Practically every phase of school life in Oceanside has felt the effect of boosting and cooperation by the members of the beginning senior class. In athletics, the class was we 1 1-represented on the boys’ varsity teams and girls’ honor teams and many of its membe rs have made outstanding personal records. Several beginning seniors figure prominently in the school publications and dramatic presentations. For its comparative small size, the class has contributed generously to the Oceanside music departments, including the orchestra, band and glee clubs. Numerous beginning seniors have consistently been on the honor roll for their fine scholastic achievements. CLASS OFFICERS This year, the class sponsored several successful social events. Varying in theme and well attended, they were: the Junior Hop , a tea dance and a sport dance. Two of the students, who started, at the beginning of the year, as class officers, were elected vice-president and treasurer of the General Organization in January and have since devoted their energies to the school government.
