Collecting class dues was a successful major project that fall. The Class of 1951 had a one hundred per cent col- lection of dues. A comedy, We Shook the Family Tree, was chosen for our Junior Class play. Under the direction of Miss Myrtle Paetznick, the cast presented this hilar- ious production in a superb manner. Two outstanding members of the Class of ' SI were chosen to attend Boys State and Girls State last summer. They were Charles W. Anderson and Mary Michos, both active in class affairs. Since there were so many ardent de- baters in our class, We Juniors anxiously awaited the Charles E. Hall Debate. Even though we lost, our team of Cal- vin Torrance, Priscilla Burrows and John Valone presented many logical points. The greatest event of our junior year was the Junior-Senior Reception which was in the form of a carnival. Early in the fall of 1950, we, the next Seniors, ordered our class rings and pins, most of which arrived in January. We elected another capable slate of officers with James Marcus as class presi- dent. ...aw-V President ,,...i,,.,,,,. ........

The Senior Class play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, was staged on April 7. The cast, directed by Miss Paetznick, put on an excellent perform- ance. ' As the Red and Green goes to press, we are eagerly awaiting the Charles E. Hall Debate. After a year's experience, our senior team is at its peak. We are also looking forward to the last lap of our high school careers. There are still many important and exciting activities, such as the Junior-Senior Re- ception, Senior Prom, Class Night, Commencement and finally the Alumni Reunion, which we shall attend for the Hrst time. We Seniors owe a great deal of our success to Miss Rogers, whose skillful guidance and wise counsel have been of immeasurable value to all of us. We want to express our appreciation to her and wish her every success in future years. -Thomas Swanson, Historian 'Q :K ' xx .6-f,g,iQil71Pt. Q, X -- ' 'iviilflliitf' . 'fi . '--f , V . .
