Illogene Burkholder, Jessie Worthington, Virginia Wilson, Melvin Chernault, john Henry Lewis, Charles Stroker, Darline Ogden, Mellie llardesty, and Helen Srote. Mr. Krueger was our pilot for half of the lap and Mr. Kerns the last half of our journey.

With Mr. Kerns as our pilot and Miss Cobb as our stewardess we traveled on to the next to the last lap of our journey. It was on this lap that the High School High Lites inade its first appearance. One of our main stopovers was the presenting of the junior Class Playg another stopover was secured to give :1 Banquet for the plane ahead of us. The group of passengers who joined us this trip were Velma Hopkins, Richard Deters, Bernard Ebers, Lawrence Miller, Richard Schuckenbrock, Scott Straube, and Ambrose Schumacher. The twelfth lap of our journey as the end of all pleasant journeys are has been very short. This year, adding Louise Haines, Junior Harrelson, Lyle Goodman, Mellie Hardesty, and Howard Moss, we brought our passenger list up to forty-five. This year. as most Senior years are, has been full of activity. I am sure we shall always remember our many picnics. parties, sunrise breakfast, our trip to jefferson City, and all the other events we enjoyed. .-Xs we complete our journey in Bowling Green High School we shall never forget the kind cooperation that we have received from the faculty at all tunes during our four years in High School. , , XYith the fainting sound of may our spirit for her never die sounding in our ears we say good bye to our Alma Mater, Dear Old Bowling Green High. -N
