Freshman Class History We freshmen started our journey through high school on August 28, 1944. It is -ap characteristic of freshmen to 'be green, and d-on't think we weren't green at first. However, we took all the teasing of the upperclassmen good-naturedly, and soon we be-came familiar with our new surroundings. Early in the year, we chose our leaders for the year. We selected Raymond English as President, Dale Phelps as Vice-President, and Joan Edwards as Secretary-Treasurer. Pat Mc- Quay, Billy York, and Tommy Cavender were chosen to represent our class on the Student Coun-cil. We were assisted in our journey by oufr sponsors, Mr. Blacker and Miss Crutchfield. We're all looking forward to next year, when we hope to be able to pass on some of those practical jokes which were played on us this year. So it's So long till then.

J UNIOR-SENIOR PROM The senior class, faculty, board menrlbers, and their wives Were guests of the junior class at the annual J unior-Senior Prom, which was held in the gymnasium on April 20, 1945, at 8:00 p. m. ' For this event, the gymnasium was attractively decorated to repre- sent the garden of a Mexican hacienda. A canopy of crepe paper covered the garden, and the lights were dimmed to give the effect of moonlight. Mexican trees and flowers line-d the garden on either side. As each guest entered the garden, he received a dance program book, which was in the shape of a Mexican senor's som'brero. On the stage, which represented the balcony of the hacienda, was Rowland Fenton's orchestra, which furnished music for dancing. Appropriate refresh- ments consisting of punch and sandwiches were served during the eve- ning. Everyone present wishes to express 'his gratitude to the juniors for a delightful evening.
