SENIOR CLASS HISTORY We began our high school record as a class of eighty-six freshmen in 1945. Selection of class officers was held and we emerged with the follow- ing stars: Bob Graham, president, Doug Hatton, vice president, Marian Collum, secretary, Carl Penn, treasurer, and Betty Io McCarty, student council representative. The freshman basketball team had a very successful season that year, and because of this recognition, we took our place in the fast moving high school parade. For our initiation, the boys had to dress as girls, and the girls as boys for the day- Stunt night was held to further entitle us to be true citizens of Delphi High. We felt a bit more distinguished when we assumed the title of sopho- mores. With being sophomores came the responsibility of initiating the class of l950. The officers who helped us carry on many other activities were Doug Hatton, president, Dick Cowdin, vice president, Doris lean Bowman, sec- retary, and Carrie Lou Dock, treasurer. With our arrival on the third step of the high school ladder, we became juniors. We were strictly interested in business, and in many well-constructed meetings we fashioned plans for the Prom. Not only did we present a beauti- ful dance decorated in accordance with the theme Moonlight Serenade and with the delightful music furnished by Dick Mordenti's band, but we also acted as hosts for a junior-senior banquet. Our capable directors were Bill Duff, president, Dick Cowdin, vice president, Iane Bush, secretary, and Pat O'Farrell, treasurer. Mr. McCormick helped us present our junior class play, Iune Mad. At-last we are seniors. We accept our places on the senior side of the assembly and through senior parlimentary 'procedure elected Doug Hatton, president, Bud Weidner, -vice president, Betty Io McCarty, secretary, Ruth Ann McKinley, treasurer, Tom Ives and Dick Lucas, sergeants-at-arms. Two of our most beautiful senior girls, Iune Newell and Betty Io McCarty, reigned as co-queens for the Homecoming football game. Our class colois are green and white. The white carnation is our class flower, and our class motto is: We are the miners, success, our gold. Prom our place at the top of the high school ladder, we sometimes look back and smile reminiscently on The Best Years of Our Lives. ' -HELEN ALLEN. 12
