Seniors End Busy Year f. W' . - Left to Right-Abe Koser, Barbara Ranck, Marjorie Herr, Sam Dock. 8 The members of the senior class of 1950 returned to school in September 1949 ready and eager for their biggest year. Many activities and jobs loomed ahead for each person. With a year- book, the Washington trip and gradua- tion expenses in the near future, raising class funds seemed to be one of the major objectives. Mid-October found the seniors busy with hot dogs, hamburgers and oysters at the annual Community Exhibit stand. Good weather and large crowds made this venture a success. The next big activity of the year was the senior play, Huckleberry Finn, which was presented in period costumes. Again all efforts were successful and ticket sales broke previous records. Other financial efforts of the class in- cluded two basketball concessions and the sale of all-occasion cards. Soon it was time to get ads for the class yearbook. Then editorial work be- gan. Interspersed with this activity came other concerns: the choosing of the class motto, Hower and song, and the selection of name-cards. A new form of announcement was chosen, picturing the school building on the front. At last came the event to which everyone had been looking forward- the Washington trip. Those three days were filled with varied experiences. A few short weeks later, the seniors were seated on the stage for Class Day, using as their theme a luxury liner on its last night at sea, with the class members as the voyagers. Commencement followed swiftly and members of the Class of 1950 said their last good-by's to Mount Joy High School.
