enior Class History In September, 1943, the curtain rose on a drama of four acts when one hundred and four slightly bewildered freshies entered into an active high school career. Dick Britt, president, Eugene Miller, vice president, and Betty Brown, secretary, were the principal characters in Act One. The male members of the cast stole the show in Act Two. They were Virgil Cates, president, Bill Linden, vice president, and Marvin Dunn, secretary. Our one big event of the year was the party at which we entertained the freshmen. Bill Linden, for his portrayal as president in Act Three, deserves a word of praise. Helping him fulfill his executive duties were Jane Callahan and Marilyn Tate. Milton Olson acted as J ane's stand-in in the second scene. Talent was displayed in all fields this year from sports to art. To raise the necessary funds to support the best prom ever, we inaugurated a stunt show the night before homecoming and a penny carnival in the spring. Marjorie Gates reigned as queen of Shangri La, the theme of the prom. Act Four, when the rewards of four years' labor were reaped, we were ably piloted by Clifford Wilcox, president, Marjorie Gates, vice president, Ann Birky, secretary, and Jean Ann Kewley, treasurer. Our first undertaking of the year was the homecoming dance, at which Lougean Cutter was crowned queen. Bill Linden and Walter Byerly acted as co-captains of a successful football team. Editing The Reverie and Inkspot re- spectively were Margaret Brown and Lois Klump. The D.A.R. good citizenship award was won by Marilyn Tate. Louis Siebert wielded the gavel at Student Council meetings. Bob Thompson was voted by the members of the football squad as the ideal football participant.This is the first year such an award has been given. Many of the prom- inent clubs have had seniors as their leaders. Some of these are the N Club, Walter Byerly, the Science Club, Bob Lesher, the Dramatics Club and Thespians, Marilyn Tate, I.A.T.A., Dave Bridgwater, F.T.A., Lois Klump, the Latin Club, Ruth Leary, the Honor Society, Milton Olson. Jim Cloyd was president of the Band Organization, Jean Ann Kewley, Girls' Chorus, and Jack McQueen, Boys' Chorus. At Commencement Minnie Carter, Walter' Byerly, Jean Ann Kewley, Sue Williams, Joyce Mann, Margaret Brown, Dick Britt, and Marilyn Tate were the speakers for the class. Acts Three and Four were ably directed by Mr. Legg, Miss Springer, Mr. Diveley, and Miss 'I-loose. As the curtain draws to a close on an eventful drama of four years that will influ- ence the lives of the participants forever, the sentimental strains of Pomp and Cir- cumstance are heard from the orchestra pit. We, the class of 1948, take our departure with the hope that the audience will always be as receptive as this one has been.
