SENIOR EXECUTIVE BOARD-FIRST ROW, IefT To righi: Cooper, Turner, Roberis, Harris, Griffin, Koch, Mr. Anderson. SECOND ROW: EverTon, McGarvey, Ball, Lundy, Hufchens, Mr. Denny. a5'n.cluvaJwL 0 ' ,DUUL , Mm The Tear oT God is The beginning oT knowledge. Yes, This is my moTTo, and how many Times during my pasT school years This TacT has been proven. WheTher I realize iT or noT, my knowledge did noT begin unTil I learned To Tear God, and I, as The class OT '5I, have had a hard Time gaining This knowledge. I enTered GranTs Pass I-ligh School Tive shorT years ago. In I946 I was known as The Eager Beaver 7Th grade. This year liTTIe Bob Amsbary was my presi- denT. My presidenT The nexT year was Bill PruiTT. The EnThusiasTic Freshmen was my name The Tol- lowing year. I-Tal Faulkner, my presidenT, moved aT The end oT The TirsT semesTer, and Don Dickson, vice- presidenT, Took The gavel To carry ouT The plans and duTies oT presidenT. I'm sure you all remember The big mixer I had To geT acguainTed wiTh sTudenTs com- ing in Trom oTher schools, and my skaTing parTy. This was also The year ThaT Bob Amsbary was chosen Trom my class To Take The big posiTion oT Second Vice-Presi- denT oT The STudenT Body. As I enTered The upper division, Don Briggs ably Took The posiTion oT head man. This year was Topped by my Sophomore I-lop, April Showers, which was a greaT success in my eyes, and my biology Tield Trip when so many oT The sTudenTs came down wiTh poison oak. My iunior year saw Bob Amsbary again Take The Top posiTion oT presidenT, wiTh Don Jacobson, Nancy Leonard, Merldine GriTTin, and Maxine Dellinger as- sisTing him as class oTTicers. This was a big year: Junior Picnic, sTaTe baske-Tball TournamenT, and Junior Play, Peg o' My HearT, wiTh AniTa Shearburn as Peg and Miss Young as direcTor. The Junior Prom, Under- WaTer FanTasy, was a success: and someThing Thai musT noT be TorgoTTen is The TacT ThaT The iunior boys served as ushers and The girls carried The arches Through rain and mud Tor The seniors of '50To march Through. Now I'm a senior, and l've had a greaT senior year. The memories oT my Senior Ball, Magic in The Moon- lighT, senior plays, banqueT, skip clay, SweeThearT, Nancy Leonard, and FooTball Queen, June BarnharT, will never leave me. No greaTer presidenT could have led me in This senior year Than Dale I-larris. Giving him a helping hand were PaT Ford, vice-presidenT: Marlene Cooper, secreTaryp Merldine 6riTTin, Treasurer, and Mary Lundy, sTudenT council represenTaTive. This year my class has conTribuTed a senior proiecT, class yell, senior plays, and Top in PTA membership. No, l'm noT TorgeTTingI We had a Queen, Mrs. Louis, worThy oT all The praise ThaT could be given her, and Two Kings, Mr, Anderson and Mr. Denney. These were The paTienT and wonderTuI advisors who helped me Through This, my lasT year in GranTs Pass I-Iigh School. And Thank you, Mr. I-Iarrison, Tor direcT- ing my plays. You are all wonderful and I'II never TorgeT you. My Tlower is The rose, my colors, wine and silver, and my moTTo, The Tear oT God is The beginning oT knowledge. No maTTer how much knowledge I gain, sTill, ToremosT in my mind will be my Teachers, Triends, and classmaTes in GranTs Pass I-ligh. There comes a Time Tor all good Things To come To an end, and Tor me To walk inTo The TuTure, praying ThaT God will always be wiTh me and help me make The besT oT everyThing I do. On June IZ, wiTh Tear-Tilled eyes, I will walk down Those TradiTional long rows oT winding rose arches Io receive my diploma. I, as The Senior class, wanT To say To all my won- derful Triends--Good-bye, and Thanks Tor everyThing. I will never TorgeT you or dear old GranTs Pass High.
