We started our second year of high school with thirty-three members. We were glad to welcome Barbara DeRhodes from Van Buren. We missed the familiar faces of Shirley Gl'Ol Q , Joan Smith, Beatrice Bach, and lva Spence, We were sorry to have Barbara DeRhodes and Bonnie Strouse leave us later in the year. Our first class meeting was held September 7th in our home room. We elected as officers: Bill Joseph, President: Marilyn Ewing, Vice President, Grace Newell, Secretary-Treasurer3 Joan Sharninghouse, Historian, and Richard Haddox, Reporter. We chose Mr. Spirk as our advisor. To enrich our treasury, we sold class symbols. We held a class party on October 16th at the home of Richard Haddox. We had lots of fun even if it did rain. On the 29th of January we held a skating party at the tile pond. Every- body had a lot of fun although many exhibited bumps and bruises the next day. Our last party as sophomores was held on May 6th, We cannot decide which of these we enjoyed the most. We are glad to have so many of our boys out for sports. Several of them made letters in football and in basketball. We are expecting quite a lot from them next year. This Page Compliments of the Hall Hardware Company. 29

We were led by our class officers: Margaret Laniier, presidentg Bonnie.Wedge, Vice presidentg Margaret Ewing, secretary-treasurer, Joanne Spilsnaugls, historian, and Jane Fisher, reporter, who worked faithfully throughout the year. Our first activity of the year was our presentation of the mystery-comedy Aunt Cathie's Cat. We thoroughly enjoyed the work that went into its production, and we were rewarded with much applause and appreciation by our audience. In addition to our play receipts, we supplemented our treasury by popping and selling corn at our basketball games. With the fine cooperation of the class we increased our funds to enable us to sponsor a delightful formal banquet for the graduating seniors. We chose as our theme t'Heaven. Our mothers cooked the delicious meal which was served for us by the sophomores. Our favors were miniature angels and our dinner background was delightful harp music. After the banquet dancing and other entertainment was held in the cafeteria. Miss Harshman was our class sponsor throughout the year and we greatly appreciated her guidance. With happy memories of this year, we turn to thoughts of our last and most outstanding year as dignified seniors. This Page Compliments of Banner Furniture, Findlay. 28
