CLASS HISTORY Finally we came to our Junior year. We felt pretty superior by this time, for only the Seniors were above us. Our homeroom was in 27 with Mr. McKenna as our keeper. From the beginning of the year we knew we would have to work for our Prom money. Our President was Don Barto and a new comer to the line of officers was Don Crawford, who became Vice President. Philip Chapman was again Secretary and Lowell Peterson counted our pennies. Our group of girls grew smaller and smaller with Judy King, Shirley Hubble, Emogene Jordan, Dorothy Shears and Delsie Shaffer leaving. This was also Jirrmie Baker and Don Hall's last year at Perry. We popped popcorn and sold hot dogs like mad every Friday night so that we could meet our Prom expenses. When the Prom finally came, we had one of the nicest Proms Perry has had. It was held on May 17 at the Mentor Harbor Yachting Club with Russ Harmon pouring forth delightful music. It was a wonderful year ending with a picnic at Metropolitan Park. We might take this opportunity to say that a few of our boys, five to be exact, went for a little trip as soon as school was out. From all the stories and pictures that we heard and saw, we can certainly recommend Brockton, Massachusetts as the place to go. Finally that long awaited time came. We stepped inside the school in September with a glorious feeling.. We were Seniors! At last. It had been a lorg struggle, but we were now in our last year. The fall and winter months flew by and our boys finished up their last year of football and basketball. At the Homecoming Game, Vida Loveland was crowned Queen by Don Crawford, the foot-baI I Captain. Jessie Clark and Jane Peterson were the attendants. Our Officers for the last year included Don Barto as President. Philip Chapman was promoted to Vice President. Dorothy Jackopen was Secretary and Carle Christian was again Treasurer. Our Student Council represe tatives were Marge Smith and Don Crawford Our class was noticeable short of girls, so Ellen Gragg and Nellgean Keener were welcome additions, which brought our total to twenty-two members. Feeling quite ambitious, we sponsored the Christmas Dance for the second time. Our Annual was started early in the fall. School pictures were taken and we had our graduation pictures taken in January at Hunter's Studio in Painesville. Cap and gown measurements were taken and graduation time seemed closer. On ‘'arch 14, three of our Senior girls were honored when they were chosen by the student body as Queen and Attendants for the Seventeenth Annual Firemen's Ball. Ellen Gragg was chosen Queen and Vida Loveland and Lois Frost were her Attendants. The time between now and our last walk down the aisle is short. On May 31, Baccalaureate services will be held in the auditorium. The big day for us is June 2nd. It's the day we're all looking forward to, although we're all feeling a bit sorry that it's coming, too.We will all feel very proud, though, when we have our diplomas in our hands and the last strains of The Land of Hope and Glory ringing in our ears, for we will take our place in the world as graduates of Perry High School. 1 Sixteen
