All the grace and dignity of our colonial ancestors seemed to be present that night at our Colonial Banquet. A There is an old saying that the Senior is the most dignified creature imaginable. Perhaps so, but we did not let this dignity interfere with the good times we enjoyed this year. Sometimes our times were so good that a list of names greatly increased the list on the detention book. 'But of course this time to make up merely gave us some time for much needed study. Several members of our class are interested in teaching as a vocation, and our Normal Training class numbers seven. During our Junior and Senior years, we have completed the course outlined. This year each student has had one week's practice teaching in a rural school. This teaching experience will prove valuable to all the students, especially Elsie Stout and Betty Jo Leppert, who are going to teach in rural schools next year. This yeargthe musical organizations entered more events in the contests than ever before, with the Seniors contributing their talents. Many of these entries won the privilege of going to the State contest, and our class is justly proud of Jeanne Hoskins, who is going to the National contest to sing her Soprano solo. We are also proud of John Chuck who made a very good showing in basketball this year. John was a member of the Ke-Wash and All Sectional basketball teams. Richard Arnold was also a member of the Ke-Wash basketball team, and a second team member of the Ke-Wash football team. Again this year, the girls won the class Basketball championship, led by their star forward, Isabelle Pacha, Isabelle was also elected Football Pep Queen and was crowned at our Homecom- ing game with Richland. Several of our girls were members of a new- ly formed organization, the Pep Club, and Mildred Horner, a member, was also one of our cheer leaders. Three members of the one-act contest play, 0TriflesU,were from our class. We also presented a three-act play, WSunny Days Farmn, which was surrounded by mystery and suspense,. and greatly enjoyed by all who BEM it. In the com ercial department, John Chuck entered the amateur typing contest, and placed third. Mildred Horner and Patricia Edwards were able to transform words into little symbols known as shorthand with enough speed to become members of the shorthand contest team. We Seniors will always remember the pleasant days we spent at Brighton High schbol, and we hope we have loft something of value by our brief stay here.
