i i r i Class Mottor More Beyond. Class Color: Blue and Silver. Class Flower: Lily of the Valley. rm cmm y what we remember most was Initiation, when we had to bow to all the upper classmen whenever we'd meet; and then that night too, with all the stupid things they made us do. I guess it was worth It though, for then we really became a part of the high school life. Then there was the day Miss Tibbals walked up through the room with the waste paper basket and asked Lois Smith if she wouldn't like to get rid of her gum. On one of the first days of school that Sophomore year, Doris Hal- stead sighed when Mr. Riddle, the new coach, walked into the rooms and she had to stay after school. Mr. Riddle should have been honored, don't you think? Those were the good old days when Farm Crop class was held in the Legion Hall. Remember the day the boys were playing leap-frog on the way back, and Denis McDonald skinned his nose? That was the year we had English class in the Junior room and Miss Tibbals was always forgetting to bring in her equipment. Wonder if she still forgets? Remember the time Miss Tibbals broke her arm and exams were so nice and easy that six-weeks. One of the big events of our Junior year was the class play, Feathers in a Gale. ' I wonder If the cast still remember those infprm- al parties we had back stage during play practice. Also the dishearten- ing news that Darlene Sisler who had one of leading parts in the play had an operation for appendicitis the day before we put on the play. How proud we were to welcome the Seniors to our Jr. and Sr. banquet Fiesta. After all the planning and worrying it did turn out to be a Success. Has any one forgotten the Blatherskite Club? I doubt it, especi- ally the organizer, Miss Grimm. Anyone could Join who loved the finer things in life. (The dictionary, that is.) Now for the year in school which, of course, was the best. The year when we became promising citizens and knew we were practically grown up. This was the year we all agreed, didn't we, or did we? Remember the trial in Government class In which Clyde Waters was not convicted of setting the school house on fire? Then the day we chose our class motto, flower and color. We agreed then too, didn't we? Especially the great quotation from Lee Benton, Don't put off until tomorrow what can be done today. Remember how the boys laughed when girls got their drivers licenses. They also remembered to hide their car keys. The Farm Management class wouldn't have been complete with out the Senior boys coming late. That all lead up to how hard Mr. Riddle worked introducing square dancing this year. It turned out to be a success. The basketball girls have had a lot of excitement while going to and from games, especially Joyce Henderson, when she forgot to take her trunks to the game at Arlington in 1950. What a game 214.-221 The Dramatic students and Miss Grimm will remember the pre-district speech contest. The weather was so bad they had to stay over night at a Manchester hotel Result; No sleep! As we struggle upward with the gold from our canyon we are sure we will never forget the fun we had digging It.
