SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS Miss Taylor C. Eckroat VV. Shumaker Bob Nelson Bob Ask Adviser President Vice President Secretary Treasurer As we walked through the halls, it was very evident that many students seemed to have a certain air about them that the others lacked. It didn't take long to learn that these were all members of the Senior Class of 1944. After attending four years at (). 11. S.. these seniors have at last attained the high goal that every student seeks the goal toward which every un- derclassman looks with envy. After looking back upon the record of these seniors, we realized that theirs is truly a record to be proud of. Many students have won honors in such activities as debate and declam. Others have excelled in dramatics or speech work. Still others have become outstanding in music, whether it be in the band, orchestra, or in the vocal groups. Several of these boys held places in the unforgetable State Champion Basketball Team, and since then they have worked up to become the stars of today. Others have become widely known for their outstanding work on the gridiron, and several records have been broken by these boys in the track meets. When we inquired of the members of this senior class, we found it hard to find a single one who had not participated in some way in the production of the Road to Freedom , which was presented two years ago. Many students continued in this type of work by appearing in the student assemblies, or in a High School Night program. We also discovered that the members of this class were outstanding not only in the extra- curricular activities, but also in their regular school work. They have won just as much dis- tinction in scholastic achievements as in any other field. We marvelled at the progress which these seniors have made since they started into grade school many years ago. Now that their high school days are about over, we know that they will find it hard to leave the school where they have spent so many happy hours and have form- ed so many new lasting friendships. As we looked over the records, we saw that the seniors have been very fortunate in having as their leaders officers, who have led them brilliantly anti capably throughout the past four years. Each one has been competent and efficient, and has represented his class exceedingly well. The privilege of being an officer of the senior class is one of the highest honors in high school, and is one of which a student may be extremely proud. Miss Mabel Taylor is the adviser of the Senior Class. She is the worthy successor to Miss Audrcn Farrar, who was the adviser for the first two years. Although it is rather difficult for an adviser to assume her responsibilities after a class is half way through high school, we soon learned that Miss Taylor quickly adapted herself to her position and capably guided the Senior Class in all their accomplishments. We arc sure that if he were given the opportunity, each member of the Senior Class would personally wish to extend his thanks to the class officers and the sponsors, Miss Farrar and Miss Taylor, for so willingly and helpfully guiding him through his high school years. Open wide success’ door. We're the c’ass of '44! Page 23
