Ol coursewe were sorta quu?l our first two years because we were getting acquainted but now.. Because he was such a good leader, John Ohlcr was elected president both our Freshman and Sophomore years. And then to that Junior year when Gale Sharer was elected president, Bob Riggle, vice president, Carol McCullough, secretary, and Eleanor Crow, treasurer. The sign DANGER HIGH 'EXPLOSIVESH was the term in use, especially after the Junior Play which was DYNAMITE, lt was one of the biggest hits ever produced at M. H. S. The play was Snafu or Sit- uation Normal-All Fouled Up. The money from the play was used for the simply wonderful Junior-Senior Prom. VVe are well represented in sports. In fact one of i OFFICERS BOARD OF DIRECTORS the boys who always comes through with at long run in football is Dick Hanson, a member ot the Junior class. He wasn't the only one who could make the opponent DE'l'OUR as there were also Don Brooks, Dick Fos- ter, fl.ynn Jenks, Cappy Sharer, Jlitjllll Mobnrg, john Ohler, Reuben Bigger, Bruce Bailey, Dave Fetherston, and Mike Gardner. Several boys on the basketball squad were also from the junior Class. The juniors are well represented in all organizations. VVe can give a lot of thanks for the GREEN LlGH'l ' class to our adv,iso1's, Miss Mae Anderson and Mr. Raeburn Rehn. So there you have. Chief, 2,1 sorta idea of our class and the reason for our going through a stop light. Hope we don't get a ticket. ' Signed, 'I' nic jumons,
