H598 T PRESIDENT-JIM CASSIDY The plotqand script of Student Council proceedings depended largely on the chief maker of motions , Jim Cassidy. able leader of the jolly seniors. VICE-PRESIDENT-HELEN FRANCISCO Quiet and reserved. Ijlelen contributed many good ideas to help develop the scenes in the student government act while serving as vice-president of the Class of '48, SECRETARY-TREASURER--ED LARSON A letternian in football. basketball. and track, Ed, the boy with the raie ense of humor. acted as secretary- treasurer of the well-known Senior Class. Looking back at their three years in E. l-l. S., one finds that the class of '48 as Sopho- mores were reputed not to have been quite so bewildered by high school as some of their predecessors, At their first class meeting they elected as their officers Bob Farnsworth, president, Dan Hagen, vice-president, and Delores Woodworth, secretary-treasurer. Many sophomore boys turned out for sports, several winning letters. The class will never forget that first year-those first pep assemblies, a Kodak every Friday, being admitted to the Ciulls' Nest at last, and that first Campus Day. The next fall the class came back as juniors. The class officers, President Ray Secoy, Vice-president Dan Hagen, and Secretary-treasurer Bonnie Stewart, led them in the many activities which belong to Juniors. ln the annual lr-li-Jinx a real horse trotted across the stage to help capture second prize for the Junior class act Spring Fever. ln the act the audience was whisked not only to the Wild West, but to South America and Hawaii. The traditional Junior Prom, in honor of the Seniors, was a huge success. The theme of decor- ation was the Mardi Cras, Decorative posters of costumed figures and immense masks, done in gold, green and purple, the colors of the Mardi Cras, made a gay and novel ball- room of the gym. It was a year of increased responsibilities and privileges to which the Class of '48 came back as Seniors. Looked up to and perhaps envied a bit, they, the star performers, took the lead in school activities. Seniors were the officers of school organizations such as Girls' and Boys' Clubs, editors for the Kodak and the Nesika, efficient committee chairmen and veteran athletes. Conducting a paper drive to raise money for the Public Address System of the new stadium was one of the big jobs supervised by Seniors. Their last year at high school rapidly became only memories, the first Cross- State football game in the new stadium, getting out of school for the State Tournament, of course, that last C a m p us Day, and finally, Commencement and Baccalaureate. Now the Class of '48 looks back at those years in high school with fondness, but it is not with regret. They are also looking ahead, and we know they will get ahead in the world, each one endeavoring to attain his goal in life. 2l
