We all went home with the feeling that we had really been welcomed to G.L.H.S. Our membership at the close of our first year in High School was I44. Other social events of the year were the Christmas Party, a box social. and the traditional spring picnic at the park. In remembrance of the welcome given us as Freshmen, we as Sophomores gave a party for the Freshmen of that year. We also sponsored several dances. At this time we began to feel that we had a part in school affairs. and that we could stand on our own two feet. As a banquet was expected of the class of '45 fwho had been waiting three years to put it ond they set to work earning money for the elaborate affair by having a magazine sale. With much hard work, this high-light of the year went over with great success. The 11144 1..-time 19

Student Cabinet A very important part of the student system of government is the Cabinet, which consists of five seniors, four juniors, three sopho- mores and two freshmen elected from their respective classes. The Cabinet, with Mr. Sawdon as adviser, has had a successful and active year. The ofiicers for the year were: President, Jerry lVlcDaniels: Vice-President, Dick Carter: Secretary, Shirley Marzean: and Treasurer, Eileen Vander Steen. One of the worthwhile projects it sponsored was the sale of War Bonds and stamps. A contest for the sale of these stamps and bonds was held with Charlotte during the month of November, Although Charlotte came out in the lead. the competition increased our sales greatly. The Cabinet was very active in helping to organize the new island recreation center. They also helped the city council make the rules and regulations for the Teen Age Drop Inn, the recreation center. New rulings for our high school parties were set up by the Cabi- net, which received much recognition by outside authorities and dif- ferent schools. . lfirst row, lei! lo right-K. Dobson, S.

At the first of the school year. the students started their annual cam- paigning and election of officers. which led the class to elect the following: Norbert Vander Steen, President: Dorothy Baker, Vice-President: Kathyrn Toaz, Secretary: and l.ois Hodge. Treasurer. Marvin Keeny and Raymond McDaniels were elected to represent the Sophomores on the Student Cabinet. lt was later decided to drop the legislature and have a unicameral house. This permitted the Sophomores to have one more member in the Cabinet, and the choice of the class was Don Teman. ln the Fall the class sponsored the annual Freshman-Sophomore Party. at which the Freshmen were the guests of the Sophomores. The purpose of this annual get-together was to enable the students to get better acquainted. During the football season. they sponsored an after-the-game dance and another during the basketball season. Both had an excellent crowd. and also gave the class extra money for its treasury. This class of '46 has from its first year in high school been active and spirited, and will continue to be a leading class in its last two years. 20 The 1044 l.edye
