Those green, wide- eyed kids soon became accustomed to the wide corridors, large study halls, pep assemblies, basketball games, and mixes. The highlight ot the year was the tirst high school Prom q at least tor those who were lucky enough to be asked by juniors or seniors. Summer vacation was welcomed with open arms, but we were all glad to be back with our triends to start our junior year. This was our trial year tor we were in charge ot arranging the Junior-Senior Prom. Selling stationery, calling cards, and memory books was our best plan tor raising money. We lookcd torward to the senior play, hoping it would be halt as good as the ones in previous years. SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President , , , . . ,.....,.........,...,..... ..... . .

On our second day at school we had a pep assembly to open the I948 football season. Our team came through to beat Point Pleasant 43-I3. This was followed by many victories, but the game we all looked torward to was the one with our dear rival East High. The Varsity l-l elected Miss Pony Express and her attendants to preside at that game. but rain was really the victor. Through mud and water the galloping Express trounced East I2-6, The co-captains crowned Miss Victory at the Annual Victory Ball at Radio Center on November IS. Following the football season, basketball burst upon the horizon. Our team was very successful, tor they beat East twice, Charleston once, and Princeton, the state champs, in regular season. Since secret societies were barred trom school, the school clubs got behind the students and gave a dance December 22 and the Tea Dansant on Christmas Day. Elections tor typical students, class otticers, beauty queens, and senior speakers kept us busy in class otticer throughout the year. Baseball and track held our interest when the weather got warmer, but soon we realized that our remaining days at t'l.l'l.S. were numbered. Q 21
