was our class sponsor. Our main business was determining how much money we would need for the Prom, and operating the candy booth. In October we selected our class rings which. In our estimation, were the best ever obtained by any class of G. H. S. At the end of October we had a theater party, after which we went to Joy Lee’s for refreshments. This was also the month In which we chose our Junior Class Play. The one chosen, was Let Me Grow Up In which Donna Barre had the leading role. Others In the cast were. Peg Carey, Pat Felver, Jinx Tucker, Shirley Walter, Gert Leak, Joy Lee Garner, Bud Aukerman, and Dick Rhine. Mrs. Low and Mr. Hoag directed. The Junior girl chosen by the student body as Business Manager of the Athletic Ass’n., for the year, was Joy Garner. Another highlight In our Junior year was the Junior and Senior Banquet. The auditorium was decorated to represent a garden on an Old Southern Plantation Judy Reynolds was chosen as the Belle of the Ball . The latter part of the evening was spent in dancing to the music of Don Amsden and his orchestra. The Prom ended our social activities and the rest of the year was devoted to studies. We started our senior year with an addition of four members to our class: Wesley Brewer, Dean Shoemaker, Ted Bittner, and Mary Young, we soon lost Mary. After the excltment of the first week was over and things began to settle down to the same routine we elected our class officers: Pres., Peg Carey; Vice Pres. Richard Rhine; Sec. and Treas., Shirley Walter. Class sponsor for the year Is Mrs. Low . In October we motored to Tiffin where we had our pictures taken at Boles-Dandurand Studies. Our class was noted for always Jumping at any suggestions offered. When It was suggested that we might raise enough money to take a trip, we were imme- diately sold on the Idea. Since the Prom of '49 had lowered our bank account, we had about 500 to earn before May 1. In our effort to raise money we have held square dances, bake sales, a card party, a bazaar and have sold greeting cards and other small items. We have held no class parties this year because of our financial difficulties. The play we have chosen this year Is Out of this World . The cast Includes: Donna Barre, Peg Carey, Jinx Tucker, Mary Bowen, Shirley Walter, Gert Leak, Joy Garner, Bud Aukerman, Ted Bittner, Dean Shoemaker, Dick Hartley, and Dick Rhine. Mrs. Low and Pat Felver are directing. Our High School career Is swiftly coming to an end. Commencement will bring to us mingled feelings--a feeling of triumph that we have actually arrived and a feeling of regret that we must soon pass on. —Joy Lee Garner This page sponsored by F. A.
