Then came our all important Junior year. Mr. Elmore was our advisor this year, and with his help and advice we were able to tuck away quite a sum of money for our Senior year. This year some of us had the notion that we might be competition for Hollywood. We decided to show everyone by putting on a play, with Mr. Benjamin as our director. We also enter¬ tained the Seniors with a prom and banquet. Guy and Russell decided that they needed a va¬ cation, so they both took a trip to Florida, returning before the year was over. Ronna Crocker attended school off and on, but finally resigned from her school work. The only new addition to our class this year was Virginia Beebe, who left at the end of the year. At last the long awaited year has arrived. We are at long last, Seniors. Our advisors for this year are Mrs. Hilliard and Mr. Tannenbaum. The graduating class of 1950, after many additions and subtractions, now consists of the following: Clair Belland, Francis Bell, Louise Book, Nick Carson, Norman Crittenden, Jim Freer, David Frank, Stanley Haist, Russell Howes, Reggy Kissenger, Sylvia Knight, Chuck O ' Brien, Rodger Offet, Dick Perkins, Guy Rundio, Carolyn Wagner and Dick Wheaton. Ray Councell left us at the end of the first semester to join the Army. So we leave Galesburg High and become members of the Alumni. But as we do so, we shall not forget the past, the games, dances, plays and most of all the friendships we have made with our fellow students and teachers. As we proceed on through life there will always be a warm spot in our hearts full of fond memories of our past high school days at Galesburg. So, good-by and good-luck to all of you.
