Unfortunately, during the first quarter two members of the class quit. We were given a party by the Seniors and later in the year we took them on a skating party. Our class colors were red and white. Our flower was the red rose. Our faculty consisted of Mrs. Johnson, Miss Schmedding, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Daugherty, and Mrs. Griffin. Miss Schmedding and Mrs. Griffin were co-sponsors of our class. We had a part in the school carnival. Carita Bettels and Jim Gengler were ourcandidates for king and queen. We had a wonderful time. Having passed our year as Freshmen, we stumbled back again, being recognized as Sloppy Sophomores. When the roll was called, we were present to answerg but during the year we had the misfortune of losing Gerald Kroll who had enrolled in another school. We had part in several of the school activities. Those serving as our in- structors were Mr. Johnson, Miss Schmedding, and Mr. Callendar. We had a happy and successful year together. We again came to this beloved institution as Jolly Juniors. We considered our- selves lucky having gained a new member, Roger Jurgensmeyerg but unfortunately, we lost Bill Hoover and Boyd Snider during the first semester. Our class colors were dark green and lime green. We gave the play ei1tit1edg One wild Night, with everyone having a job to fulfill. We were thrilled in being privileged to go to St. Louis on our Junior-Senior Trip. Mr. Higgins was ouribus driver and we were sponsored by Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, Miss Schmedding, and Miss Lawson. In the fall of 1954, we again found our way back to M. H. S. We were proud to be called Dignified Seniors. Mrs. Johnson was our sponsor. We sponsored several of the school activities, including Freshman-Senior Party, Halloween Party, Christmas program, and our play. We have yet to choose our robes, and announcements. We are also working hard on our yearbook. We are looking forward to going to Chicago, Illinois on our Junior-Senior Trip. We will be sponsored by Mr. and Mrs, Johnsgnl Now as our parting message, i'lVlay,God Bless You Allf'
