SENIOR. CLASS HISTORY E ZBPH As this is the last official project of our class, it seems only right to go back to the first of our careers as high school students and review some of the important parts of our past four years. On September l, in 47, twenty-six ener- getic students entered dthe Neponset High School. We elected as our officers: President, Elizabeth Golby, Vice President, Pat Kaine, Secretary-Treasurer, Patty Nortong Booster Club Members, Carol Blake and Donald Crock- ettg and Sponsor, Miss Hailey. We had not been in school very long when we were initiated by the sophomores. During the first year we sponsored the Valentine Party and helped with many things throughout the year. Other than participating in all our classes the boys joined F.F.A. and the girls joined F.H.A. and became active members. Two of our members were elected cheerleaders: Elizabeth Golby and Pat- ty Norton. Three boys, James Bennett, Pat Kaine, and Otto Dobeeke, received letters in football. The year went along very well with such things as music, athletics and dramatics attracting us. Returning as sophomores, in 48, we felt more at home and we elected as our leaders: President, Carol Blake, Vice President, Caryl Verboutg Secretary-Treasurer, Tom Pratt, Boos- ter Club Members, Beverly Gould and Pat Kaineg and Sponsor, Miss Hailey. Several mem- bers that we had lost were Shirley Buckman, James Anderson, Alice Evans, Otto Dobeeke, and Glenn Nichols. This year we sponsored the Freshman Initiation and again were very ac- tive in F.H.A., F.F.A., sports, music contests, and dramatics. Three of our members were elected cheerleaders this year: Elizabeth Golby, Regina Golby, and Patty Norton. Boys receiv- ing letters in football were Pat Kaine, James Bennett and Wilbur Bennett. Those receiving letters in basketball were Pat Kaine and James Bennett. During the summer, following our sophomore year, we sold concessions at the baseball games. We did this to earn money for our junior year. In the year 1949, as we were growing more in knowledge, we felt as if we were a part of the school and it was our duty to be proud of our achievements and realize the importance of our schooling. During our junior year, Eliza- beth Golby served as Presidentg Thomas Pratt at Vice Presidentg Beverly Gould as Secretary- Treasurerg Carol Blake and James Bennett as Booster Club Membersg and Miss Stengel was our sponsor. We have lost three more members: Phyllis Berry, Irven Bitting and Harry Gould. During our junior year we sponsored the St. Patrick's Party and the second semester we began work on the Junior-Senior Prom. The class participated in all exrta-curricular ac- tivities. J. Bennett, W. Bennett, D. Crockett, P. Kaine, and T. Pratt received letters in foot- ball. J . Bennett, W. Bennett, P. Kaine, and T. Pratt received letters in basketball. Boys re- ceiving letters in track were James Bennett and Pat Kaine. Our three members were elect- ed cheerleaders again this year. In the fall of 1950 we were nearing our prom- ised land of learning. We were getting ready to take our place in the great world. Pat Kaine was elected as our leader in our last year to- gether. His assistants were Vice President, James Bennettg Secretary, Carol Blake, Treas- urer, Elizabeth Golby, Booster Club Members, Caryl Verbout and Donald Crockettg Reporter, Donna Swearingeng Sentinel, Bonnie Kemer- lingg Sponsor, Mr. Luther. We have gained one new member, Ruth Jury, who came from Princeton. The members are again out for mu- sic, dramatics, athletics, etc. James Bennett was captain of the football team and Pat Kaine and James Bennett were co-captains of the basket- ball team. The same girls and boys received letters in athletics as in the junior year. In January of this year Donald Crockett joined the Navy. We worked harder than ever our last year because we realized that before long we would not be a group anymore but individuals joining with other groups. The Christmas Party, magazine sales, and The Senior Dance were our means of making money for our class trip. Our big project this year has been our an- nual. Since it is one of our last group projects we are working our hardest to make it a great success. We will leave our school, of course, but our spirit will remain for many years. Our group will divide into many parts but we will always remember our gay, carefree days at N.H.S. This page sponsored by -------------- Nash Sales, Kewanee, Illinois
