 J44 (AtQief, As we take time at last to look back over the years, especially the last four, we recall many happy and som- ber moments. In September, 1950, the freshman room was amply filled with fifty-two happy freshmen under the guidance of Mr. Hatsell. Although it was the first step of the im- portant four, we started very enthusiastically by electing our class officers. We chose Holly Spears as president; John Button, vice president; Shirley Jardine, secretary; and Norman Gifford, treasurer. Later, when Holly moved away, John Button assumed the presidency and Carol Boeckle was elected vice president. We were well represented in sports and we were very proud of having Hazel Goodfellow and Dawn Stedman on the J.V. cheerleading squad. In our freshman year, we began working on a project that was going to take us four years to complete. The project was to go to Washington on a Senior trip. Through- out the years our motto in all activities became “Wash- ington or Bust!! We all enjoyed our freshman year, but looked for- ward to our next step as sophomores. In September, 1951, we were once more under the guidance of Mr. Hatsell; but this year as sophomores, all forty-six of us. Our class officers were chosen: John Button, president; Norman Gifford, vice president; Bar- bara Mintonye, secretary; and Gary Shephard, treasurer. We were well represented by both boys and girls in sports and on the cheerleading squad. Many participated in other activities such as: Student Council, Special Chorus, and Dramatic Club. Our first big campaign was the sale of magazine sub- scriptions. We-divided into two teams, the boys vs. the girls. The girls won and, as forfeit, “Slave Day was held with the boys acting as slaves. They spent most of the day carrying books, battling the crowds in the cafeteria, generally working hard and we girls did appreciate it. Barbara Mintonye was chosen ring chairman and rings were ordered. We sponsored two dances which added to our treasury for the Senior trip. We ended our sophomore year with $666.97 in our treasury. Then came the step that made us upperclassmen. The juniors assembled under the able guidance of Miss Ben- son. We again started the year by electing our class officers. John Button was elected president; Ron Sand- holzer, vice president; Barbara Mintonye, secretary; and Norman Gifford, treasurer. We began to sell school jackets, and pencils with the basketball schedule on them. They proved a popular sales item and many may be seen about the school. Along with basketball season, came the sale of potato chips. We also sold magazine subscriptions. All of these helped to fortify the treasury for the Senior trip. Then came the big event of the year, the “Junior Prom ' We decided to have it May 22nd with “William- son's Parisians. The theme was Land of Make Believe. The gym was decorated in yellow, green, and white crepe paper with small figures from the land of make believe. John Button and Beverly Bryant were crowned king and queen. It was a great success. We chose Bob Frazer to represent our class at Boys' State. We were well represented in sports, cheerleading. Special Chorus, Student Council and other activities. We ended the year with $1029.76 in our treasury and a feeling of self-satisfaction. Then, at last, we were seniors. Imagine! It was hard to believe, but we finally settled down under Mr. Pash- ley's leadership. The “Petticoat Government, as it was termed, consisted of president, Pat Conley; Vice President, Shirley Jardine; secretary, Barbara Mintonye,- and treas- urer, Beverly Meyers. The seniors were active in sports, Special Chorus, Stu- dent Council and other activities. The first project of the year was a dance. “The Korn Kob Hop was a great success. On December 18, 1953, we had our Spaghetti Din- ner with which the mothers so graciously helped. It was a great success and it added about $150 to our treasury. Right after Christmas, we moved into the new school and everything seemed wonderful. We then set about working busily in preparation for the Senior Ball on January 29th. Having the first big dance in the new gym meant that we really had to have everything perfect. We engaged Dick Martin's Orchestra and chose Winterama for our theme. The gym was decorated with snowflakes, a snowman, and evergreens. There also was a large mural of a winter scene at one end. The dance was a grand success and everyone had a wonderful'time. Although our treasury was ever increasing, we were still short of the $2000 mark. Plans were then made for a Senior Play to be held April 9th. The Little Dog Laughed was the title of the three-act comedy that was chosen. Everyone worked hard and it proved a very successful evening socially and financially. We also appreciated the time and work spent by the mothers in the Rummage and Bake Sale which boosted our treasury greatly. Finally, one day in class meeting, it was announced that our tickets to Washington, the hotel, and tours had been paid. Forty-five sighs of relief were heard as we realized our trip to Washington was no longer a hope. On Good Friday, forty seniors left for Washington with our chaperons: Mrs. Barmore, Miss Arthur, and Mr. Pash- ley. We all enjoyed seeing Washington; but we were very glad to get home, even at five o'clock in the morning. Ron Sandholzer and John Button were chosen to edit our yearbook. I think the work of the editors and the staff is well shown by this book. At last, we have come to the day when we are to leave C.C.S. to find our way in the world. We are all looking forward to the future; but we will never forget these past four years. We would like to thank Mr. Bray- men and the faculty for their guidance through the years.
