Darlne Gunn is our honor roll student, Margie Carpenter says, “How does she do it? Shirley Aden and Jean Blentlinger are taking shorthand this year, Are they going to pass it ? ? Oh, never fear. Now two Einsteins we must introduce, Jay Bower and Jim Meyer-----these lads can deduce. Patsy Kestner and Yvonne Mixer often are seen together; On their feet, they are both as light as a feather. Julia Moellring, is a cute little lass; Wayne Ennen would do anything she would ask. Marie Buskirk didn’t go to the Senior party; Donald Clark the next morning didn’t look very hardy. Barbara Higley and JoAnne Stevens make quite a pair; For many a thing, they don't give a care. Donald Brady and Bob Vonholt live in the same neighborhood; When they're together, they’re up to no good. Wilma Weisheit, the last on roll call, Knows some boys in this town she would sure like to maul. CLASS MOTTO - “With The Ropes Of The Past; We’ll Ring The Bells Of The Future. ’ CLASS COLORS - Black On White 21 CLASS FLOWER - Carnation
