10 THE TOOT CLASS OF ’48 PASSES IN REVIEW Our first important step inside the por- tals of C. H. S. was the elections of class of- ficers. With the help of our advisors, Miss Mackey and Mrs. York, we chose Robert Capparelli as president, Mary Davis as vice- president, Mary Strano as treasurer and Joyce Taylor as secretary. Through initiation, the upper classmen formally introduced us to high school ways. The sophomores decided our artistic abilities called for another demonstration, so we be- came hosts at our first assembly, the first in a long line of entertainment. Then, on October 28th, 1944, we sponsored a Halloween party to raise our financial standing. All the class participated and the result was a tremendous success. By September of 1945 we had outgrown the lowly stage and were now upper class- men ourselves. Mrs. Laurson (then Miss Richardson) took over Mrs. York’s position as advisor. The class officers were; president, Gerald Relyea, vice president, Joyce Taylor, seci-etary, Shirley Jones and treasurer Neal Haynes. Our turn had come! During the first days of session we initiated the freshmen and a good time was had by all. We hope we were not judged too harshly. To get better acquainted with each other we held a Christmas party December 15, 1945 with an open dance in the gym following. Re- gardless of the sugar shortage, our sweet tooth was easily satisfied with the abundant cakes. The third year found us in the station of juniors. Now we were important individ- uals. To lead us at this turning point we chose Joyce Taylor as president, Neal Hayn- es as vice president, Mary Davis as secretary and Shirley Jones as treasurer. Our first dance of the year was held September 6, 1946. We were fortunate enough to secure the privilege of having the Halloween party on October 25, 1946. Besides swelling the treasury, it provided an enjoyable evening and a safe and sane Halloween for everyone concerned. Two important things occurred during our junior year. It was then that we first bought pencils to sell. We wish to thank everyone for patronizing our stock. Then, too, at the beginning of the second semester we ordered our class rings. No doubt all the students remember our Junior Prom—full of color and beauty. Bar- bara Simpson and Shirley Jones as co-chair- men directed the hard working classmen in making our “Carnival Circus” a success. To close our eventful year we honored the graduates with a Junior-Senior picnic. If the seniors enjoyed it as much as we enjoy- ed giving it, it certainly was well worth the time and effort. September of ’48 brought us within sight of our goal. Under the leadership of president Haynes, vice president Toole, secretary Moore and treasurer Jones the class sponsored sev- eral dances, including the Halloween party in October, which helped to fill out our treas- ury. On March 19th, 1948 we presented our last assembly for the student body. Our theme was “We’ll Give You Something to Remember Us By”, and we hope that’s what we did. With graduation in view we began plans for the Senior Ball and the “Toot”, our final undertaking. We would like to thank Miss Mackey for her guidance and counsel thruout our four years and Mrs. Laurson, for her co-operation in our activities during the two years that she was with us. —SHIRLEY JONES
