«! £enioA Qtad.3 O iceAd Mh. Floyd T. Binns Mende Lerner S ponsor Treasurer Kennon Eller Secretary Cary Humphries President Missing from picture: Charles Thomas, Vice-President Seniors at last! What a wonderful feeling, but how much the class had to ac- complish, this being their last year as high school teen-agers. The Senior Class resided in home rooms 1 and 2 with Mrs. Maude Witt and Mr. Floyd T. Binns as their teachers, the latter serving the regal class as sponsor. Amid unintelligible jive talk and serious discussion, the officers were elected at the first meeting in form of Cary Humphries, president; Charles Thomas, vice-president; Ken- non Eller, secretary; and Mende Lerner, treasurer. A dignified member of the class ' 47, one Geraldine Jones, was chosen hv the school as Football Queen, and she reigned in glory at the Monogram Club dance on December 13. Other seniors had made great names for themselves at C. H. S. by their outstanding playing on the football team as the ’4(1 season ended. I U ... . The class worked in close cooperation in order to publish their senior yearbook, “The Colonnade.” While they were slaving over features, ads, and subscriptions, it was necessary to begin work on the annual production of the senior play. Directed by Mrs. Witt, they gave “ Young April,” which was acclaimed by all as a great success. Thus the year passed; one activity after another until graduation lay before them and the senior year was completed. They had at last Finished the anticipated and happy day every freshman longs for when he enters the teen-age world. i io y

GLASSES • • • As we entered the freshman class back in 1943, we were entering the beginning of Teen-Age life, for most of us were thirteen. Each year as we passed from freshmen to sophomores, from juniors to seniors, the Colonnade has listed our membership. We now look back on the three years at C.H.S. that we completed and see familiar faces that are no longer with us. In the future, when we open the pages of the ’47 Colon- nade, we will remember the fun we shared and the goals we worked so hard to achieve, for the memories of these happy days will never leave us. .
