SENIOR COUNCIL ROVV I--Mr. Carmody, sponsor: Kenneth Nloorv, Charlern Cole David VVinturnit:, president: Esther Riley. Eugene Vogler. Miss Huhcr, sponsor. ROVV ll-Bill Calvert, Doris Hebert, Betty Lyons, Viola Biering. Barbara Bishotf. Cliff Wlilliams, Dick Pyles, Bob Rutherford. STEPPING OUT of school activities, the super-swishy seniors are stepping onto the first rung of the ladder of success. Cheerfully did they resign themselves to their fate, a stay in ancient C, S. H. S. Qdds against them and despite all handicaps, they gallantly took all hurdles in competent stride, Yes, we are stepping out of the building, but we leave with the knowledge that we are the first class to have graduated from new C, S. H. S. This year's council had plenty on the ball and was always on its toes for novel ideas and for initiating them, Conscientious councilmen were ever in the public eye carrying on faithfully for their class. Everything the council sponsored, from unique assemblies to dances, proved exciting and different. When the pompous and glamorous king and queen of the senior class presided over the Iunior-Senior Prom, only then did we realize that our senior year was near an end. A well rounded year, with our studies, outside activities, and our social life, had passed much too quickly. As Commencement night rolled around, the slave drivers of the senior class, Miss Huber and Mr. Carmody, felt justly proud to know that they had fulfilled their highest intentions. The outstanding class of 1940 had proved itself extremely well fitted to make a most special place for itself in this world. Qlder and wiser, they know all about intricate courses, midnight oil, and pouches under eyes. lt's a world of hard knocks, and each classman will get his share of jolts, but excellent training has been given and acquired during the high school days. 15
