S enior off icer5 The Seniors are really going places this year under the leadership of Doris Brown, treasurer; Susanne Markley, vice president; Dick Roth, president; Bill Conner, athletic coun¬ cil member; and Nondes Kipfer, sec¬ retary. lijem oirS of the da $6 of 1949 At last the time has come. We are grad¬ uating from Allen High School. As we hear our names called one by one, we rise and are handed our diplomas. Many memories are rushing through our minds—memories which will never be forgotten—school dances, sports, coke parties, first dates; and most of all we shall always remember the friends we’ve made. Our thoughts travel back to a warm day in September, 1945, when we entered up on something entirely new and different—high school. Although on that first day we thought ourselves quite grown-up, as we look back now we realize that we were just as green as those who had come before us and fully deserved the name “greenie.” Struggling with locker combinations and trying to find the right room in a five minute intermission took up most of our time at first, but we soon learned to treat those lockers gently, and they worked much better.

We increased our treasury by bringing white elephants and auctioning them off to members of the class, and finished the evening by dancing. Our officers this year were Dick Roth, pres¬ ident; Sally Foster, vice president; Polly Croy„ treasurer; Betty Thoma, secretary; Jerry Leimgruber, athletic council member. Junior year! At last we were upper class- men. We loved to flash those long awaited class rings.
