e eniord of 1951 had a wonderfully happy year packed with work and fun. September, of course, is best remembered for that long-awaited ar- rival of class rings. Naturally, they were the prettiest rings anyone had ever had whether they had a red or blue stone or were iust plain in style! Next, the name cards and memory books arrived. What fun it was to exchange cards and fill in the memory books. lt was quite a iob trying to decide iust which friends to put down as the ones most likely to succeed! Then the big question of whether to graduate in caps and gowns or suits and formals confronted us. Turning to the tried and true democratic way, we voted on the problem and caps and gowns won by a nice majority. White December with the gay parties soon rolled around. We Seniors held a semi-formal Christmas party in the gym, which was most attractively decorated for the occasion. Music was furnished by some members of our own school band. Smilin' Through, the Senior Play, was given in March and was rated one of the best ever. Trinity University's Skyline Room was the scene of the Junior-Senior Memory Lane Prom. This lovely courtesy extended the Seniors by the Juniors will always remain one of the graduates' nicest affairs to look back on. Rounding out the year was the annual Class Day Picnic, May 23, at Landa Park. lt was a beautiful day for an outing and every Senior had a simply super time. At last came the night we had all worked and waited for, for twelve long years- graduation. As we look back across our days at Burbank we are sure no one ever went to a nicer school, had a better time, or faced the future as well prepared as we, the graduates of 1951. fa Senior' sponsors, Mrs. Olidene McDer mand and Miss Marguerite Yaeger
