SENIOR ACTIVITIES nvmwrimwwifi 1 Left to right: Gordon Marett, Dean Hansen, Gaylord White, Lucille Atkinson, Gloria Chase, Vivian Conklin. Our senior year has been very eventful and extremely memorable. One of our first activities was the night pep rally to inspire school spirit for the big Wellington football game. Included in the preparations was the making of a life-size dummy to represent Vlfellington. This dummy was escorted to the park by the band. A snake dance was held on the way out and also around the huge bonfire. Then the foo:- ball boys threw tlW6lliI1gtOH,, into the fire and the student body joyously left the park. As is the custom, wc prepared a throne and engaged an orchestra for the dance fol- lowing the Homecoming game. VVith the aid of the colored lights in the new auditorium, we had a very beautiful kingdom for the queen to rule over for one night. So, with the crowning of the queen, the seniors' last football season ended. The presentation of the annual senior play provided both us and the community with a great deal of laughter and tears. .. VV e sponsored record dances after some of the home basketball games, which afford- ed pleasure to many and money to our treasury. By the end of the year, we all felt like one big happy family. So, when we dis- covered that Mr. Sobers' birthday was on a school day, we secretly went to great lengths to surprise him. With a great deal of success with the surprise party, we enjoyed a noon of refreshments and merriment. Of course, the two big events in our lives were baccalaureate and commencement. When we marched down the aisle, we realized that we were stepping from the sheltered high school days to the out-side world to work in what we were best suited. The events of our senior year will remain in our memories as we look back to the wonderful high school days spent in New London I-ligh. Sponsored by Burk Farm Equipment
