Senior Class History When we became official members of Hermiston High School in Sep- tember of 1947 it seemed that this year, when we would be the high and mighty seniors would never come. As freshmen, the sophomores gave us our initiation which was fol- lowed by a Welcome Party in the evening. Immediately afterwards we started taking part in school activities. Our freshmen class officers were: President ........... ................ ....... C a ry ElW00d Vice President .............. ...... B ob Burnside Secretary ......... ..... P earl Miller Treasurer ........................................ David Knerr Sgt. at Arms .................................. Robert Keys Class representative was John Muelger and Miss Bannon was our ad- visor. As sophomores our biggest delight was giving the Freshies their initiation. We entered all sports and supported Armida McCrosky for Carnival Queen. Class officers vs ere: President ............. ....... M arvin Lemmon Vice President ........ ....... C harles Brooks Secretary ................................ Joanne Garrison Treasurer .......... ...,........................,.. P earl Miller Our class representatives were Virginia Alexander and Cary Elwood and -our class advisor was Mr. Walter Tanner. When we were juniors, we were very active throughout the year. We tried even harder to get our candidate, Phyllis Plourd, elected Carnival Queen, but were defeated. We honored the seniors with the annual J unior-Senior Prom on April 14, 1950. We chose as the theme of this dance, Meet Me Tonight in Dreamland . I The junior class play, He Couldn't Marry Five , directed by Miss Orpha Weisbeck, was presented on March 10, 1950. Officers that year were: President .................................... Jack Lobaugh Vice President ....... ....... D on Shockman Secretary .................................... Phyllis Plourd Treasurer .......................................... Pearl Miller Representatives to Student Council were Earlene Wardwell and Cary Elwood, and advisors were Miss Orpha Weisbeck and Mr. Ed Putnam. Now we are seniors, able to look back and see our many accomplish- ments. It doesn't seem that we are soon to leave these halls after spend- ing four happy years here. This year we sponsored a Thanksgiving dance. The theme for this semi-formal was Harbor Lights . On March 16 we presented the three- act comedy, We Shook the Family Tree . Pearl Miller was Carnival Queen candidate. Officers were: President ............. ,,.....,,,.,..,. D on Huff Vice- President ....,. ...... E arlene Wardwell Secretary ......... ......................
