For it seems only yesterday that we first entered Creston. Some of us came as seventh-graders, fresh from grade school, eager and willing. More came in the eighth and ninth grades and still others joined us periodically throughout the years. We came from all over, from city schools and country schools to the school on the crest. And as individual as we were, we learned to become one, a welded, hardwork- ing class. Even as freshmen we showed that we were a class with true initiative by beginning the annual St, Pat's Prance. As sophomores we continued our activities by presenting the rollicking Daisy Dip with its beautiful Eif- fel Tower. We first experimented in demo- cratic living as sophomores, too, when we elected our first class officers and become known as the class of 551' We didn't even stop for breath as we plunged into our junior year. First there was the Harvest Hop, then the Amateur Hour and that colossal Junior Revue. And an end to all ends, our lovely Junior-Senior Prom in the.Black and Silver Room of the Civic Audi- torium. We looked at the seniors present and said, Next year it will be our turn. And then our turn came. A glorious senior year! It started with the election of a dazzling homecoming court and the co-spon- sorship of the Homecoming with the Alumni Association. For our project we chose to buy new curtains for the stage and we worked hard to earn the money by sponsoring the Mid-term Mingle and many other projects. We kept them in stitches with our hilarious senior play, Money Mad! With the always generous help of Miss Lois Conrad our play packed them in and sent them away saying, Marve- lous! Our Senior Banquet at Second Con- gregational Church and Senior Dress-up Day brought our year to a close as we readied our- selves for commencement itself. And now it is over and we look out into a whole new life. Our years of fun and friend- ship have drawn to a close and we must now leave our home for so many years. But truly, it did seem only yesterday.
