Class History We, the graduating class of ’53, entered C. H. S. in the fall of 1949. We very soon acquired the usual name “Green Freshmen” — but we proved to be the biggest (and best) Freshman class to enter C. H. S. so far. The Sophomores got us well-acquainted by a small initiation. At our first class meeting we elected Charles Cowan, President: Francis Bennett, Vice President: and Joyce Benner, Secretary and Treasurer. Representing us in Student Council were Ted Clikeman, Beverly Hoehn. and Kari Li Kuhr. Mr. Hutchinson was chosen our class sponsor. As Sophomores we entered C. H.

Our class officers were: James Nelson, President; Joyce Benner, Vice President; and Alice Tilleman, Secretary and Treasurer. To voice us in the Student Council we chose Kenneth McKinnie, Charles Cowan, and Mina MacKay. Mr. Christensen was outclass sponsor. Entering C. H.

For our President we chose Ted Clikeman; Vice President, Alice Tilleman; and Mina MacKay, Secretary and Treasurer.
