It is almost unbelievable that we, the class of 1952, have completed our Senior year and are now graduating from Memorial High School. It was less than three years ago that we entered the old school as eager, but slightly frightened Sophomores. The time since then is crowded with memories-Columbia hall, pep sessions and games, the annex, formals, studies, plays, concerts, and the big move. As Wee Sophs, we elected as our class officers Danny Green, Roger Cary, and Carol Jean Sweeney-president, vice president, and secretary-treasurer. Our biology classes traveled to Chicago and we chose whether we wanted to explore the Field Museum or the Museum of Science and Industry. We can't forget the carnival, or the big basketball game when we lost to Wauwatosa in the state tournament by one point. In our Junior year the class officers chosen to lead us were Danny Green, Terry Po- laski, and Pat Corbit. We selected our class rings and showed them off with pride. Then we moved to the new High School. An all school election was held in the spring for our student council leaders and we elected Danny Green, Fred Gobel, and jackie Stevens. Kathryn Fenne and Marcus Hanson reigned as king and queen at the Junior-Senior prom held in the big gym. Roger Cary, Frank Clarke, and Karla Michelke were our Senior class officers. I-lead editor of the Increscent was Don Riedell and Carol Jean Sweeney headed the Beloiter staff. Tarzan Honor was chief hall monitor. The state student council Convention was held in Beloit, and what fun it was making preparations for it. Two plays highlighted the year, Cheaper by the Dozen and our own Senior class production, Our Town. All this we remember. And we, the Senior class, hope that the school years of future classes will be as en- joyable as ours have been. PAGE 9
