We numbered 100. 45 boys and 35 girls. Bob Wilson was elected as our first class president, Paul Kinser was chosen vice-president and Norma Brown our secretary-treasurer. What fun we had that year. Everything so different from grade school. As sophomores we chose Ken Collins as our president, Jim Merritt, vice- president, Don Pinnick as our secretary and Norma Brown was again our treasurer. Remember what fun we had on our hayride - - rolling along eating and singing merrily? Ah - - - next came our role as upperclassmen. Now “dignified” Juniors we began making plans for the Junior-Senior Prom. Our theme “Stairway to the Stars” was cleverly and successfully carried out. Ken Collins was again elected president with Bob Wilson as vice-president and Dorcas Wintersteen elected to serve as secretary-treasurer. Now at last we are called the “sophisticated” Seniors and can look down on the underclassmen. Our capable Ken Collins is still our president for th« third year with “Skip” Biedenkopf as vice-president and Janice Healey, secretary- treasurer. Although our class boasted 100 members as freshmen, now that we are ready to graduate, we find that 60, (39 girls and 21 boys) have remained together and will receive diplomas. It was well worth the effort, and although it hasn’t always been easy, it has been fun. Many memories will remain with us, picnics, tackyday, dignity day and our senior advisors, Miss Morey and Mr. Allen, who went out of their way to help us in every way--------Remember? 14
