CLASS HISTORY John Hawthorne President Levmoine Ha mum President Homer Smith V in'-President Paul Moon - Vice-President Alyce Rabold - Secretary Letha Swingle Secretary Jack Stone - 7 rea surer Kenneth Hauman - Treasurer Since we voted to order our rings this year, a ring committee was appointed. When Mercer High School resumed football, the Junior class sold hot dogs at the football games- In the meeting of October 24. we began to prepare for our class party. Wanting something special, we decided to call it “Duffy’s Tavern.” Little paper mugs were used as souvenirs. The party was held November 30 and was greatly enjoyed by everyone. As our first dramatic contribution. we presented Every Family Has One.” a comedy which was said to be one of the best plays ever given here. We then started planning for the Junior-Senior From. The theme was a Dutch garden with trimmings of Dutch shoes and tulips. The dance programs were small windmills. The dance was enjoyed by all who attended it. On September 4. we started our busiest school year. We held our first class meeting September 6. The officers elected were: Since our class party would be the first this year, committees were appointed for planning it-The name of the party was “Krazy Karnival.” As souvenirs we had dance programs in the shape of clowns. The dance floor was decorated in the style of a big tent.” There were several booths, where refreshments were sold. To carry out the carnival theme a gypsy fortune-teller was present. We felt this party was our most successful. As our dramatic venture for the Senior year we gave the play, Ever Since Eve.” As this school year draws to a close and graduation approaches, we begin to realize that we are ending four years of school work and activities. To some of us graduation means an end to school work and studying. To others, it is just a beginning. Whichever it is. we realize that Mercer High School has given us the foundation for our future work. HARRIET McCLAIN PHYLLIS CHADDERTON — 27 —
