Under the leadership of Jack Booher and the guidance of Mrs. Edna North Knapp, we organized ourselves as a class. Chi ef among our activities during our first year of high school were the class beach party and decorating the auditorium for, and ushering at the senior baccalaureate service. Then we suddenly found ourselves Juniors and coming up in the world. Miss Amber Vivian Turner joined the new Junior class as adyiser, and Ernest Currie became pres- ident. The “big event” of our Junior year was entertain- ing a group of shipwrecked seniors who, invited by cable- gram, arrived in costumes (Hanging from towels and barrels to pajamas.
