We began our most memorable year of education to date when the doors of Leaf River High were reopened once again on August 31 to admit the ''Class of '43. Several days later we elected the following officers: President—.....—........Keith Gallup Vice Pres.---------------------Roger McCoy Sec. Treas.......Virgie Cheek Student Council Rep.-Helen Schelling Marguerite Myers Our only social gathering was a most successful wiener roast at Krape Parle, Freeport on Sept. 26. On Friday, Nov. 13, our play cast defied all superstition by presenting Everything Happens To Us which turned out to be one of the best plsys staged here in recent years. The beaming faces of our thirty-two members were photographed on Nov. 9, and they all turned out ex- ceptionally well. On Feb. 5, we selected as our motto----- Today We Launch, Where Shall We Anchor . -colors------blue and silver, and flower-----pink carnation. Royal blue caps and gowns were also decided upon. Everyone of us is looking forward, perhaps re- gretfully, to Commencement Night when we shall be given the honorary certificate awarded every High School Graduate.
