I 1947 ANNUAL 1 1945 - 1946 September 9, 1945, proved a great day for sixteen ambitious Juniors. Coming back to school we welcomed two new members, Kent Ripley and Norma Sonnedecker. ' With Mr. Arva as adviser, we proceeded to elect officers: james Blough, president, Kate Murray, vice president, Pauline Irvin, secretary, Phillip Matteson, assistant secretary, Donald Reese, treasurer, and Kent Ripley and Norma Sonnedecker, student council. We raised money for the banquet, to be given the Seniors, by selling Christmas cards, having bake sales, and picking up potatoes. Un April 5, we gave our junior class play, which was a great success. After our presentation of Kay Beats the Band , we were given a dozen white carnations which were much appreciated. After our work we all enjoyed ourselves at the Iunior and Senior ban' quet in May. We ordered our class rings and sweaters. We received our rings in June, but our sweaters did not arrive until the following fall. 1946 - 1947 At last we are Seniors. Can graduation be far in the future? As officers for our last unforgettable year in school we chose the folf lowing: Kate Murray, president, Dorothy Cherry, vice presidentg Pauline Irvin, secretary, Mary Henderlong, treasurer, Marjoie Mulhollan and Roy Lucas, student council.
