Many memories which are good and bad, will always mingle in our minds as we march out of school and into the world. As Seniors, we realize that life is a puzzle and that part of the puzzle is being formed. Through our activities, our work and fun, we have all gained a part in completion to our puzzle by going to school. We had many money making projects during the year. Some of them were: the play Rest Assured given on October the 15th and the 16th, the Talent Show, a penny supper and a skating party. On March 1, was the annual Junior and Senior trip. This year the Juniors took the Seniors to Fort Wayne to an Ice Hockey game. On February 9, the Seniors left for Indianapolis to visit the state house. While there we visited many interesting places, among them were: the Senate, the House of Representatives, the Supreme Court, the Governor's chambers and the museum. We had Class Day on May 13. The Baccalaureate was held in the gym on Sunday, May 15. Commencement was held in the gym on Tuesday, May 17. We started on our Senior trip on May 22 by train from Mentone. We visited Washington, D. C., New York City and Niagara Falls.
