Senior Sponsors K Q s Ay. Miss Campbell Miss Cowan Miss Endebrock Miss Wooderson VVhen the commendable spirit of wanting to do things met the class of '45 and its sponsors, it quickly became the commendable spirit of getting things done. Not the sort to stand around and wish, the seniors and their sponsors took on the tough job of managing concessions at home games. They battled wind, rain, crowds and confusion, but raised a fine sum of money. Then they began to help. They financed the programs for the Thanksgiving foot- ball classicg they contributed generously to the annual, the remainder they made over to a class gift fund. Sol Cohen was student concessions manager. His assistants were David Boatman and Glenn Cox. Most of the class members served as salesmen sometime during the sea- son. And the sponsors? Busy as the busiest. Senior Concessions Staff a Second. Freda Ambrozi, Patricia Holtman, David Boatman, Asst. Mgr., Eddie Gray, Glenn Cox, .Anna Marie Whitesell, Rosemary Loubey.
