We VALEDICTORIAN If you see a boy with glasses, a brown sweater, and a pile of books large enough for a wagon, it is the valedictorian for l95O, Dan Dewey. Dan received excellent grades throughout his four years, and won the highest honor with a perfect 3. average. Outstanding in school activities, Dan was class president during his Freshman year, but reach his peak this year. He was a member of the Senior Play cast, Physics Club president, Band Captain, and last, but not leost, the Annual Editor. He has been especially prominent in music, occupying first chair three years, and being Band Captain two years. Following in his father's footsteps, Dan plans to attend Albion College with plans of becoming a teacher. SALUTATORIAN If you see a serious, well dressed girl leaving Ludington High School with some books under her arm that looked like they were going to be studied, that would be Alda Tobey, salutatorian for l95O. Aldo has received excellent grades throughout her high school career, and won this honor on a scholastic average of 2.89. Since Aldo has spent a good deal of her spare time in working, being a bookkeeper at Penny's this last year, she has - not had much time for extra-curricular activities. She was, however, secretary of her class in her Junior yeor, and aided considerably in the many projects. MAYOR Page 12 The tall, athletic looking fellow you see hurrying through the halls of L.H.S. is our handsome mayor, Bill Pioszak. Bill won this high honor in the school elections last year ofa very close race. As head of the S.T.C.C., Bill brought several progressive changes into our school life. Bill is an outstanding athlete, winning letters in all the major sports, football, basketball, and track. He also was voted the honor of Most Valuable Player on the gridiron team this year. Besides being outstanding in sports and school life, Bill was voted Most Popular Boy in the Senior Elections which shows the esteem with which he is regarded. Lots of luck, Your Honor!

SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS For leadership down the last mile of their final year at L.H.S., the seniors chose two boys and two girls. This equal repre- sentation was further car- ried out in school activities where the boys dominated athletics and leadership, the girls, music, organiza- tions, and scholastic abil- ity. The two groups worked together to great advan- tage throughout the year in many outstanding suc- cesses. .mum 52 TOM PAUL President Vice-President This year the seniors undertook the job of promoting a winter formal, the Sparkle Spin, held during the Christmas holidays. To no one's surprise the dance was an out- standing success. A sophomore in the senior play was a new twist too, brought about by the serious illness of a cast member. EMIL HOCH Although making important decisions on anouncements, name cards, and being fitted for caps and gowns, most of the seniors found time to enter in on the exclusive senior activities, the play and the yearbook. But don't get the idea that this year's seniors were a group of social-minded parasites living off past academic records. Indeed the seniors led all other groups in representation on the honor roll and were foremost in problems needing scholastic skill. The worthy few who qualified for the highest scholastic group, the four year honor roll, are: Dan Dewey, Alda Tobey, Robert Nankee, Donald Swanson, Eloise Anderson, Jane Anderson, Marilyn Brown, and Pat Shaw. To solve the problem of the class motto, the seniors selected We build the ladder by which we rise. The class flower is the scabiosus, and class colors are gray and crimson. 'Q' me JANE ANDERSON E'-I As graduation day draws ever nearer, the members 113-Q of the class of 5O are un- able to refrain from remi- niscing over their four years in high school, and refreshing their memories of events, teachers, and fellow students. These memories are of varied subjects, but all hearts are sorrowful at saying good- by. ARVONA MANCHESTER Secretq ry Treasurer Page 13
