Honor Student Seven Successive Semesters: Darlene McConiga. When we entered N. T. H. S. in ’48 we numbered fifty-eight. The sophomores gave us an initiation party which we took in our stride. We chose our class colors, motto, and flowers and elected Mickey Wilson for president. In September, ’49, we returned fifty-four strong as “ritzy sophs,” and chose El-win Johnson for our president. We had eight members to represent us in sports. The next year we returned fifty strong as juniors—proud upperclassmen — with Richard Blix as our president. Our class play, “Out On a Limb,” was a great success, and we gave a lovely prom in return for the Christmas party the seniors gave us. As seniors we number forty-two with three big projects before us—the publication of the 1952 “Old Nokomis,” our class play, and the crowning achievement, graduation. We shall long remember the lovely prom the juniors gave us, and we do greatly appreciate all the favors and chores the juniors did for us during the last days in high school. N. T. H. S. and the teachers will soon forget us, but we will never forget them. ★ ★ ★ Senior B. M. J. S. FIFTEEN
