,,-4' Af' -ff 49' . CM 5.,1.115T0f?V In September, 1944 we began our venture through high school mmder the guidance of Mr. Sturge, Mrs. Lawson and Miss Yack. Our first dance that year was in April. This affair, ' Lucky Strike Shuffle , netted us the most profit ever made at a C.M. dance. It was held in connection with the music festival which was held in our auditorium the following night. Our Freshmen officers were Bertha McLaughlin, pres identg Russell Marshall, vice president, Clara Perrault, sec' retary, and Jane Rood, treasurer. Our Sophomore year also proved to be successful. We were fortunate in having the guidance of Mr. Burrington and Mrs. Lawson. Our officers were Donald Sears, pres' ident, Joe Foley, vice president, Helen Weber, secretary, and Bertha McLaughlin, treasurer. We sponsored two dances, Corn Shock Shuffle, and Huba, Huba, Huba with music by the Ozark Mountain Boys. We purchased phono' graph records to further our talent in dancing. As Juniors we had as advisers, Mr. Burrington and Mrs. Dann. The following were elected as officers: Fred Martin, presidentg joe Foley, vice president, Ruth Crim, secretaryg and Harold Kreisel, treasurer. We sponsored as our first event a dance to which we gave the name Cider Jug Jig. It proved to be a social and financial success. We purchased our Senior rings. As Seniors - well, our record is rather fully accounted for within the covers of this book. A busy year? Of Course. A happy year? No One, Will Deny It. fe-2 21
