The Seniors ........ Class of 1950 Suspension . . . Reflects Light SENIOR CLASS HISTORY ' Sophomore Officers Junior Officers Senior Officers President Robert Blakely David Spencer David Spencer Vice President Arthur Pitts George Bagley Arthur Pitts Secretary Harold Powell Mary Lou Hammond Harold Powell Treasurer Alice Kinnney Robert Blakely Mary Lou Hannnond Having endured the shock of being uprooted and transplanted into a new school in September of 1947, we, the class of 1950, began the growth of a history which will always be remembered. The history of our class is one which shows outstanding accom- plishments in all lines of school activities. Our Junior Play, The All American Family, was a huge successg our Prom even more so. In sports, members from our class have shown outstanding abilities: and who can forget our musicians, clubs, students, and many personalities. We have enjoyed our school life of triumph and hardship, and as we see, not too far distant, the end of a twelve year road, we pause to reminisce: then look forward to graduation and the time when we, as individuals, shall go on to complete our educations.

Nearly five years have elapsed since the close of the second world war. Five years that have seen the United States act as the world doctor--tryillg' to cure world prob- lems and trying to cure world economics. VVe are in this enviable position because our form of government is such that a man or woman has tl1e opportunity to reach the top by his or her initiative. We are free to think-free to act-free to worship and free to live. Our system of education is the envy of the world. Knowing these facts, students of to-day realize that their opportunities are only limited by their will to learn and putting that learning to its best possible use. It behooves the senior finishing high school to keep these facts in mind as he plans his future life. He should play his part in making our form of democratic government so successful that other governments, whose ideologies are in contrast to ours, will want to adopt its form and principles. Every boy and girl finishing high school should plan to take an active part in com- munity life, making of himself a worthy citizen in a truly great democratic government. I congratulate you upon your graduation and wish you every success in your future undertakings.
