because nature disagreed with our date and took its own course in the form of a snow storm, the party was postponed one week. A variety of games, a scavenger hunt, and dancing furnished our entertainment. The first convo we gave this year was on December 31, when we presented a resume of school activities, which was obtained by searching through copies of four and one-half volumes of our school paper. The second convo we gave, in April, was a playlet entitled, The Job for Me . This was a review of what some of our former students were doing and why some had chosen certain courses in high school. After we passed our exams at the end of this year we found ourselves so-called upperclassmen. After a glorious summer vacation wc returned to the class rooms of dear ole Edison with a great deal of responsibility placed upon our shoulders. Our class of ' 44 had diminished from fifty-six at the end of the freshman year to a mere thirty- four. Many of those who left our class either entered the armed services or took war jobs. Again the class was led by a compe- tent group of officers: Connie Karras, president; Robert Camp- bell, vice-president; Priscilla Dault, secretary; Marian Thorne, treasurer; Miss Nabhan and Mr. Teeter, sponsors. A rather high percentage of the boys participated in athletics — baseball, basketball, and track. Wc really had a big year, which started out with Matinee dances for making money quite successful l Included in our activities were class party, the rolling skating party, and the Junior Play, Don ' t Keep Him Waiting. This, directed by Mrs. Wiggins, proved to bo a huge success financially, and was received by a most appreciative audience. The crowning event of our soul-3earing, heart-breaking work of the year was the annual Junior-Senior Prom at Mar- quette Pavilion, Saturday, May 8, with Henry Kayner and his orchestra. After a hectic, but happy, year, we passed through the portals to that rank where we are known as Seniors. Our class has seen nineteen of its members enter the armed ser- vices during these four years. The class has been ably led this year by James Frederick, president; Norma Schleff, vice-president; Mary Prince, secre- tary; and Robert Swift, treasurer. They were supported and guided by their sponsor, Mrs. Chapman (formerly Miss Eshelman) . At the beginning of the year we received our class rings — wasn ' t that a proud day? (But where are all of them now?) When the announcements and cards arrived May 2, we knew it wouldn ' t be long!
