Patricia Daws, Robert Dwyer, and Janice Stocker did not enter this year, while Barbara Krause, Russell Otterstein, Harry Rose, LeRoy Wilson, and Daniel McCool left us. Mr. Moorehouse was our class sponsor, and we presented a play at the school carnival. At the beginning of our Junior year, forty-nine members were in our class, but we found that Roger Malatacca, Marley Drewelow, and Richard McCarthy were miss- ing from our familiar group. During the year, Norma Buss, Bruce Doty, and Mary Koester left us. Leonard Ferry joined our happy class. Our main project for this year was sponsoring the Junior-Senior prom. Our officers this year were Dick Boyer, President, Jolene Kloepping, Vice-President, Lee Miller, Secretary, Nancy Rupnow, Treasurer, and Joanne Schlueter, Class Reporter.

Oar sponsors were Mr. Campbell and Mrs. Lycan.
