Senior Class History The freshman class of 1946, under the direction of Mr. Browning is making a thorough study of radar. At the present time the freshies are completing an experiment in contacting the moon. Seen as the man in the moon is the class of ’46. In the first of the series of experiments con- tact is made with the first phase or quarter moon. The rulers of the quarter moon were: Richard Kraft, king; Paul Hayden, adviser to the king; Lois Foust, scribe; and Delores Thomas, purser. This phase was completed under the guiding light of Mr. George Boettner, Mrs. Leah Lester, and Mrs. Irene Collins. The class selected the yellow rose as their flower, and red and gray as their colors. Their motto was ‘Do not cele- brate a triumph before a victory. Now these green scientists observe the second phase, half moon. They find as advisers to the rulers, Mr. Max Michael and Miss Dorothy Ktioop. The rulers of the half moon were: Lois Foust, queen; Richard K aft, adviser to the queen; LaVerna Lennertz, scribe and purser. The mort important social affair was a skating party to raise money for gym window shades. After many discouraging attempts these protegees of Einstein suc- ceeded in contacting the third phase or the three-quarter moon. The able sponsors of this very successful phase were: Mrs. Leah ester and Mrs Dorothy Carlton, who worked with the current rulers; Bob Lauer kintr- •Jim Kraft, adviser to the king; Frances Shipley, scribe: Jim Ayers’ purs’ or: and Dorothy Borman, town crier. Some important events of this phase were the Jun or Dance, “I’ll Remember April,” and the plav, Spooks and Spasms. Everyone agreed that the most momentous ov-nt was the Junior-Senior Prom, “Stardust,” which was held on May II at the Marquette Pavilion. And now these underclassmen come to the fourth phase the full moon. This phase was ruled by Richard Kraft, king; Betty Lou Huelster adviser to the king; Paul Kloth, scribe; Donna Marie Blaze, purser - and Marilyn Erickson, the town crier. Mrs. Leah Lester and Mr. Hilmer Jacobson pulled the chariot along the path of the Milky Way. Th- theme of the Senior Dance was “Treasure Chest.” The annual play ended ‘ Bo ' t and Nuts” was also presented. The seniors consider their fourth and final phase a very successful one. “As the moon rises, we have risen.” - 9 -
