We soon were intricate parts of the scenes, with Miss Edna Graham as our advisor, Audrey Humphriss, star performer, joseph Haber, co-star, Marie Nace, keeper of statistics 5 Dolores LaPlante, treasurer. We now played support- ing roles, taking part in the Junior-Senior Prom, numerous activities, and selling candy between the scenes. We also sponsored what was known as the Junior Party, to which all the performers were invited. It was a great success. We ended the year by taking part in graduation exercises. 1954-With a speed that left us thrilled, excited, and breathless, the ast quarter of the familiar reel swirled to its close. We were absorbed in :he glory of starring in this panorama, engulfed in its magnificence, and :ruly awed by the peak of its rewards.

In order to help secure money for our trip to Washington we were active in selling candy through the fall and winter seasons.
