CLASS HISTORY During our three years in the Senior High School our country has been at war. Despite this handicap we feel that we have achieved a great deal in our high school career and regardless of the war we have pleasant pictures that will always have an important place in our memories. Since our Sophomore year, we have given eleven boys to Uncle Sam, a fact for which we are justly proud. As Sophomores we displayed very good sportsmanship under the mighty hands of the Seniors. Steven Romanio was unaminously elected as our class president. As our chapel programs progressed it was discoverd that the baby class really had some very outstanding talent. Keeping up the usual sophomore routine we gave the Seniors a reception which helped show our gratitude to them. Unlike other sophomore classes, many of us purchased the new class rings. In the Junior year as in our previous year, there were many new teachers with which to get acquainted. At our first class meeting we elected Dale Jewart as class president and Paul Wylie was chosen to represent our class on the Student Activity Council, in place of Herb Dolaway who left us to serve in the armed forces. The top interest of this year was the Prom to which the seniors were cordially welcomed to the best of our ability. We felt badly seeing them leave us, but it was a nice feeling to be taking their distinguished places. Dale Jewart was chosen for the honorary position of president for a second term. The Magazine Campaign was successfully carried on and many seniors received the Curtis Certificate. Just as the Hop highlighted our activities of the sophomore year, the “Prom” in our junior class, the “Tiger Lily” marked our ability as seniors. We have tried very hard to make all three of those a success and it is our hope that we have done so. We successfully produced “Through the Keyhole” in December for the entertainment of the public. The football banquet was indeed a banquet for champions and it was surely super. It proved that we were tops in football as well as being superiors when six of our classmates received gold footballs. At the Sophomore Hop we were cordially honored and the junior, proved to be marvelous receptionists. Class Night proved to be fun and the Baccalaureate exercises were both interesting and instructive. As the Commencement exercises draw to a close we look backward and we wish to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Hardy and the faculty for their unlimited efforts and understanding and we hope that in the years to come we will be able to make the best of our education. Before we close, we wish especially to thank Miss Doolin who showed such great interest in us in our senior year at the times when we most needed it. Twenty-four
