For Eve years of their lives at Murray, this year's seniors have waited for the day they could choose a homecoming queen from their class. These seniors are ready to begin a full night of campaign- ing for their candidate. The first row, from left to right, are Lorayne Knippen- berg, Judy Baker, Cheryl Grecco, and Diane Olson. Seated on the couch are Joan Karner, Ginny Maas, Linda Nie- mela, Linda Hillstrom, Bob Meyer, and Kathy Sundstrom. This year's Senior Class Play, You Can't Take It with You, was ch-osen by the speech classes and Dramatic Club. Here, Susan Hunt, left, Bruce Durant, and Erin O'Brien are perfecting their love scene. The Senior Class Play is a project undertaken by the whole senior class. Casting for the play begins in November. A double cast is usually chosen to allow more to participate. By the end of January the play is ready to present.

Looking torward to the day ot departure for the senior class trip to Washington D.C. are X., these tour seniors, Dave Hallen, Vicki Bone, Sally Souther, and George Willard. Among other things, seniors visited the Washington Monument, the White House, and Mount Vernon. They also saw the Lincoln Memorial and spent a night traveling on a steamer on Chesapeake Bay. Important to the functioning of the senior class are its otticers. Beginning at the lett, Roger No- vak, treasurer, Ingrid Giving, secretary, Linda Olson, vice-president, and Gary Anderson, presi- dent, are very efficient and seem to be getting their jobs done without much trouble. Caps and gowns, a graduation present from the class to the school, and a graduation speaker are among the many items of business to be decided by this group.

Just returning to school from their daily college math class at Hamline University are, from lett to right, Beth Johnson, Ron Kuhn, Kathy Thoennes, and Dave Hallen. These tour were chosen by recommendation ot the tac- ulty and by scores on a test taken last year for this scholastic honor. They must also be from a small select group called the developmental class. The developmental class or D class is an excellent course in science and math started in the freshman year for students with natural ability in those fields. This year's D class is the second one to graduate from Murray. Challenged In Science And Math These heads are bent in concentra- tion over a test in Miss Smith's solid geometry class. This course is divided into two parts. During the first semester stu- dents study solid geometry, and during the second semester they study trigo- nometry. Besides learning math, Miss Smith's students learn how to reason, which is important even it they are not headed for a career involving math. 28 Seniors Jo-Ann Merrill and Sherman Sandgren are experimenting with gyroscopic precession in Mr. Marengo's tourth period physics class. With the aid ot a freely ro- tating stool, Sherman Sandgren causes him- selt to move in either direction with only the aid ot the spinning wheel. This is iust one ot the many experiments Mr. Marengo uses to present physics in an interesting and easily understood manner to his classes. ,nw
