 Propltecy Sitting relaxed, I am watching the clouds go speeding past. Now it is 1980. While thinking about the class of 1957, 1 fell asleep to the gentle lulling roar of car engines.

Besides the usual hayrack party we presented the junior class play, “The Baby Sitter.” In May we were hosts for the Junior-Senior Banquet. Suzanne Terry left us at the beginning of the year and later on Bonnie Niles dropped out of school to become Mrs. Gary Kuchar. We had the pleasure of escorting the senior class to their places to receive their diplomas. I he final year, was now upon us. Mr. Ander- son became our sponsor and Bob Oldand was elected president. Our play, “'The Ghost Parade”, was successfully presented on March 29th. In April we took off on our “Sneak Bay” which was a welcome change for everyone. On May 3, we were royally treated to a banquet by the juniors. Commencement suddenly caught up with us on May 14. As we came to the end of our high school days our only wish was that the future years would be as successful as the last four.
