CLASS HISTORY In September, 1947, tifty-four green freshmen tim- idly entered the doors of Lovelancl High School. Our advisers were Mrs. Dearwester and Mr. Ram- sey. After becoming acquainted with our class- mates, we elected Calvin Morris, President; Kenneth Conover, Vice-President; Lois Applegate, Secre- tary; George Wolbers, Treasurer; and Mary Price, Student Council Representative. During the initia- tion, Waunda Martin and Fred Burnett were chosen as Mr. and Mrs. Freshmen. Our main source of in- come was from dues and tax stamps. Then in 1948, as sophomores, we advanced nearer the top of the ladder. Our officers were Kenneth Conover, President; Douglas Howell, Vice-Presi- dent; Lois Applegate, Secretary; Phyllis Stein, Treasurer,- and Ronald Seward, Student Council Representative; and our advisors were Mrs. Gentry and Miss Maddux who capably led us through the year. We sophomores were known for our pencil sales. Our junior year began with only thirty-five mem- bers in our class. We immediately elected our officers: James Aylward, President; Fred Burnett, Vice-President; Mary Pummill, Secretary; Wanda Bohnekamp, Treasurer; and Ronald Seward, Stue dent Council Representative. During the year the juniors sold candy, soft drinks, class pins, emblems, paper, tee shirts, and scarves. In February the iuniors gave the traditional Sweete hearts' Ball, which proved successful. In March we enioyed participating in the Dixie Belle Minstrel. At last the long awaited time arrived! Preparations for the iunior-senior prom, Gardens of Memories, were started, and everyone helped to plan it. The eFForts of the class and our advisor, Mrs. Gentry, helped to make the prom one of the best ever given at our school. When twenty-eight members who were left began the senior year, we found that our high school was under construction and a new wing was being added. Everything was unsettled, but gradually everyone became accustomed to the noise and con- fusion. Our oFficers this year were James Aylward, President; Calvin Morris, Vice-President; Carolynn Bradley, Secretary; Wanda Bohnekamp, Treasur- er; and Frank Powell, Student Council Representa- tive. A new club, the Senior Knickerbocker Society, was now open to us, and members of our class joined this organization. Under Mr. Ogg, our advisor, we gave the Christ- mas dance and published this annual, our maior projects for the year. We who are left have reached the top of the lad- der and are ready to enter other fields. We sin- cerely hope that our community and our friends will be proud of us as we progress in our chosen work. 20
