H1-l-ln, 'I947 THE PACEMAKER HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1947 Well, here we are at The end of the line, graduating ready to go out into the big wide world and make-well, Try -a living for ourselves. It Took a long Time To get here, but it was worth iT . . . or was it? lt's hard for us to remember as far back as our freshman year when we had four long years of school ahead of us. We were amateurs at choosing officers but did pretty well with Betty Waterman as president, Dick Galloway, vice-president, Dorothy Saxton, secretary, and Josie Gagliano, treasurer. Mrs. Brunke, our class advisor, had a time keeping us quiet, especially noon hours. One party we'll never forget that year was our Hallowe'en party aT The County Home - neither will BetTy's folks. if you don't believe The cider was hard, just ask Jack Carlson. A lot of us had known The fundamentals of Post Office but we really learned to play that night. Too bad Pauline had To miss The party just because she didn't ioin us until January. Then came our sophomore year Through which Mrs. Barber guided us. We had swell Times that year, especially a couple of rugged hay-rides. Leland iBouncei Crandall left us for The Air Corps, and Carol Miller decided she'd rather go to Chautauqua School. That year for class officers we had Ray Munson, president, Betty Waterman, vice- presidentg Shirley Jacobson, secretary, and Bill Hansen, Treasurer. Marilyn Carpenter and Shirley May ioined us This year but I guess we were too much for Shirley because she had To leave The next. Marilyn stayed with us to be one ot The Class of '47. We started our junior year with Mr. Steward as advisor, poor man, and Ellen Miller, president, Newell Near, vice-president, Louise Harrington, secretary, and Bill Hansen, Treasurer, as our officers to guide us Through. Our first big activity ot The year was The Sadie Hawkins Day Dance, which we spent much Time preparing but had lots of fun. Vtle didn't raise very much money but the floor show was a wow! , Doc Near left us for The Army early in The year. June Paddock and Della Foster left us, too, preferring a wedding ring to a class ring. Our next big Task was decorating The gym for The seniors of '46 Class Night. A lot of Time was spent on iT, especially looking for The flowers - iust ask Jean or Ray. In June came The Junior Prom which was The first held in years. Everyone doomed its success from The start but as usual we came Through. Josie Gagliano was chosen as our delegate to Girls' State during The summer. We're all sorry she didn't join us again in The fall. Our loss was Jamestown's gain. And last, but certainly not least, came our senior year. Again we had Mr. Steward by unanimous request. ' By this time we were - or thought we were - experts at choosing officers, who are Bruce Renner, president, Jean Chamberlain, vice-president, Louise Harrington, secretary, and Shirley Jacobson, treasurer. This year a Student Council was formed, taking two students each from seventh through twelfth grades. Betty Waterman and Dick Galloway were our contribution. Two welcome additions to our class This year were Betty Evans and Helen Beck, whose laugh competes with Betty Waterman's. Geraldine was the only senior to compete in the oratorical contest at Mayville. She received second place here and went on to Jamestown to compete, where she received first place in her, class. From the first of the year we Talked, planned and worked toward going to Wash- ington. Our first attempt toward earning money was our magazine campaign by which we earned 524425. Bruce and Jean sure had fun keeping track of all the money and l don'T believe so much had ever passed through Shirley's hands before.
