Senior Glass For the benefit of those who know nothing about the Class of '47, we have composed the story of our four eventful years in Laurel High School. Our first year in high school, our class topped the list with the highest enrollment of 77. During the year the officers were Bill Speare, president; Gerry Schessler, vice-president; and Marilyn Ness, secretary-treasurer. The boy and girl chosen as Boy-and-Girl-of-the-Moment were freshmen. They were Bill Speare and Gerry Schessler. The freshmen also gave a dance on April 14, 1944, for freshman only. This was a dancing party to learn how to dance. During our sophomore year, our officers were Gerry Schessler, president; Dorothy Hilgret, secretary; and Margaret Fink, treasurer. The Laurel Leaves had a contest that year for subscriptions. Each class elected a class king and queen. The sophomore class king and queen were Floyd Koch and Carol Alverson. Our junior year was more eventful than either our freshman or sophomore years. We were then upperclassmen. That year we ordered our class rings, which we received in March and April, 1946. Our class officers were Doc Foley, president; Bervyl Kimberly, vice-president; Donna Freund, secretary; and Joel Roth, treasurer. That year our class king and queen in the Laurel Leaves contest were Evelyn Frickel and Bervyl Kimberly. Our S. A. C. representative was Margaret Fink. Also during our junior year we gave the Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet. The prom was held the 18th of May. Leo Foley was toastmaster, Joel Roth gave the Welcome, and Jack Mitchell the Response. The menu at the banquet was printed in French. The gymnasium was decorated in red and creme and the theme was Piracy. The Merry Makers of Lovell furnished the music for the prom. Our junior class play was Growing Pains. The two leading characters were Jack Galusha and Dorothy Hilgret. Miss Kathryn Russell was the director, and Miss Minnie Ellen Paugh the advisor. During the year the junior class sold concessions at the football and basketball games. Barbee Anderson and Donna Freund were in charge of the selling. Our senior year finally arrived and with it graduation. Our officers our last year were Margaret Fink, president; Joel Roth, vice-president; Donna Freund, secretary; and Barbee Anderson, treasurer. Our S. A. C. representatives were Doc Foley and Marilyn Ness. Our king and queen in the Laurel Leaves contest were Bill Roysdon and Margarette Wold. Bill Speare, Barbee Anderson and Joel Roth took tests for the Pepsi-Cola Scholarships in April, 1947. The S. A. C. gave a carnival, November 23, 1946, in which the seniors participated. They had a Housey-Housey table at the carnival. A Carnival Queen was also chosen. Each class nominated a candidate for queen and the student body voted for them. The girl chosen for Carnival Queen was Ada Dufresne, a senior. On December 28, 1946, the seniors gave a Christmas Formal. It was a dance for Alumni and seniors of Laurel High School. Invitations were sent out to the Alumni of the classes from '39 up through the class of '47. This year the seniors gave a class play on May 6 and 7, the name of which was The Night of January 16th. Miss Mildred Poznanovic was director and Miss Ilene Avery was technical director. The Class of '47 decided to put out an Annual this year. It is the second edition published since 1942. Barbee Anderson was elected editor and Miss Fredericka Renner was adviser. Miss Renner was also the senior class sponsor. PACE SEVENTEEN
