14 REM ATI TE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1939, we, the graduate of 1943, entered the high school With the aid of our sponsor, Miss Mildred Webster, we elected our officers: Bob Gunderson, president; Margaret Mukavlts, vice-president; Margaret Russell, secretary; and John ayan, treasurer. A suceessful asaambly program, composed of several skits and musical numbers by members of the class, was presented. The completion of our freshman year saw large group of promising students well on their way to athletic and scholastic honors. We elected the following officers in our sophomore year: Donald Swanson, president; Arthur McKay, vice-president; Erwin Johnson, secretary; and Grace Gribble, treasurer. Later in the year, when Arthur McKay moved away, Margaret Russell was elected vice-president. Under these officers, and with the aid of our class sponsor. Miss Margaret Jones, we held a successful assembly and a class party. Our junior year was an eventful one. Our officers for the year were James Herbenar, president; Margaret Mukavitz, tice-president; Gloria Swanson, secretary; Jean Strand, treasurer. Our sponsor was Miss Janet Goudie. The highlight of our very successful class assembly was a humorous skit entitled The Lighthouse Keeper s Daughter. The proa, carried out in a atin American setting, was a great success. In our senior year the following officers were elected: Tom Gardner, president; Edward Oliver, vice-president; and Madeline Miller, secretary-treasurer. Miss Jennie Johnson was our sponsor. The war called for an increased effort on the part of the seniors, and the class as a whole responded readily to these demands by enrolling in courses stressing various phases of the war effort. W© completed our senior year with the class play, June Mad, the class picnic, and the Commencement exercises. The motto of the class of 1943—a very fitting one in these times of emergency—is Courage is half the battle.
