QQSENI R CLASS HIST RY 1 We returned to school in the fall with an enrollment of forty- eight which in a very short time decreased to forty. Our most hearty welcome to the Senior-High School department was our initiation, the Freshman Reception. , ' Our class made an excellent showing in the school's sports, with Gordon Paynter and Gerald Littlefield on the baseball team, Russell Elliott and Gerald Littlefield in Soccer, and Robert Hunt and Martin Joyce on the track team. Three members of the class participated in the prize speaking contest, being June Crowley, Betty Mewer, and Edmund Rowell. Betty Mewer won first prize for the girls. Alice Downs, Bernard Emery, Valerie Bean, and Betty Mewer were elected to the Mergus Club. Valerie had a prominent part in the play given by the club which was NDon't Darken My Door.H Bernard Emery and Robert Hunt represented our class in the school- boy patrol. They were very faithful in their work which is quite a task, when the school is situated on such a busy thoroughfare. The following were our class officers: Alice Downs -------------- President Bernard Emery ------------ Vice President Betty Mewer--+ ----------- Secretary Robert Hunt -------------- Treasurer sopsomonp : The beginning of this year was occupied in making preparations for the Freshman Reception in which all members of the class participated in some manner. This temptation was too good to be left alone. The next successful activity on our program was a dance in the Town Hall for the benefit of the Sophomore and Junior Class. A large attendance was welcomed. Members participating in the annual prize speaking contest were June Crowley, Betty Mewer, Virginia Jones, and William Reeves. Betty Mewer was again chosen prize speaker. All other students taking part did very well, and certainly proved what talent they really did have.
