,-F .rec i ,, ? 'Q Sy A if hav sie.-Q .- gm. us. M 34 t NISIGI2 The Class of 'Sh started out with fifty-five members as Freshies. Our offi- cers were: president, Allan King: vice-president, Arlon King, secretary, Allie May Staufferg treasurer, Leroy Miller, Student Council member, John Kelley. We lost Rosemary Trattles, Jeanette Robertson, Fritz Hagelgans, Allie May Stauffer, Keith Kline, John Kelley, and we gained Charles Doran and Betty Lou Jacob. Rich- ard Hill and Mary Good were chosen as our candidates for the Carnival king and queen. For our initiation the boys wore skirts and blouses, nylon hose, shoes with high heels, ladies hats, and plenty of make-up. The girls wore overalls, sweat shirts, and kitchen pans on their heads for hats. They were not allowed to wear shoes and had to carry pipes. All the difficult tasks were assigned to them. We lived through it somehow and gave a return party to the sophomores later on in the year. Mrs. Ash was our class advisor. It was during our freshman year that we learned that we were not quite as smart as we thought we were. We all agreed that Mr. Judd and Mr. Flowers had something to do with this. Our sophomore year found us with forty studious nkids,H tolling with our textbooks in the long climb to become juniors. Our officers were: president, Allan King, vice-president, Arlon King, secretary, Leroy Miller, treasurer, John Nystromg Student Council members, Allan King and Mary Good, reporter, Patricia Noga. We lost Durwood Heath, Donald Bryngelsong Jerry Hastings, Robert Neuen- schwander, Barbara Wehrly, Velma Bontrager, and Barbara Ash. Miss Wilma Lady- man was our class advisor. Allan King took over the duties of president again in our junior year. Arlon King was vice-presidentg Leroy Miller, secretaryg John Nystrom, treasurer, Harold Belote, Student Council member, Barbara Ash, reporter. Barbara Ash re- turned to the fold and we lost Richard Hill. Mrs. Virginia Ash directed our Junior Play, nThe Brain Storm,H given on March 13th. Doris Hackenburg was our candidate for Hallowe'en queen and served on the queen's court. For our Junior- Senior Reception, the gym was decorated with bells and trellises, covered with flowers. The theme, 'The Ropes of the Past Ring the Bells of the Futuren was taken from the senior class motto. Mrs. Flora Ambs was our class advisor. As juniors, we had the privilege of marching in with the graduating Seniors of '53 at Commencement. It was at this next year it would be our turn to march last time. time that it first dawned upon us that down the aisles of Colon High for the As seniors, we lost Helen Masters, Mary Good Kinter, Gloria Moyer Hargreavq Betty Lou Jacob Hazen, and Janis German: and we gained David Taylor. Our offi- cers were: president, Allan Kingg vice-president, Arlon Kingg treasurer, John Nystromg secretary, Leroy Miller: Student Council member, Harold Belote, and Lynn Ross, Clase Reporter- We gave a very successful play in our senior year called UNO More Home Work,H directed by Mrs. Virginia Ash. We selected Carol Schrader as our D.A.R. Pilgrim. At the end of the year, we had earned enough money to take us to Wash- ington, D.C. for a five-day trip. Twenty-nine seniors took the trip along with our advisor, Mr. Earl Haight, and his wife. Reverend Morris Howell, of the Colon Methodist Church, delivered our Bac- calaureate sermon. Our speaker for Commencement was William V. Bailey, an at- torney ln Battle Creek and a former mayor. Our class colors were blue and gold, our class flower was the red rose. The boys wore blue gowns, and the girls wore white gowns for our graduation. Our class motto was HToday Decides Tomorrow.n On the third day of June, the Class of 'Sh said farewell to the school that had for so long been their home. The fun and work of thirteen years now turns from realities to memories. . ,qs IU! 'si we, 13 -' . W
