THE Dele oie OFFICERS Martin Donahoe.............President ECO yee ke Ln 1 ee Vice-President Betty Garnham..............Secretary Edward Louis............... Treasurer During our first year in high school we trusted our executive responsibilities to President Jack Nortz, Vice-President Larry Marshall, Secretary Nancy Back and Treasurer Bill Easton. We chose Mrs. Hazel Porter and Mr. Walter Keen to guide us. In the spring we gave a dance for the juniors (free of charge of course, bless our generous little hearts). When we weren’t busy with activities, we were taking up our time by bowing to the overbearing seniors or ducking their reprimanding blows. We disrupted tradition and had our Sophomore Sweetheart Ball in May instead of in February. We came up with the original idea of having a baked ham supper, which was very profitable. We again elected Jack Nortz as president because of his fine leadership during our Freshman year. To assist him we re-elected our vice-president and secretary and chose Bev- erly Duflo to keep our finances straight. The whole class be- came better acquainted with each other and with the rest of the high school but we still didn’t get too familiar with the awe inspiring seniors (except, of course, for those certain members of our class who were going with seniors). The de- merit system was established and we got more than our share of them. Of course, some said we deserved them and well, ADVISORS Mrs. Kenneth E. Ford Mrs. Hazel M. Porter Walter S. Keen Kenneth E. Ford maybe we did. Just to show that we were quite uninhibited, some of our boys bleached their hair blond and then dyed it green. The year closed serenely and we felt that we had ac- complished quite a bit. We entered our junior year with an impatient feeling of wanting to get on to our senior year, but ending it with the feeling of wanting to start it over because we began to realize that we had only one more year of high school and we were beginning to kind of like it here. We elected Roy Kaufmann as chief executive and Gail Bush as his assistant. Betty Garn- ham was elected secretary and Ed Louis was elected treasurer. We added Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Ford to our staff of advisors. In the spring we presented the play “The Perfect Idiot,”’ directed by Miss Genevieve Smithling. During Easter vaca- tion we had the traditional Junior Prom. Our Senior year opened with a feeling of bustling activity and continued that way to the very end. We presented the play, “Belles on Their Toes,” directed by Miss Smithling. Our Christmas Formal, on the Monday after Christmas, went over great. We presented a stupendous musical, instead of Class Night. Thus ended our high school career.
