Senior Class The Senior class of 1956 spent a happy, fun-filled four years at Danville High School. We have donned our caps and gowns, but will not soon forget the trig and physics problems, the punctuation and themes, the one hundred words per minute dictation, the teaching experience-the cramming for exams, the teachers, parties, dances, clubs, and sports. Leading us through our freshman year was president George Frock. We sported a brilliant green, but not for long. With Ierry Roberts as our sophomore president, we proved ourselves industrious by deco- rating for the All School party and holding a dance. As upperclassmen, we provided the refreshments for Homecoming and un- dertook the responsibility of the Iunior- Senior Prom. Larry Pattison presided that year. Our senior year we elected Ronald Gillum, president, Rae Lewis, vice presi- dent, Kay Lash, secretary, Susan Bengry, social chairman, Sally Enos, historian, and Barney Hammer, Judy Emery, and Donna Bobbett, student council representatives. Directing the Senior committees were Nor- ris Lang, motto, Gerald Smith, song, Sharon McMullen and Steve Smith, program, Mary Ann Pichon, gift, Hank Berg, color, and Iim Timberlake, invitations. Bob Kukla and Dick Renfro composed the class song, Jenna Vaught and Ronald Gillum were chosen as our best citizens- our colors were avocado and gold, our motto, Here today for education, gone tomorrow to serve our nation. Miss Wolff was our invaluable adviser. Ronald Gillum, president and Miss Wolff CLASS OFFICERS Barney Hammer, Kay Lash, Sally Enos, Judy Emery, Donna Bobbett, Rae Lewis. Absent: Susan Bengry.
