GIgAA tJfiltosuf. Our Junior Prom, which was given April 22, was built around the theme, Walt Disney Fantasy. The General Chair man was Harry Chick, and our advisor was Mr. Branner. The success of our prom was due, largely to Mr. Branner s help- ful assistance. Class officers were-Pres, Charles Lindgren; Vice Pres, Rex Taylor; Sec. Don Stribling; Trees., James Larsen; Stu- dent Council Representative, Betty Brown, and the advisor was Mr. Branner. We have finally reached our goal. At long last, we are seniors. At the beginning of our senior year we num- bered forty-four. Senior class officers were-Pres., Rex Taylor; Vice Pres.,Orville Anderson; Sec., Margery Meyers; Treasurer, Janet Brotten; Student Council Representative, Bob Byers and the advisor was Mrs. Lundeen. The first event of our very eventful year was the apt- itude tests, given to us by Mr. Baldwin. Next came that eagerly-awaited projecfc-the Senior Play. A committee of seniors working with Mrs. Godfrey chose a play called Janu ary Thaw. The play was produced November 17th and 18th. At the coronation dance for the king and queen of foot ball, Wayne Rodland was crowned king and Janet Brotten, queen. The seniors were guests of Snohomish High School to see the stage production of William Shakespeare’s Taming of the Shrew. With the ever present need for funds to support the annual, Connie Johnson and Mary Brodie conceived the idea of having a carnival, or as it was later named, the Senior Skylark. This was put on with enthusiasm by the class and was a great success. Over 250 people attended on the very stormy night of March 17 and $187.00 was realized for the senior treasury. The Skylark was made up of Bingo Games, Trip Around the World and a Kissing Booth. Hot dogs, cof- fee, home made candy and pop were sold. On March 28, we were guests of the Everett Junior College for a college conference. April 5, the seniors put on an assembly for the stu- dent body, presenting a play entitled Shock of His Life. Our last week in school was a thrilling one with the Senior Banquet, Senior Picnic, Baccalaureate and on Thurs- day, June 1st, Commencement, so long awaited.
