Class of '58 Bids Farewell With All-Night Party. The senior all-night party, the last school activity for the class of '58, held lor some rejoicing and irolic: for others, moments oi quiet contemplation. Clockwise from upper left: Early in the evening Io Faris and Lee Mayfield, and Allan Rogers and partner set a lively tempo- perhaps a bit too lively a tempo for Madelyn Rudolph, George Millard. Merle Moden, and Icy Arnold, seen in the next picture. We may wonder what nature boy Bob Young is doing in this picture, but dancers Richard Karotlcin and Lonnie Smith don't seem to mind. As the night wore on, feet and spirit at last began to wear out. Then came the Ideals, Chuck Joyce, Ieff Rampy, and Ierry Squyres who gave new life to the party--enough new life, in fact, to encourage Archie Bratton, Ronnie Baker, Wales Reese, Sam Birkner, and others to take a last plunge in the pool. Center: For a senior Iimmy Ottman and his date Kay Coleman and for Mack Hickman and Emily Ford, the senior party was not likely the last fond farewell.
