The year of 1957 is the one in which we were frequently referred to as Jolly Juniors. We began to work together nicely with Judith Lotts, President, Rebecca Perkins, Vice-President, Sandra Hylton, Secretary, Betty Reynolds, Treasurer and Doris Fainter, Reporter. This is one thingthat we are indeed very proud of and which we have met on our way to becoming seniors. Duringthis year we proved to be sup- plied with actors and actresses because much talent was discovered when Aunt Til- lie Goes to Town, the Junior Play, was presented with the whole class aiding in the production. Weren't we busy though selling pen and pencil sets, selling note cards, having bake sales and more bake sales. Juniors everywhere doing everything. Then the day arrived, our rings had come! There was excitementthat lasted for weeks and everyone knew how proud we were of our rings. Finally, it was here, our night, our Junior and Senior Prom, with the theme The Stairway to the Stars, stars dangling from the sky, stars everywhere, those dreamy dresses, the Commanders, the hand- some tuxs, the starry eyes and a haunting perfume of flowers. It was a magical night as we danced beneath stars and those smiles . Yes, we all agree that our prom was the most beautiful and successful one in years. To Miss Campbell and Miss Cobean, our untiring sponsors, we owe much for their advice, inspiration and assistance so willingly rendered us. So it was with mingled joy and sorrow that we began to look forward to our Senior year. We sat up straight, opened our eyes wide and blinked hard. We were Seniors! How those years had rushed by! We took our new place in chapel, marching into as- sembly with the whole student body standing to honor us. We shouldered our new re- sponsibilities gracefully for it was we who were giving NBHS her major officers. The strong and capable hands of the Seniors have worked hard to guide each organization to its highest goal. We were greatly diminished in size from 120 to 52 but still we were determined to improve each shining hour and so we studied hard and displayed our talents on the way to the goal line. To make sure that we would have asuccessful year we elected Winston Whitmore, President, Wesley Shepherd, Vice -President, Gale Pearson, Secretary, Robert Wines, Treasurer, and Philip Ogden, Reporter. For our sponsor this year we were very for- tunate in having Mrs. Burks who for us was willing to shoulder another responsibility- directing our senior play. She was always willing to give the assistance and advice we needed in accomplishing our goal, No Victory Without Effort! With these old memories, some new ones come, too. We still have the trip to Washington, the Senior Play, the Junior -Senior Prom, and, of course, what we have worked for, dreamed of, lived for ............ but the thing we dread, GRA- DUATION. We, the Class of '59, regretfully leave NBHS with that glad to graduate, sorry to leave feeling. As we go on our way there are some things we will forget, but the memories of never forgotten friendships and worth-while experiences of NBHS will often come back to bless and cheer us on our way as the years go by.
