SENIOR TREASURE L RGE FTER FOUR YEARS WORK Standing at the main entrance of Mynderse Academy, holding open the sacred Senior Doors are class officers Ray Frappolli, Vice-Pres., Rod Verkey, Treas.g Sally Milner, Sec.g Cliff Tompkins, Pres. SENIOR CLASS ADVISORS-Helping Seniors through the stages of seniorilis are Mrs. Louise Shannon, Mr. Raymond Becker, Mr. Lloyd Brown, Mrs. Dorothy Lee, Mr. Earl Saunders. We, as Seniors, are reverently closing the lid of our treasure chest, soon to be set aside as we board our ship, The '64, to continue our voyage on the sea of life. Before We close it, we take one last look at our chest of memories. At the bottom we find a crumpled schedule, car- ried by one of us during his first week at Mynderse Academy. Stuck to the schedule is an old lollipop which must be the one received after singing 'tOld MacDonald at Freshman orientation. The next layer of memories contains left-over decorations from our dances. There is a pink cupid from Cupiris in the Snow, a paper banjo from Flap- per Daze, a three dimensional bird from Oriental Evening, and a huge travel poster from Around the World. Nestling in a corner is the Frosh-Soph Tourna- ment loving cup inscribed with our class year. We earned this with our productions of The Beatnik and the Bard, which tied with the Sophomore play in 1960, and The Money Tree, which brought us a victory the following year. lnside the trophy is a well marked script of Best Foot Forward, a momento of our thespian efforts as Seniors. Scattered throughout the chest are the letters our boys earned for their athletic accomplishments on ,l.V. and Varsity teams. Also, there is a long list of our class members who have appeared on the monthly honor rolls. Pictures from the Junior Tal- ent Show are scattered across the top. Another trophy-the one we received for having the highest percentage of classmen who know the words to the 4'Star Spangled Bannerf' the 4'Alma

All those neatly stacked small boxes contain the individual achievements of each class member, be- cause, although We have a great deal of class unity and have shown considerable cooperation, each of us has pursued individual interests. Guarding our treasure is an over-stuffed dog which one of us earned as a Senior during our suc- cessful magazine sale to help pay for this yearbook. He is holding two programs, one for the bacca- laureate service and one for commencement. A tassel hangs from his ear. We can not see everything that belongs in the treasure chest for we have removed knowledge, ex- perience, and character. We are not leaving it empty, however. We leave our mistakes along with our achievements, so that those who follow may ben- efit. We leave the guidance of our teachers and our advisors. Finally, we leave our inexpressible appre- ciation for those who have helped us open and fill the chest which we now close. Kathy Hilbert Class of 1964
