Our Junior yearl This, we think, was our most exciting year. The first week of school we ordered our class rings and received them in October. At Christmas we were given a Junior-Senior party by the sponsors of both classes. Then on January 12, we presented our play, Life With Mama, under the supervision of our sponsors. Mrs. Davidson and Mr. Flanagan. We thoroughly enjoyed the studying, rehearsing, and everything else that is necessary for a good play. The ,A great event of the year was our banquet, given in honor of the Senior class. We used the theme, In An Old ' jj Fashion- ed Garden. The gym was beautifully decorated X as an old garden. Soft lights gave the illusion of moon- kv X light. The orchestra played during dinner and for the X - . H dance. What a wonderful time we hadl September 1950-- we are SENIORSI We f I Z selected our personal cards and invitations. Our invita- X tions are the first to feature an etching of our high school. In Jan- uary our pictures in caps and gowns were made. Early in Feb- ruary we selected our Senior play. Who will be in the cast? Wonder what the theme of the Junior-Senior banquet will be this year? Among the honors given to the Seniors were: Charles Peterson and L. J. Ramsey chosen on the all-conference football team, and Jane Gaines chosen to represent the Daughters of the American Revolution. Comes graduation! We are sad at the parting of our classmates and teachers although we look toward the future with courage. We would especially like to express our thanks to Mr. Flanagan for his guidance through the past three years, and to Mrs. Potter go our thanks for her kindly supervision this past year.
