Class History We started out as “Green Freshies of Circle 51 in the fall of 1947, with 34 dudes, and Miss Kay Mailers as our foreman. Her assistants were . William Bailey, President; Melbourne Lazell, Vice-President; Gary Hughes, Secretary; Nancy Bliss, Treasurer; Norma Jean Stormer and Phyllis Riley, Pep Committee representatives; Dorwin Sullivan and Reva Bristow as student council representa¬ tives. The homecoming queen candidates were Reva Bristow and Marilyn Greene. Just like any other dudes we thought our locker combinations had been switch¬ ed and our rooms changed. We will never forget initiation with our green caps, lipstick, and our clothes on backwards. During the year we lost Donald Finch, Dale Kramer, but we gained Bill Sinkosky. The second year our officers were: President, Mary Jay; Vice-President, Dorwin Sullivan; Secretary, Reva Bristow; Treasurer, Juanita Ridgeway with Mr. Dale Shull taking over as our foreman. Student Council members were Marilyn Greene and Melbourne Lazell. Pep Committee members were Jane Doak and Bill Sinkosky. The Circle 51 lost Phil Arnold, Lloyd Creekmur, Marilyn Greene, Barbara Sullivan, Charlotte Williams, and Patty Snyder while we gained Leon Fornwalt, Mary Fredricks, and Peggy Luckenbill, We were well represent¬ ed in sports throughout the year and proud to have the cheerleaders, Jane Doak, Mary Jay, and Betty vVeikle from our class. We all made it to our Junior year except Richard Reed and Mary Helen Fredricks, We were busy with the magazine campaign, ordering class rings, the class play, and the Junior-Senior Banquet with Coach Boyd and Mrs. Coen as fore¬ man. The officers were: President, Jerry Pennypacker; Vice-President, Jack Walters; Secretary, Mary Jay; Treasurer, Betty Weikle; Student Council members, Peggy Luckenbill and David Foulke, Pep Committee members, Jane Doak and Melbourne Lazell. Mary Lou Dunham and Nancy Bliss were two of our cheerlead¬ ers. Now we are completing the “ROUND UP with Melbourne Lazell as President; David Foulke as Vice-President; Peggy Luckenbill as Secretary; Betty Weikle as Treasurer and Kathryn Richner as our foreman. We returned to “THE ROUND UP without Barbara Bliss, Mary Jay, and Jack W alters. The 51 ers were proud of our play “We Shook The Family Tree”, Reva Bristow as Homecoming Queen, Marian Vaughan as Xmas Capers Queen, all the boys on the basketball and football teams, with Jane Doak and Betty Weikle as our cheerleaders. At Homecoming our float won us a blue ribbon. Now with twenty-eight of us coming in the “ROUND UP” we have completed our journey across the hills and valleys of high school life. 25
