Class I lower ..........—White Carnation Colors.................... Blue and White One hundred nine Freshmen enrolled ’way back in 1943. They started their first year in High School by electing the following officers: Don Dunn. President; Norman Perry. Vice-President; Kathleen Huntley, Secretary-Treasurer: Don Fischer, Sergeant at Arms; and Mrs. Dexter, Class Advisor. Soon followed what every Freshman dreads, the initiation, but it turned out to be a great success and everyone had a swell time. Joan Hendrickson brought honor to the class that year by winning the title of May Queen” at the annual May Dance. Everyone started his Sophomore year a little older and a little wiser? Tom Wilson was elected President; Ted Foster. Vice-President; Joan Hendrickson, Secret ary-Treasurer; Don Fischer. Sergeant-at-Arms; and Mrs. Whitworth. Class Advisor. The first duty of the class was to welcome the incoming Freshmen with the traditional initiation which as usual turned out to be fun for everyone. It was the duty of the class to stage the annual May Dance. It turned out to be one of the best ever held at Dallas High School. More glory was brought to the class when Luella Rose won the hono of May Queen.” Next year was a big year for the class of ’48.” Don Fischer was elected President; Jack Sanders, Vice-President; Dolores Enck. Secret ary-Treasurer; Tom Wilson, Sergeant-at-Arms; and Miss Domes, Class Advisor for their Junior year The whole class will always look bark with pride at the great achievement which was their Rinbow Carnival Dance The biggest attraction at this beautifully staged dance, to which other schools were invited, was the fifteen-piece, teen-age orchestra imported from Washington. Later in the spring, the class gave the Seniors a good time at the annual Junior Senior Playday held at Reamer's Rest north of New-herg The last affair sponsored by the Juniors was the traditional Junior-Senior Prom. Music was furnished by Glen Williams’ orchestra from Salem. Adrienne Conatser was our contender for May Queen honors that year. Much of the history for the Senior year has not as yet been made but we are all looking forward to Senior Dress-Up Day, Senior Skip Day, Junior-Senior Playday, and. of course. Graduation Day. Some are filled with a feeling of joy and some with a feeling of regret. We all leave a part of our youth, which wc will never be able to recapture again, as we move on to greater thin :s made possible by our high school years.
