Class History As we look back over our four years of high school, we remember all our good times and the many friends we have made. In 1950, a group of 6U anxious and inquisitive freshmen met in the study hall. Our advisors were Mr. West and Mrs. Felt. Initiation day was the highlight of the year. The leader of our class was Allyn Sloat with Dale Foster as his assistant. Mary Heberlein kept our notes, and Kathleen Harter took care of our money. Betty Greenan and Gerald Weyeneth were our representatives on the student council. Our parties consisted of a gym party for the first semester, and an outdoor party for the second semester. Fifty-six members began our second year of high school. Those who left us were: Art Lancaster, Mildred Willis, George Freeman, Dick Condo, Dale Wagester, Johnny Kester, Ernest Grice, Stuart Moore, Douglas Kenny, and Ella Willis. The newcomers were: Dick Pringle, Carol Neaves, and Elsie Trigger. Mary Heberlein led the class until she moved to Centerline, then her assistant, Jessie Bowling, took her place.
