The Scarlet and Black History of Class of 1955 Continued On the next page was an account of the freshman initi- ation. This was perhaps one of the happiest days of the sophomore year, for we inflicted on the innocent freshmen such penalties as we had received in our first year. The remainder of the year passed quickly, and after an enjoyable summer vacation, we returned to school, juniors, glad that at last we were considered upper-classmen. I slowly turned the page beginning the junior year,and gazed into the likenesses of our class officers, who were elected October ll, 1953. Charles Hendee was President,and Davidene Clemens, Vice-President. On the second page was a list of events during our junior year, the most outstanding of which were the junior play, 'The Yellow Shadow,U and the J-Hop. The days and weeks flew swiftly by, and then vacation once more. Seniors! As we entered school the following September, we were filled with the realization of our importance. We organized at once and on the first page of the senior year, were the class officersj Robert Dorrell, President, was ably assisted by Keith Pearson, Vice-President, Ella Ander- sen, Secretaryg and Jack Thompson, Treasurer. Spring vacation arrived the last week in March,and af- ter the short but welcome rest, the seniors returned,fi1led with plans for the final class functions,the first of which was the senior play,nDulcy,' presented May 10.Following the Play and. that been came the Junior-Senior Banquet, an affair of May 16, last but not least, the Prom. We realized with regret this would be our last school dance. And now, commencement, the goal towards which we have working these four, happy years. And as we leave this building tonight,perhaps for the last time, I hope each and every one of the class of 1955 will remember its motto, 'A winner never quits and a quitter never wins.' ----Lois Merryman Page Thirty-two
