of l94I CLASS OFFICERS H. Raymond Winner George Mingin Alberta Feigley Louis Laletas SENIOR CLASS ,HISTORY In the fall of 1939, we, the present senior class, entered this brand new shining high school as the first bewildered freshmen, but the Student Council Welcome Dance made us feel at home in a short time. The first Freshman dance ever held in the high school was on Friday, the 13th of May. We decorated our gym with black cats and named our super- stition dance a Freshman Frolic. In our first year we also remember the picnic at Camp Ockanickon. As Sophomores we became a little bolder. We were the First class to hold an all-class party in the gym. Our dance, the Sophomore Spring Spree was also a huge success. In November as Juniors we got into the hunting season spirit, put on our hunting caps, and came out to the junior Hunting Hop another successful dance. Christmas rolled around and we received little boxes that contained the long awaited class ring. The climaxing event of the year, the junior- Senior Prom, a brilliant and gala evening affair, was held in the gym which was decorated as the bottom of the sea. Three years have flown by and we returned this year the wise old seniors.. Our activities this year have been many, including The Candy Cane Capers, our Christmas danceg the annual Spelling Beeg a successful senior play, Janey's One Track Mind g and our long-awaited Washington Excursion. During these activities members of home, room 13 distinguished them- selves by selling the most tickets, and home room 26 holds the record for IOOM, bankers throughout the four years. Our activities are not yet complete. We look with great interest and ex- pectation to the best Class Night and Graduation yet. 11
