The CHARHIAN Talent Scout Maxine Miller was mistress of ■ceremonies in the first talent as- sembly that the junior high held during the year. Much of Charlotte high's talent develops from these grades. Other eighth graders in the as- sembly were Barbara Brown and Jane Ann Murphy who played a piano duet. Later on Barbara gave n reading with Louise Berg entitled. •It s Fun to Drive.” which was later presented for senior high. Harriet Wilcox played a piano solo and Shirley Harmon gave a clarinet «election, which ended the assembly. On April 25. the junior high had another assembly which was mostly eighth grade talent. Hans Kardel was radio announcer and eighth grade girls were characters in a play called Just Before the Prom. The girls were as follows: Janice Hoot. Margaret Vance. Joyce Hughes. Jane Hlgby. Louise Berg. Donna Hambleton. Jo Ann Reiner. Sharon Farrier, Patsy Priesman and Barbara Brown.

President s Message Charlotte class of 195! held sev- eral parties during the year and sponsored two dances. Junior high together had five dancing parties. The eighth grade also had a class party and a valentine party. Many of the class took part in a talent assembly for the junior high which turned out to be very enter- taining. Several junior high stu- dents took part in the senior high talent assembly also. The eighth grade basketball team succeeded in winning five out of six of its games with other schools. In the future we hope to have a very good team in sportsmanship and in playing. We wish to thank Mr. Paajanen for coaching junior high. He did a fine job. We wish to thank Mrs. Kurtz. Mrs. Weymouth and Mrs. Wildern. the advisers for the eighth grade, who did an outstand- ing job in helping us along through the year. Janice Root, our eighth grade queen, was quickly recognized as having all the qualities of a queen. Hans Kardel. Eighth Grade President.

The CHARHIAN Talent Scout In the first home talent assembly of the year several freshmen in- creased their self confidence b appearing before the student body. They proved in addition that they have a great deal of talent by pre senling an assembly by themselves in May. On the program in the general talent assembly. Rodney Wood played a cornet solo. Smoke Gets in Your Eyes. Later on Velma Thuma sang. “The Things We Did Last Summer, accompanied by Diane Martin. Carleton Dornan added his vocal arrangement of How Deep is the Ocean to the list of musically talented tenth graders. And the school heard more of Carleton. Velma and others through- out the year in various assemblies. Many more deserve to present their talent in future activities of the class. Previous Performances Joe Palooka.

President s Message We. the class of 1950, hud many enjoyable events during the year. They began with a hay ride in which we journeyed out to Mrs. Lipsey’s farm. A sliding party was held in February on the golf course after which the group returned to the high school for hot dogs, hot chocolate and dancing. We spon- sored a dance on March 15, which turned out quite successfully even though the date was between tour- nament nights. The class suceeded in putting on an entertaining assembly in May. Donna Walker was very justly elected class queen and the class was proud to see her crowned at the journalism carnival. I should like to take this oppor- tunity to thank our class advisers. Miss Wesche, Mrs. Lipsey, Mr. Paajanen and Mr. Ledden, for their assistance in making our first year in high school very prosperous. Jerry Clark. Freshman President.
