JANUARY CLASS OF 1945 • The January class of 1945 will always have fond memories of the last semester at Central. The party which had as its theme the Red River Valley Gang.” was the highlight of the term and will not soon be forgotten. The girls in gingham dresses and the boys in blue jeans and large plaid shirts danced Virginia reels and square dances to calls given by Mrs. Mansfield. The ”Boys’ Ballet” performed by Erick Wickstrom, Vernon Erickson, Leroy Nyhus. John Ubcll, Kenny Walsh, Mike Rich-dorf, and Maurice DeLong, brought forth gales of laugh- ter, as did the dancing of the Butterfly” by Mr. Markley and Mrs. Mansfield. The class play, Every Family Has One,” was presented in December under the direction of Miss Jeanne Troussant. With the adoption of an enlarged budget, every senior received the school publications and had the usual senior expenses paid for in advance. Baccalaureate services were held in the school auditorium on January 22. Out of a class of 160 pupils, 22 boys received their diplomas by earning credits in the armed services. The class was graduated on January 25. • SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS— M. Miller. Mi . Lauby, II. Knuditon, L. Pawlak. • SENIOR CLASS CABINET—!.. Nyhus, B. Sorenson. R. Leak, M. Harford. H. Knudtton, Mr. Weber, Mi'. Lauby, Mrs. Mansfield, B. Hawker, L. Pawlak, M. Miller. B. Bergstrom, R. Paquin, V. Erickson, J. Peterson. • REPRESENTATIVE CENTRALITES—J. Dow. V. Erickson, B. Sorenson. R. Leak, J. Peterson, H. Knudtson. SPECIAL HONORS • Early in the term the January class elected their four officers. Walter Lauby was chosen president; Laurel Pawlak, vice-president; Mavis Miller, secretary; and Howard Knudtson, treasurer. The class cabinet consisted of nine members besides the four officers. The members were the chairmen and co-chairmen of seven committees. Heading the class day committee was Vernon Erickson. This committee worked along with the social, service, and program committees on the planning of the party and banquet. The social committee, with Jacquelyn Dow and Roger Leak as co-chairmen, also arranged for any social events the class desired. Ruth Paquin and William Bergstrom shared the responsibility for the service committee who got the scenery for the class play and arranged all the tables and furniture for the class banquet. The duties of Jeanne Peterson, chairman of the publicity committee, were to see that the class got enough, and the right kind, of publicity. Robert Dawson, as chairman of the memorial committee, had charge of the business management of the class play and with the profits selected a lecture stand and book case for the library as the class memorial. The class play committee with its chairman, Leroy Nyhus, chose the play to be presented by the class. There are many lengthened advisory periods in which the seniors have nothing to do. During these, programs were presented under the direction of the program committee. The committee was headed by Marjorie Harford. The honor of being elected a Representative Ccntralite was given to six students. They were Bernice Sorenson, Jeanne Peterson, Jacquelyn Dow, Roger Leak, Vernon Erickson, and Howard Knudtson. Because the class was so small, six instead of the usual ten representatives were elected. 8
