At a class meeting we elected Mr. Myers os our sponsor, and the following officers: president, Jack Hill; vice-president, Marjorie Miller; secretory. Yolande Tarter; treasurer, James Maretti; business manager, Kirk Isbell. Many members of the class helped the various organizations to succeed.

At our first meeting, we elected Mr. Funkhouser as our sponsor; Florence Pallai, president; Lester Smith, vice-president; Ray Brueckner, secretary; Ruth Brockman, treasurer. In September we invited the Juniors to a wiener roast and in October we enjoyed a Hallowe en party with the Freshies .
