Editor-In-Chief---Larry Dan White Business Managers--Virginia Hewitt Martha Irwin Production Managers--Karen Boswell Loleta Miller Sponsor ------- Miss Louise Mitchell to publish the '55 edition of THE SWAN. The editor-in-chief, chosen last year, and the other staff,members who were chosen this year assumed the responsibility for it, along with our sponsor, Miss Mitchell. Some of the many problems we solved were the choice of a cover, the kind of advertising to use and the choice of a theme. we thought that pictures with advertising would help, so we offered this suggestion and many of our advertisers used it. we sincerely thank all those who bought advertising space to help us produce this book. we decided that our theme should be an Indian one because of the Indian tradition of our school. Sr. Assistant Editor--Nadine Stark Jr. Assistant Editor--Kathryn Hime Art Editor ---------- Mary Ann White Snapshots ------------- Nadine Pease Sports ---------------- Bobby Gowing The senior class was very happy Dedication We, the Senior Braves, in appreciation, do dedicate this year's HSWQHM to YOU, our parents. Without your constant encouragement and many sacrifices, We could never have successfully become true Warriors ready to leave this Village and face life's many battles and great hunts.
