Now on our journey let's stroll into the auditorium where much of the story of the class of '44 has unfolded. Look closely! You can almost see some scenes from our minstrel and our plays. We had talent in our class, everyone was aware of that since we made our first big public appearance as juniors in the play L'Midnight. There's Bill Burrows, over there, still remembering his part as Leonard, the colored chauffeur. But our senior year has been the biggest and best. We won second prize in Stunt Night for our courtroom scene. Then we had a mysterious code, S.S.S. '43, it referred to the minstrel. The auditorium was packed that night, and some people were even standing. Kay Lemon brought down the house when she appeared in a football uniform topped by a green ballet skirt. You've already met Bud Fisherg he was in it. Bill Burrows, blackfface again, this time as an endman. Anil Jack Murrziy, Elton Barber, Ed Richards, Betsy Naylor, Phyl Seidler, Joan Kinney, and a lot more of our class doing specialties and chorus work. You can almost see Tom Masanotti standing there on a ladder painting the backdrop. There was the senior play, too, and also the assembly program we gave. All were large successes, but how could they be anything else with such a class? There are snapshots of the members of our class so that you may become better acquainted with them. Besides that, there are superlatives. It was hard to make a a choice, but we selected the prettiest girl, the best dancer, the most likely to succeed and all the rest. We'd like to introduce them to you. We're .anxious to know whether you agree with our choiceg we think you will.
