Then we met and for our first quarter we eleeted as president, Robert Brusman ; vice-president, Henry Sears; secretary, Ruth Manes; treasurer, Geraldyne Wienlioft; social chairman, Ernestine Brown. We chose Miss Bernita Burns as sponsor. The first party was held in the gym; dancing and games were enjoyed. Later the class sold candy at the Riley-Elkhsrt basketball game to help start us out on a financial basis. In our second quarter our new classmates from Roosevelt met with us to elect officers : Robert Brusman, president; Henry Forbes, vice-president ; Ruth Manes, secretary; Geraldyne Winhoft, treasurer; ,Joc Sel- lers, social chairman. To end our second quarter, we retained Miss Burns as sponsor and elected the fol- lowing: Joe Sellers, Robert Weaver, James Adams, William Ludwig, and Mary E. Bowser. During this year we had a class party in the gym, and sold candy at a basketball game. We also sponsored a George Washington jitney dance in the gym. In U)3f, our junior year, William Ludwig was chosen president with Geraldyne Wienhoft assisting him, Doris Spickett, Peggy Lyndall, and Joe Sellers carrying out remaining duties. In October, we had a joint party with the IIC ' s in the gym and in the spring another party was held at which dancing was the main feature. The next semester, James Adams was elected president with Doris Spickett as his assis- tant. Other officers were Howard Eaton, Robert Brusman, and Ruth Manes. The biggest event of this year was the .Junior-Senior Prom, May 19. lield at the Spinks at Lake Wawa- see. At six-thirty a banquet was given, with dancing later forming a pleasant evening. To start our senior year .James Adams held his former position. Other officers were Robert Brusman, Geraldyne Wienhoft, Ruth INIanes and Joe Sellers. To bring us into tlie home stretch, Ray Holmes was chosen as our leader. Robert Brusman and Ger- aldyne ' ienhoft retained their offices with Ty Scluiler taking care of the finances and James Adams as social chairman. A very interesting Senior Day jirogram was given which brought out many unsusjieeted talents. Onr class banquet which was held in the cafeteria, was well attended; the theme was A Race Track . Many interesting speeches were given and Miss Burns was presented with a gift. We were very fortunate in having Miss Burns with us during our four years as she was invaluable, with her excellent judgment, her fairness, and keen interest in our class activities. We could always count on her for help and cooperation in our |)roblems. ' ithout her guidance, we would often have been bewildered and inefficient. yiotto — Not finisiicd. just begun.
