Senior News The thirty members of the Senior Class have had problems all year. We had to plan ways to make enough money for a senior trip since we didn’t do very well our Junior year. On October 31, we added $170 by presenting our Senior Class play Here Comes Charlie”. A penny supper in November increased our balance by $125. During the next two months we debated how to make more money. We also had a problem about a class sponsor. We had Mr. Freeland at the beginning of the year, and when he became ill Miss McFarren finished directing our play. When we learned that Mr. Freeland would not be able to return to Mentone, Mr. Weiss offered his assistance and has done a fine job the rest of the year. On March 31, we presented a talent show in the gym- nasium. This is the first time a senior class has had a talent show. We made over $100 on this project. Then on April 16 and 17 we had a work day. Various merchants cooperated with us to make this a success. The last financial activity was a penny supper on May 1. Although not all members of the class could help, we still made a little profit. On April 20, the Juniors and Seniors went to Fort Wayne. We spent the day visiting factories and businesses to get a better idea of different jobs. In the evening the Juniors took us to the Hollywood Ice Revue at the Memorial Coliseum. We had Class Day on May 14 with Phil Carney as the Master of Ceremonies. The Baccalaureate was held in the new gym on Sunday, May 16. Commencement was held in the gym on Tuesday, May 18, with Judge Kennedy as the main speaker. Our class was the first to graduate in the new gym. We started our senior trip on May 23 by train from Men- tone. We visited Washington, D.C. and New York City. Compliments of Smith Bros. Garage
