MARY ANN KAVAN . . . OOKING BACK About fifteen students attended playschool for two weeks in the spring of 1952 in preparation for first grade. This was the beginning of twelve years of work. In 1952, under the guidance of their teacher, Miss Margaret Rood, these students began the long climb of continuing edu- cation: Gay Gustafson, Ruth Svoboda, Garwood Vavak, Diana Stoakes, and Bill Nygren. Jack Flagle joined the class in the second grade. Bill Nygren withdrew from the class the same year. Gunther Lipsys joined the class in the third grade, and Judy House came in the fifth grade. Deanne Carlson trans- ferred from country school in the seventh grade and Wayne Petersen came in the eighth grade. As the class of ”64 entered Mead High School in the fall of 60 , we looked through the window and saw stretched before us four long years of hard work before our ultimate goal, graduation, could be obtained. Merlin Fick, Art Lamprecht, Terry Radenslaben, Joyce Carlson, Ronnie Sanders, Melvin Vance, and Bill Nygren joined the class. Betty Peterson also joined the class later in our freshman year. To guide our classes efforts throughout our first year, Gay Gustafson, Deanne u WILLIAM C. NYGREN . . .

Entering our Sophomore year, Melvin Vance was elected as president, and Merlin Fick, Joyce Carlson, Bill Nygren, and Terry Radenslaben as other officers. Deanne Carlson and Garwood Vavak represented our class on the student council. Bob Jones joined our class this year. As juniors we found ourselves one year closer to graduation. We began to build up our treasury for the Junior-Senior prom and banquet. Bill Nygren, Ruth Svoboda, Merlin Fick, and Joyce Carlson were elected as class officers. Deanne Carlson and Mel- vin Vance were our student council members. Our Junior Class Play, The Dancing Ghost was a big success and a lot of fun to put on. Bill Nygren, Judy House, and Joyce Carlson received dramatic awards for their outstanding performance. The awards banquet was held and the outstand- ing event for our class was the selection of FFA sweetheart. Candidates were junior girls, and Ruth Svoboda received the honor. To highlight the last month of school, our first prom was held. The Jun- ior Class presented the theme Stairway to the Stars in honor of the graduating Seniors. Gunther Lipsys and Dianna Stoakes were not with us this year. TERRY C. RADENSLABEN . . . RONALD LEE SANDERS . . . 15
