most important function of the year, the Junior Prom, which was held at the Owlis Home on April 11, 1947. In a colorful ceremony Virginia Latsch was crowned Queen of the Promi' by Alice Heist her predecessor. Her four beautiful attendants were LaRue Reinhard, Doreen Reese, Eleanor Koze, and Nancy Wleida. To close our Junior year we bid the Seniors goodbye at our last social event of the year, The Senior Farewcllf' Ready and willing we entered on the last round of our high school career. Neil Kline was once again elected our class president. VVe now had many of our boys and girls taking part in every phase of school life. The Boogie Bouncef' our Halloween dance, opened our social functions on October 25, 1947. This was followed by the always popular Sadie Hawkinis Danceu on November 15, 1947. Then, with pride, we presented on the stage Arsenic and Old Lace, a thrill-packed comedy, with plenty of laughs. For three consecutive nights we displayed our talent before large audiences in the high school auditorium. To start our Christmas vacation off with a Hbangv we held the Snow Drift Dancev on December QQ, 1947. In the remaining months of school we took field trips to the State Hospital, County Jail, and Court House which proved very interesting and educational. After hurried goodbyes to underclassmen and attending Baccalaureate serv- ice we came to the end. On June 4, 1948 at Commencement, 145 Seniors received their certificates of education, their diplomas. To add a fitting climax to our social life at Emmaus High School we held the Senior Ball which was enjoyed immensely by all. ADVISERS Mus. MOYEI: Mic. ORTT MR.

Each one waited patiently to be assigned to his room and begin his high school career. On September 8, 1944 We held our first class meeting at which time we elected the class officers to lead us through our freshman year. Our chance to prove our worth came in February when we presented The Blackoutf, the annual freshmen minstrel. On May 4, 1945 we danced to the tune of Dick Burianis orchestra at The Blue Bell Ballf, our first social event of the year. Then three days later with jubilant hearts we received the news of Germany's surrender to the Allies. Having passed the summer, in which we received the news of the Japanese surrender on August 14, 1945 which meant the end of the war, we returned to school. And now, being Sophomores we shook off our timidness and took part in more extra-curricular activities and school functions. We had the pleasure of presenting the Sadie Hawkin's Dance, which is always a novelty. Because of our standing as Sophomores we also had the pleasure of holding the Shamrock Shuflien on March 15, 1946 in honor of Saint Patrick's Day. Time meant nothing for the term was soon over. We were eager for our Junior year for it meant we would now take part in many sporting events, clubs, and activities. Neil Kline was elected president which proved a wise choice because of his able leadership. We opened our social events with the Goblin,s Hopn on October 26, 1947. The Junior's dramatic ability was brought to light with the Declamation Contest in which Walter Kirschman took top honors. At a class meeting the Rose was chosen as the class flower and Maroon and White the class colors. With eagerness galore We held the U41 CLASS OFFIC1' RQ NEIL KLINE, President CLAIRE GARM.AN, Treasurer NANCY WEIDA, Secretary FLOYD Drums, Vice-President
