The Freshmen The class of 54, otherwise referred to as the Freshies, is the largest class in school, numbering more than thirty students. Its enrollment has not remained exactly the same in- asmuch as several students moved away and several others started to Byron during the school year. The class has been active as well as large. Many of the students have taken part in band and chorus work; others have shown great interest in agriculture and homemaking. Many of the boys have tried their skill on the football field or the basketball court, and this year's junior varsity basketball team was composed mainly of members from the Class of 54. On the fifth of October the Freshmen were initiated by the Sophomores, and on the ninth of March they entertained the Sophomores at a party at the school. Class officers elected at the beginning of the year were: president, Dennis Hardesty; vice-president, Jeanne Whetsel; secretary, Norlyn Taylor; treasurer, Gary Hess; student coun- cil, Dick L. Swanson and Kathy Hess. — 24
