SENIOR CLASS PLAY The underclassmen were Elaine Jackson, as giddy Midge Murphy, and Jimmy Jackson as sleepy Faversham Lightly. The “drah-matic” characters were Tallulah, played by Margaret Pratt, and Miss Ogilvie, the dramatic coach, played by Jo Anne Green. Other teachers were Sandra Monahan as high-strung Miss Goodin, Muriel Hutchins as sensitive Miss Clendenning, Ray Isely as strict Mr. Harj er. and Bill Herlrer as congenial Coach Guthrie. Others in the cast were acidulous Miss Dill. Marilou Pearson; Napoleonic “Tick” Tock. Elwin Rogers; slovenly Mrs. Ratchet. Sonjie Pearson, and pompous Elmer B. Ames. Melvin Grimsby. Coach for the production was Mrs. Alberta Noble. On Friday. May 15. the class play, “No More Homework.” was presented. The setting of the play was the principal's office at Elmer B. Ames High School. When the principal, vice-principal, and school secretary were unable to be in school for a day. the student council officers were asked to take over the school. Main conflicts developed between the pupils and the teachers throughout the story which combined comedy, romance and mystery. The lead was played by Mary Van Slyke who was Pamela Jones, the student council president. Bob Andrus acted the part of Buzz Bailey. Pamela's boy friend. A flirtatious trouble-maker. Shalimar Ames, who tried to win Buzz's attention, was portrayed by Penny Christ-nagel. Another very forward person was Ronald Sassoon taken by Kenny Bauman. SENIOR PROM After a week’s uncertainty, the Senior Prom was held as scheduled at the Automobile Club. Dressed in their finest evening clothes, the seniors were unanimous in their gaiety of spirit. Even the rain did not succeed in dampening the festive mood. The Automobile Club, situated on a bluff overlooking the Minnesota River, proved to be a fine location for the annual dance. With music provided by Dick Finch’s band, everyone danced and enjoyed themselves without thinking of school work drudgeries. When the band played the last number, many realized more fully that their senior year was fast drawing to a memorable close. 22

Providing vim and vigor on the fields and during the assemblies, these cheerleaders did a tremendous job of boosting our school spirit and cheering the teams to victory.
