Senior Class History In the fall of 1944, 128 travelers entered Crescent City to make homes for themselves. Remember the early days of our residence? As our first civic duty, we elected James Shafferour chief official. We wandered around through the city on various roadways and, with the help of the older citizens and the law officers, usually reached our destinations. In cele- bration of our one-year's stay in our new surroundings, we had our first taste of real society at the party held in the Civic Auditorium near the end of our freshman year. During this time, our affairs were capably directed by Miss Dorothy Beckman. After our summer vacations, we returned to Crescent City. By this time we were getting better accustomed to our present way of life. Many from our number were gaining prominence and were elected to important civil offices. Our social life also gained momentum. A kiddie's party was held in the Civic Auditorium in December and a skating party was held at Guthrie's skating rink the latter part of March. During our third year of residence in Crescent City, we vied with the class of '47 for the social, scholastic. and athletic leadership of our city. Our population had now been reduced to 96, but we still carried on our duties well and maintained our prominence. This year we had as our main task earning enough money to fete the older citizens of our community who were taking their residence elsewhere. Money was earned by selling hot dogs and soft drinks at football and basketball games. Refreshments were also sold during noon hours. Many fond memories remain of the purchase of our class rings, of dances, and of the play, Spring Fever, which We presented on December 7. The junior-senior banquet and prom, held in the Civic Auditorium on May 16, was a fitting finale to an enjoyable and successful year. As we left Crescent City for our summer vacations, all thoughts were centered on the future year, the final year of our residence in this community. We, as the elite of Crescent City, now took up our residence in the mansions of 48th Avenue. James Shaffer was elected our civil leader for the fourth consecutive year. Miss Jean Mowls accepted the duty of being our council representative for the third year. As was fitting to our prominent position, we controlled the community social life by sponsoring such affairs as dances. assemblies, and pep rallies. Acting, another of our abilities, was revealed again at the presentation of the play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. This comedy was produced in the Civic Auditorium on April 30. Miss Edytha Trickett, city dramatics coach, ably directed this comedy. The 49th Streetersu honored the residents of 48th Avenue at the junior-senior banquet and prom. This gala social function was held in the Civic Auditorium on May 28. Members of the elite group journeyed to Detroit from Cleveland as their last fling together before their ranks were broken on June 3. We sincerely hope that we have done our duties well and that we may be long remembered as capable leaders of our beloved community, Crescent City. 27
