Miss Taylor P. Jennett J. Crouch O. Hammond Mr. Willaims CLASS OF ’55 The Junior Class of 1954 is proud of its many accomplishments and the active part its members have taken in school organizations and affairs. At our first class meeting we elected Phyllis Jennett as president, Jim Crouch as vice president, and Ozzie Hammond as secretary-treasurer. Miss Taylor and Mr. Williams were chosen as our class sponsors. After the magazine sales, Jay Mitchell's losing team gave a party for the winners, Phil Campbell's team. Lela Matthews was chosen as our attendant for the Homecoming, and our float won first prize in the parade. Norma Brewington and Phil Campbell were elected as our candidates for king and queen of the Valentine Dance. A new kind of dance, the Ball and Chain Dance was held, and Jim Arnholt was chosen for the jury. The Honor Society elected four of our members to their group, Jay Mitch- ell, Barbara Nelson, Mary Boardman, and Phyllis Jennett. Our representatives on the Student Council were Letha Matthews, Mary Boardman, L.ela Matthews, Phil Campbell, Jay Mitchell, and Jim Arnholt. Phyllis Jennett was the treasurer. We worked very hard on the prom to make it successful. Music was fur- nished by Johnny Rinaldo and his orchestra. The theme, the Mardi gras, was very well carried out. We hope our next year will be just as successful and as much fun as this year has been. 19
