K M MANHIGAN Q 5 Janualy Class Small but mighty would be a fitting and true description of the January graduating class. At the time we entered the new Senior High building, the class roll held the names of one hundred and ninety-four members. But in the course of our remaining three years, one hundred and four of these members left our ranks. Ours was the first sophomore class in the new building under the six-three-three system of housing. This gave us the right start, and now class members began to appear in various activi- ties, especially music and athletics. Dramatics, too, took its quota from this class. Strangely enough, this entrance into outside activities did not seem to affect the scholastic standing of the class. Its representation in the honor column still rivalled that of the senior class of that time, in spite of the fact that a senior class is usually somewhat a picked group, due to the dropping out of members during earli- er years. While in its junior year, our class drew to- gether somewhat. More members were drawn into activities, too. But the trend toward unify- ing became stronger at the beginning of our senior year, though it was halted temporarily at the half-way mark by the loss of about thirty members, many of whom chose to stay over una til june of this year. At the head of our class was Don Sharp, well known and popular basketball player, who ful- filled his position of president as well as he played basketball. For the office of vice-president the class elect- ed Dick Loesch. Dick was a former president of the Social Science Service Club, very popular and greatly admired. His friends and activities centered about the Hypo. The class secretary needs no introduction to the students of the Senior High for she is Gen- evieve Howell, popular pianist and the author of both music and words of our class song. Ruth McConnell, in the position of treasurer, had charge of the class funds, and the manner in which she dispersed them is very creditable. To Miss Mary Bloor, our faculty advisor, is due much of the credit for the success of our senior activities. Miss Bloor was advisor of this class for two years, and now holds that of- fice in one of the under classes. All in all the January seniors had much to be thankful for since their high school life was not only pleasurable but profitable. Although many were our pleasures, with these pleasures was mixed some sorrow, for in the last few days of our school life we lost one of our members. 19507 it 4 l24l
