SENIORS The last bridge of their high school life is about to be crossed by the seniors of “1955.” Looking back on their high school days they remember a lot of fun, work, and happy experiences. In spite of being new and inexperienced, the crossings of the freshman year were successful. Among them were the barn dance and the carnival. The officers of this year were: Tom Murphy. President; Keitha Shaull, Vice-president; Carol Webb, Secretary; Carl Burch. Treasurer; sponsors, Mrs. Sheldon and Mr. Claycomb. After this first successful year in high school they were off to cross the next bridge. Sophomore officers were: Keitha Shaull. President; Carl Burch, Vice-president; Shirley Maynard. Secretary; Marjie Mouser. Treasurer. Again to help them was Mrs. Sheldon with a new co-sponsor, Mrs. Hodgins. Building on a larger scale the class went on to give a smelt supper, have a paper drive, and hold a high school party for the freshmen. The next bridge led on to a busier year with more activities than ever when they presented their first play, “My Cousin From Texas,' under the direction of Miss Schram. Another activity was the sale of the ice cream at noon. Biggest and most important of all crossings was the Junior-Senior Prom, “Stairway to the Stars, ' the highlight of all the bridges that have been crossed. Junior officers were: President. Bill Nash; Vice-president. John Grettenberger; Secretary. Carol Webb; Treasurer. Georgia Yeoman; Sponsors Mrs. Sheldon and Mr. Mueller. On the trail toward the final goal the senior year was a happy and successful one. Mrs. Sheldon and Mr. Mueller again gave their helpful guidance this last year. Senior officers were President, John Grettenberger; Vice-president, Don Kleis; Secretary, Margie Cooper; Treasurer, Georgia Yeoman. Again came the excitement of presenting a play, “Green Valley. a fantasy in a typical mountaineer atmosphere. Bake Goods Sales and a Pancake Supper helped to make an easier crossing for the Senior Trip. With the close of their last year, the seniors crossed the last school bridge, graduation from high school. They looked forward with anticipation to the many bridges yet to cross to reach their goals and dreams in the coming years. [ 14]
