Senior Class History and Dick Paige, first team in County and second team in Sectionals. George Long and Bob Hull both received honorable mention. Around this time we were thinking about the jobs we were going to get and also our Senior clothes. Then it was time for the class play, everyone trying out parts, but not enough to go around. We wish to thank Mr. Craig for working so hard with us. The play State Fair was a big success. Finally came the Senior trip. We headed for Chicago early Sunday morning, May 1, and spent three wonderful days in Chicago seeing the sights, and shopping. Then, Tues- day afternoon, May 3, we started for home. Mr. and Mrs. Cortner, Mr. Craig, Mr. Wright, and others made it possible for us to have the fun we had. Thanks a million to all of you. After the trip, we had only eighteen days which passed so fast that Baccalaureate was here before we knew what happened. This was the first time we wore our gowns and we really felt like SENIORS. Monday night the banquet, Tuesday Award Day, and then Thursday, May 19, the Prom. The gym did look nice and it was fun for everyone. Friday was Senior Day . Saturday was the day we all had been waiting for-Commencement. Commencement also meant more than just leaving the Home, it meant leaving friends, our schooldays, and other joys we have had. May 21, 1955, we graduated and were ready and willing to be on our own, but we will always remember Morton and what it means to us.
