GLASS HISTORY We started our high school year of 1952 as a centralized district and in November we held our first joint class meeting. Officers elected were: President, Ceylon Brabaw; Vice-President, Gary Frisco; Secretary, Helen Watson; and Treasurer, Ricky Lavine. Class advisors were Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Cline. Our activities for this year were very few. Profits from three food sales and several vie dances made a start in our treasury. As Sophomores our school year seemed to look brighter. Again we held joint class meetings and Howard Claflin was elected President; Patsy Harrington, Vice-President; Helen Watson, Secretary; and Donnie Fenlong, Treasurer. Mrs. Kentfield was our advisor and our Student Council representatives were Sam McCombs and Richard Griffith. Our Junior year we were thankful to be all in one building as a group. This year Sam McCombs was elected President; Donnie Fenlong, Vice-President; Loean Barr, Secretary; and Mary Seymour, Treasurer. Our Student Council representatives were Richard Griffith and Helen Watson. The big event this year was the thrill of ordering our Senior rings. As in other years, we held food sales and vie dances. In May we held our Junior Prom which was the highlight of our social season. We worked hard because we knew our Senior trip was awaiting us In 1956. In October of 1955» we held our first meeting as proud Seniors. Sam McCombs was elected President; Deuard VanOrnum, Vice-President; Loean Barr, Secretary; and Mary Seymour, Treasurer. Pat Conant was President of the Student Council and our representatives were Phyllis Foley and Melbern Aldous. Mr. Cline was our advisor. In December we presented a three-act comedy, CAMPUS QUARANTINE. We will never forget the fun and excitement of staging it and of appearing before an audience. Melbern Aldous was appointed as Editor of the yearbook and many of us worked on the DEMON and the school newspaper. Of course, the big event was our Senior trip to New York City and Washington on March 29th. We brought back many wonderful memories. Now that our trip is finished, we are getting ready for our graduation which we hope becomes a reality for all of us. As we are getting ready to leave our high school, we only hope that next year and in future years that the Seniors have as nice a year as we did in 1956.
