bigaouette; Treasurer, Don Zellman. Our advisors were Miss Ley and Mr. Rone. We had our Junoir Class Play, Babys Night Out, directed by Mrs. Albrecht, on November 2. It was a three act comedy and proved to be a grand success. On April 26, we gave the Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet We chose for our theme, ''Moonlight and Roses.'’ It was a beautiful night and everyone had a wonder f u1 time. And now our last year has come to an end. Veronica Healy, Ethel Bigaouette, and Donald Hauer have dropped from the enrollment. Clarence Antonsen moved to Prior Lake and Mike O'Bfien earned his extra credits during the summer. This lisves forty-six of us to finish. We are: Margaret Albrecht, Marvin Anderley, Josephine Bailey, Tom Baily, Delores Bessel, Gerald Bigaouette.

Shirley Schubert was elected queen. LiVerne Schuitx and Mary McDonald were the attendants. George Herman was chosen king. In December we had our class pictures taken and we started work on the annual. Mr. Albrecht announced the class play cast in February and practice started March 16. We gave, the play, We Shook The Family Tree, on April 17. This year's Junior.Senior Prom and Banquet was held May 2. The theme was ''Club 53 . Commencement took place May 21.
