SIMM CLASS msn In September, 19 3 we, the dignified seniors of today, began to play our role in the school life of the Luther L. Wright High School. Despite our trepidation, our admiration for the big upper classmen, and our bewilderment, we managed to collect ourselves well enough to elect the following officers: Warner Blyckert, president; Bill Kellett, vice-president; Dorothy Banda, secretary; Dolores Klug, treasurer. But we soon gained more assurance and under the able direction of our class sponsor, Kiss Geraldine Westaby, a group of the class put on several skits in choral reading. Many of the boys became active in sports, and our freshman basketball team came out triumphant in their games against the team from the Roosevelt School in Ironwood Township. In the fall of 19V we returned to our alma mater no longer meek freshies but more confident sophomores. Recollecting our own freshman year, we found amusement in watching the confused newcomers become acquainted with their new school life. This year with Miss Ruth Birge as our adviser, we elected Rodney Pertile as president, Mildred Van Halla as vice-president, Marilyn Koivisto, our secretary, and June Hjalmquist as treasurer to lead us. Unique this year was Rodney Pertile in that he received the honor of being the only sophomore boy to make the National Athletic Honor Society. Mary Trezlse won further honor for our class by placing first in the Upper Peninsula Declamatory Contest. After a break of three months' summer vacation we returned in September 19 5» as upper classmen on the ladder of high school education. This year was Indeed a memorable one in all respects. We elected the following as our officers: Curtiss Pollari, president; Joan Skud, vice-president; Joan Suprenant, secretary; Carol Antonino, treasurer. This year three of our class members, Dolores Mollard, Curtiss Pollari, and Marvin Rowe, contributed their able talents to the production of the operetta, H.M.S. Pinafore. On April 12, five juniors were inducted into the National Honor Society. In May, two other Juniors, Warren Olson and Michael Rondeau, attained membership in the National Athletic Honor Society. On May 10, under Miss Janet Goudie's direction, in a gay, old Mexican setting our class acted as host to the school graduates,and friends at our Junior Prom. The affair, which was indeed a success, was reigned over by Curtiss Pollari, class president, and Kathleen Ahonen. This year again, Mary Trezlse won honors at the regional forensics meeting with her original oration, He Is Our Equal. Last fall we finally gained the dignity that comes out of being seniors. Marvin Rowe, Milton Ehlert, Joan Skud, and Jo Ann Walton were elected to the positions of president, vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. This year Ray Curry Erickson received the distinction of being the only Ironwood football player to gain a place on the Michigan-Wisconsin all-conference first team. In December, under the leadership of our four class officers and our class adviser. Miss Jennie Johnson, the seniors sponsored a formal Christmas Ball in an attractive setting of scenes from The Night Before Christmas together with decorations of wreaths and lighted Christmas trees. During this evening, Christmas carols were sung by the group gathered about the organ, punch was served, and all in all it was a very pleasant holiday party. In May, the senior class play will be presented under the direction of Miss Bess Hayek. On Sunday evening, June 1, Baccalaureate services will be held in the gymnasium. During the last week of school we will have our class picnic. On June 6, after four marvelous years, we seniors, wearing blue cape and gowns will achieve our goal in high school—graduation.
