Senior Class History On September 1, 1950, thirty-one wide-eyed Freshmen entered the halls of N.A.C.H.S. After getting acquainted we elected Allan Waeltz Class President and chose Mrs. Morgan and Mr. Merideth as our sponsors. Then the day came when we were initiated into high school, which proved to be fun. At the end of our first year of high school we found that Edward Juenger, Judy Covert and Eugene Weber had left our class. Ronald Wagner was elected President of our Sophomore Class and Mr. Givens and Mrs. Morgan were our sponsors. We continued to sell popcorn to make money. Louise Birkner, Rose Bruno and Norma Herzog dropped out of the class. When we became upperclassmen Don Dudeck was chosen as President and Mr. Harris and Miss McKemie sponsors. In November we presented our class play, “A Ready Made Family”. We then began planning for the Junior-Senior Prom and selected “Up In Central Park” for the theme. We sold coke and candy to finance the prom.
