JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS: BARBARA SEWELL, Sergeant-at-Arms; PAT YOUNG, Reporter; MARTHA CROWLEY, Treasurer; MARY SWANSON. Secretary; TERRY MATHENY, President; DEAN THOMPSON, Vice President. Perhaps the busiest year of a student's high school life, the junior year, began with the election of officers. Our elected officers were Terry Matheny, President; Dean Thompson, Vice President; Mary Sue Swanson, Secretary; Martha Crowley, Treasurer; Pat Young, Reporter; Barbara Sewell, Sergeant-at-Arms and Mr. Dwyer, Sponsor. Our class was well represented in all activities of the school. Ten junior boys were on the football team, with eight on the main string and Ron Brooks as a co-captain; three girls and five boys played basketball; twelve junior girls cheered the football team on, with Jannette Byers and Pat Binyon as two of the leaders of the Lionette Pep Club. One of the biggest disappointments of the year was losing the football queen race to the sophomore class by the sum of $1.17 even though we had collected over two-hundred dollars. Our candidate for queen, Shirley Puckett, looked just as lovely in the ceremonies as she would have had she been crowned queen, instead of acting as an attendant at the crowning ceremony. Other honors that came to members of our class were: Wanda Sue Saylors, runner-up for F.F.A. Sweetheart; Martha Crowley, candidate for Annual Queen; Mary Sue Swanson, Award for Creative Writing; Pat Young, Scholarship Award, and Mike Gammill, All-round Boy and History Awards. Of the thirteen members on the high school honor society, six of them, Martha Crowley, Dean Thompson, David Pickard, Pat Young, Rita Winnard, and Sharon Ferguson, were Juniors. Carol Miller and Pat Binyon were members of the Girls’ trio that won Superior at both the district and state music contests, and the boys of our class made up all but two members of the Boys' Glee Club. Under the able direction of our sponsor, Mr. Dwyer, we presented the annual junior play, Finders Creepers. On Friday night, May 18, -the school faculty, school board members, and seniors were our guests at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. The Oklahoma-Western theme was carried out through the use of cowboy boot favors, and other cowboy decorations, while an oil well gushed under the stars overhead. While we look back over a busy and happy junior year we would not forget to thank Mr. Dwyer who has led us through conflict and harmony to the completion of our most successful year.
