Mr. Charles Denken Night Watchman Gymnasium Mr. William Landrum Night Watchman Main Building The venerable shop building brings memories of noisy heater fans, cold floors, wind whistling around frames and doors, and assorted odors of paint, wood, oil, and ink. Mr. Harry Child Building Engineer With all their planning and grading, our teach- ers are still very faithful to sponsor and chaperon our extra activities.

CLASSES The school year that is about to close has been marked by many unusual, as well as successful, undertakings and programs by all four classes. Traditionally, the Senior Class has played a major role in the planning and production of many of these activities. Starting with the opening of school last September when they acted as Big Brothers and Sisters, so ably and patiently assisting entering Fresh- men by answering their many questions, they have con- sistently taken the lead and set the standards that have be- come the accepted pattern of school life of all worthy Prexies. The members of the Junior Class have, likewise, proven themselves to be an outstanding, as well as responsible, group. Trips are always a real test of the maturity of any class. The annual class trip of the Juniors was a resound- ing success and everyone had a marvelous time. As this class takes the place of our Seniors we are assured of big things from them in the year ahead. Working in close harmony with their sponsors, the Sophomore Class probably exhibited the most class spirit of all. Their Food Dance at Thanksgiving time was a high spot of their program. They not only derived much enjoyment from it; but also contributed much to making the season happier for many needy families in the com- munity. Challenged by the many frustrations and, seemingly, endless details involved in becoming acquainted with the program in a new-school setting, the Freshmen Class pre- sented a harried and bedraggled appearance as they struggled to make the adjustment last September to the more sophisticated environment of high school. As usual, the crisis passed and the annual miracle took place. Our Freshmen have survived the ordeal and have become full-fledged Prexies. They have carried out their class activities, under the guidance of their sponsors and of- ficers, in a very creditable fashion. To be sure, the four classes that make up our school do operate independently. However, we never lose sight of the fact that we, by playing our role and contributing our small part, are not only enriching our own lives; but also are carrying on the fine customs and traditions of our great school. 23
