Moments we remember are of the many parties, band contests, Christmas and Spring Operettas, basketball, track, and cheerleading. These moments were made into memories as Mr. Floyd French spoke at our graduation. --Farewell, grade school. In 1957, we advanced to high school. We were eighteen terrified freshmen; however, we survived the book-carrying routines and penny pushing contests, along with the other initiation stunts, and held our first election. The winning candidates were Bob Redenius, president; Bill Holmes, vice-president; Les Dahl, secretary-treasurer; and Pat Stetson, reporter; with Mrs. Kathryn Crowson as sponsor. We held an all school Valentine's Party that year. After an all too fast summer, we found ourselves sophomores. Mrs. Arlene Molinerola and Mr. Vernon Luther took the sponsorship of our class. The big wheel of the class was Jim Hill, spare tire was Larry Pratt, minute girl was Marilyn Papacek, money spender was Susan Gerrond, and columnist, Audrey Bennett. The Homecoming Dance was our big project for the year. Another summer, even shorter, and we were juniors--upperclassmen, with all the rights of upperclassmen. Mrs. Molinerola and Mr. Luther took over as sponsors again. The students who ruled the roost were Susan Gerrond, president; Pat Stetson, vice-president; Bill Holmes, secretary; and Mary Swearingen, treasurer. The Junior-Senior Prom was the highlight of the year. We used Evening in Paris as our theme. Then came the big year, after a long wait,--or was it short? We became seniors. The activities piled up furiously! Under the guidance of the class officers, Jim Hill, Larry Pratt, Marilyn Papacek, Pat Stetson, and our sponsors, Mr. Luther, Mrs. Perry, Miss Kurz, and Mr. Lavelle, our year rolled along smoothly. We had to start to raise money for our annual and class trip; so we undertook several projects, most of which were successful to a high degree. We will always remember the magazine and candy sales. At our senior dance we honored the parents of the entire student body. The senior play, Bull In the China Shop, was a lot of work, but we also had fun. Our sincere thanks go to Mrs. Chesnutt, our director. Then came those hectic last weeks,--caps and gowns, finals, and addressing our graduation invitations. Finally, Baccalaureate, and then Commencement, one following on the heels of the other. And the realization struck us--we were through! As we leave the neat brick building on Harlan Street, we wish to thank all our teachers, from first grade through twelfth. 19
