Senior Glass Jiistory This brief history will help some remember their high school days and tell others a little about the activities of the Class of '48 during its four years in Laurel High School. September 5, 1944, was a big day for us we entered high school! In the second hectic week we held our first class meeting. The officers elected were Bonnie Barr, president; Sonny Wold, vice president; Jerry Early, secretary, and Marilyn Albertus, treasurer. Miss Kathryn Russell was our sponsor. Our king and queen in the Laurel Leaves contest were Raymond Robertus and Jackie Renner. We lost the contest to the seniors by one subscription. The Home Ec Club served hot chocolate and cookies to the freshmen after school one afternoon near the beginning of the school year. The freshman class had the highest enrollment, which was 66. Our sophomore class officers were Betty Lackman, president; Margery Lou Hartley, vice president; Howard Miller, secretary, and Joyce Ness, treasurer. Our sponsor was still Miss Russell. Jackie Schessler and Jim Wilcox were the sophomore contestants for king and queen. Our S.A.C. representative was Bonnie Barr. The next year we were upperclassmen. Our sponsor was now Mrs. Ruth Gee. The officers elected this year were Wayne Willis, president; Laura Mae Batt, vice president; Bonnie Barr, secretary, and Joyce Ness, treasurer. We were allowed two representatives to S.A.C., who were newcomers Phyllis Toombs and Betty Strand. We chose Gene Bice and Bonnie Barr for king and queen in the Laurel Leaves contest. Before Christmas we ordered our class rings which came in the early spring. On November 23, 1946, the S.A.C. gave a carnival. The juniors sold candy and pop and had a ring the duck booth. Our candidate for Carnival Queen was Bonnie Barr. During this year we took over the tradi- tional job of the junior class, selling concessions at football and basketball games. Our junior class play was the comedy, Best Foot Forward. It was presented under the direction of Miss Mildred Poznanovick and Miss Ilene Avery. On May 18 came the event we had been planning for weeks—the Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet. Wayne Willis was toastmaster, Laura Mae Batt gave the welcome, and Margaret Fink the response. The theme was In the Garden of Tomorrow. The theme was carried out in the menu, table centerpiece, favors, and gymnasium decorations. The Cast Loma Cowboys furnished the music for the Prom. We are now in our senior year. Our officers are Margery Lou Hartley, president; Janet Ness, vice president; Betty Strand, secretary, and Myrna Batt, treasurer. We now have Miss Minnie Ellen Paugh for our class sponsor. We are again entitled to two representatives on the S.A.C., who are Joyce Ness and Betty Strand. The Laurel Leaves king and queen were seniors, Robert Murphy and Myrna Batt. Again this year the S.A.C. gave a carnival. The seniors had a Housey-Housey table. Our candidate for Carnival Queen was Marion Wieber. In November, 1947, three seniors took the Pepsi-Cola Scholarship test. They were Bonnie Teeters, Jerry Early and Marilyn Albertus. On December 26, 1947, the seniors gave a Christmas Formal. It was a dance for alumni and students of Laurel High School. The class play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, was given in April, under the direction of Miss Avery. Co-editors of the Annual are Bonnie Barr and Joyce Ness. Miss Paugh is the adviser. We have busy weeks ahead of us, all of which will lead up to the graduation of the Class of '48 on May 27, 1948. PAGE SEVENTEEN
