SENIOR HISTORY We Forty-Niners began our high school careers under the guidance of Mr. Knoles, our counselor, who helped us through our three years at Paly High. The big decision of our Sophomore year was the selection of our class ring, the crest of a Viking Ship, with the letters of Palo Alto High School beneath it. George Kwong and Standish Mitchell were our first elected officers, and under their leadership, the class gave a Spring Carnival along with the Iuniors. Certainly the biggest athletic event was the Sophomore football victory over Sequoia especially because the Varsity lost. In our Iunior year, there was the big Iunior Party in May, with swimming, volley ball, and dancing. Youth day '48, during which our class took over the town, was very suc- cessful, and was participated in by all. Snowball Talboy was all P. A. L. for the 13O's. Iudy Bolender was chosen for Girls' State and Skip Crist for Boys' State. Lew Mitchell, Kathy Byler, and Marceline Gray were our oflicers for this year. . Another year rolled around, and we were seniors - the mighty 49'ers. Snowball' Talboy again distinguished himself by being basketball all P. A. L. for the Varsity team. Skip Crist, Phil Casaroli, Mike Heraty ,and Hod Ray. Ir. made names for themselves in football. Hal Burdick established the now well-known Paly Players and directed them in their production of George Washington Slept Here. Elizabeth- Benson and the trio - Ioan Becker, Ann Frost, and Peggy Bledsoe - credited their school and class with their musical talent. Last but not least, it was wonderful to walk in and out of senior court. Many of us were Privilege Card holders. Marceline Gray, Barbara Park, and Carol Strain did their duties as class officers. Then there was the Senior Party to think about, our Commencement Ball and Graduation. lt's all over, but we'll never forget. 17

EBI SLP' 5 Q C5 f 813 1 1 .f Q X, Q vm V bi-,fl II In T, l X09 .M Q ftl 1 I ouR COUNSELCR DL i It is customary for the senior counselor to write a few words of farewell to the graduating class each year. These words should contain pearls of great xxisdom and prophecy about the brave new world you are all going out to meet They should urge you on to the fulfillment of great ambitions, dreams and achievements. They should point out to you that the future lies in your hands - to make of it what you will. They should point out to vou the precarious condition of our civilization in this atomic age, and the tremendous responsibilities which older people have thrust upon you. Hou ever you are all pretty well aware of these things, or should be, after tu elve years of schooling. If you aren't, these farewell words of vour counselor won't help much. Therefore, let me say what seems best to me It is Just this, Goodbye and more than good luck. The best fortune in the xx orld 1S my wish for you! I shall remember you for a long time, and I hope vou xx ill always have a warm spot in your hearts for Paly High! TULLY C. KNOLES, IR. 16 ,N
