SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS—Roger Wood- CLASS SPONSOR rick, Gail Pittman, Robert Scow, Yvonne Earl. Mr. Delbert E. Miller Seniors Recall High School Days Seniors worked diligently and participated actively in nearly all organizations. From morning until night they worked to support CHS. Early in the morning band members rehearsed music and cheerleaders practiced yells. Paper and annual stafF members attempted to make the best paper and annual ever. The annual staff often returned at night to meet deadline dates. In order to make their plays and operettas a success, cast members rehearsed long hours at night to polish their productions. Athletic boys strove to lead their teams to victory. Some students received honors. Jean Sommer meyer was named the winner of a four year Regents Scholarship. Alternates were Joyce Avery, Terry Brazeal, Juanita Dade, Jennie Deden, Bruce Eickhoff, Roger Fielder, Eugene Gehring, Nancy Heibel, Leslie Hcllbusch, John McGrew, Lillian Mcschke, Darrell Meyer, and Ronald Plageman. Semi-finalists for the National Merit Scholarship test were Terry Brazeal and Jean Sommermeyer. Although some students went unrecognized, they had a personal satisfaction. For many senior's, competitive sports ended. For others it was the last time they would participate in many activities. Some events, however, would be well remembered. On May 8 the Junior-Senior Prom was held; Baccalaureate was May 24. The year came to an end with Commencement, May 25, after which each senior prepared to go his own way—some were college bound; others desired the best job available. The Class of 1964 would now be separated, but the memories of the years would never be forgotten.
